His Song


"Mom, can you please turn on the radio to see if my song is on?"

"Which song are you looking for?"

"You know, the one that goes, 'Da da da da da I've got to move my jacket...'"

"I think you mean, 'Da da da da da I've got the moves like Jagger...'"

"Like what? Mom, that doesn't even make sense."

I'm linked up here at Miss Elaine-ous today too because I get around. Ask anyone.

  1. This is why Youtube was invented.

  2. Ha ha ha ha ha!

    My older sister's youthful downfall was Manfred Mann's "Do Wah Diddy". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pka6mDVQkY0

    At 1:17 and again at 1:55 he (according to my sister) sings "Well I'm hurt! She's MAD wedding bells are gonna chime!" (Rhyme could have been a clue here, unlike w 'Jagger')

    Thanks to youtube, I've just discovered Manfred's rather stupefying use of maracas. (watch to the end)
