We have a late entrant into the eligible songs for Karaoke Mulligan: Ylvis’ What Does the Fox Say. Anyone singing this from start to finish, including the dance, will get 500 bonus chips. If William does it, he gets 5000 bonus chips. After watching this masterpiece, I don’t think there will be any argument, even though I have not run this past the commissioner.
Here’s the link to the video: What Does the Fox Say?
Unless I get a waiver from Gregg, I’m going to try to avoid the Primary Wave Media properties, so he does not try to collect royalties on the spot.
Musical selections for Week 1 (will try to have a mix for those with different musical interests) Links to lyrics are adjacent to titles. It would behoove you to spend a little time on youtube, iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, Rhapsody, or wherever/however listen to your music beefing up your style. A dry, William Shatneresque recitation will not fly here.
William, if you prefer to recite poetry instead of sing, we’ll make an exception in your case. In that case, something from Baudelaire’s Les Fleurs du Mal would appropriate. If there are any other octogenarians on hand, we’ll make a similar exception.
Don Ho’s Tiny Bubbles
Cole Porter’s I Get a Kick Out of You
Springsteen’s Thunder Road
Talking Heads’ Life During Wartime
Sir Mix-a-Lot’s Baby Got Back
Eminem’s The Real Slim Shady
And of course, the obligatory Grateful Dead song: Box of Rain
Let the games begin, and may the odds be ever in your favor.
I am afraid I just watched a video like the one in the movie the Ring. In a week from now, something is going to come through the tv and kill me.
Mike, I’m surprised by your virulent anti-Ylvis response. I always took you for a cosmopolite, a man of the world. Here’s a link to info on Ylvis to elucidate and enhance your perspective: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ylvis
But, there is more than one flavor of gelato out there for a reason. Perhaps you prefer something a little more provincial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VTo064bXms
I want you to know that I am a pluralist, and won’t judge you for whichever part of the spectrum in which you fall. There’s room for all except haters in my world.
