My week sucked, then it was good, then it sucked again. And at some point a dude I follow on Google Plus (this dude) recommended that I do an Amy Grant song. I thought about it but then I remembered that this week sucked and for some reason Amy Grant didn’t seem appropriate. So instead I chose We Like to Party by Vengaboys. I like the idea of happiness being right around the corner. And if it is provided by four Brazilian? cartoon characters in a bus, then all the better. And much better than that creepy old man from the Six Flags commercials.
I’ve been to Brazil, you know. I didn’t see a bus like that any of the times I went. But I did see a really crappy basketball game and the guy who drove me around on one trip had just gotten out of the hospital. I asked him why and he said: “I got carjacked and I didn’t get out fast enough so they shot me.”
Then he pointed out the place where it happened. And not in an arm wavy “over yonder” way. He pointed with his frigging finger to the place where he got shot. Shot because he had a car. We drove by it. IN a car. Stupid dummy driver. Carjackers aren’t lightning, you know! I should have taken the bus. The Venga bus. I heard it’s comin’. And everybody’s jumpin’. Video and lyrics after the jump.

Today probably would have been a good time to do Warrant’s “Cherry Pie”, but hey, I don’t do these.
I have no memory of this song Senator
Nobody knows this song? Really?
How did you miss this concept Acadia (from the vengaboys site)
