With "Ob-la-de, Ob-la-da."

In other news Blender magazine made the "One Worst Magazine" list.

I presume everyone's seen part of the list at this point, besides the song above (which came in at 48). It is sad, as is said magazine.

Whoever compiled that list obviously never heard Kung Fu Fighting in 1975.

I have a certain love for "Kung Fu Fighting..." It must come from being a fan of I'm Gonna Git You Sucka.

Then again, now that the Geico Gekko sings it, it sucks. So does Geico. :o

*I'm not a fan of this quick-reply business. It always times out and then I lose my message.. and I'm on a cable modem.

You can get I'm Gonna Git You Sucka on Comcast In Demand this month. It made me think of you. Awwwww :p

I'd have to agree Bekah, it's one of my favorite songs of all time.

I have yet to hear from anyone who even remotely agrees with this list. Therefore it is not you with the bad taste Jo... I think it's the people who wanted to sell magazines by posting this crap.

I have to admit, a few of these songs are beyond horrible, though.

Speaking of I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, I'm showing a part of it to my co-workers at work. A woman came in wearing her "fake hair" yesterday after her morning workout, and that prompted a conversation about... Fake attributes? Well, anyway, if you know this movie, then this line should make perfect sense to you: "Don't make me hop after you!"
