Mericans!

You're all dropped! Apparently you lot have known about this for a month, but no one mentioned it!



I AM STILL LAUGHING!!

AHAHAHA!!!! OKAY I'm seen it pop up on my flist BUT I NEVER CLICKED ON IT.

EVER.

UNTIL NOW.

*wipes away tear*

That was awesome.

There's a music video show on the ABC (Oz BBC) here every Friday and Saturday nights, and it's a thing that if you're home, you'll often switch it on rather than the radio, just to have some tunes as background to reading/writing. Mr B and I were quietly being grown-ups (ie, he was reading his Kindle and I was trying to finish Fathers) when that came on. I had to rewind it, twice.

Awesome is the EXACT word ;-)

I BROKE SOMETHING WITH ALL THE GIGGLING!

HOW COULD THEY HAVE KEPT IT TO THEMSELVES?! I can finally forgive Mr Bolton for the Mullet!

WE DID??? LOL

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, some Americans did! Or is that an allegation that you mentioned it? It's possible I was working or being hideously ill that day ... but I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED A MEMO ;-)

(PS You complete me!)

No *you* complete me. *g*

dfjkjfk Ah ha ha! omg. :D

(I'm a little embarrassed because I have no idea who the non Michael Bolton people are.)

But it was still too funny.

I only know them because they also did this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7yfISlGLNU and, the seminal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4&feature=relmfu

Ah, it's really cheered my week up, that!

[identity profile] snottygrrl.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
i hadn't seen that and it's too fabulous. going to guess it's folks on facebook that knew about it as that's where most vid gets passed around (because it's easy peasy).

anyhoo, thanks heaps for linking. totally made my week :D

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Apparently it was on SNL, but I am SO pleased it has reached out. Improved my crappy week, too -- I would never have guessed I would say that about Michael Bolton!

[identity profile] thenotoriousso4.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry!

I did actually know about this. I saw it when it first premiered on SNL. And The Lonely Island (the other guys in the video) are totally my heart and soul. I own both their albums!

P.S. Every time someone types "Mericans" I picture this: http://lolmart.com/product/merica/

That T-shirt is a work of genius rivalled only by the one with wolves and a full moon!

SO DROPPED! Though I suppose since you have the albums, I should undrop you, clearly we have similar tastes!

[identity profile] thenotoriousso4.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Three Wolf Moon! That shirt is epic!

I'm willing to share the goodness! Everyone should know the sweet, sultry sounds of The Lonely Island.

Army of Lovers is pretty much the best antidote to bolan.

Carrie SITC-forgot-her-name looks exactly like Mike Bolton in drag! I was convinced it was her!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/_inbetween_/ 2011-06-29 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Someone should tell her *serious nod*

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
SHE DOES! I was wondering who she looked like, and as soon as I read your comment, I was 'YES! HER!'

Heheheh *vindicated for once*

[identity profile] sherryillk.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, guilty. My brother is a big Lonely Island (to be fair, so I am, I Just Had Sex is amazing) fan as well as an even bigger Jack Sparrow/PotC fan so I did know about this. But I had no idea who Michael Bolton is and never really got PotC so it didn't make much of an impression on me.

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Tragically, I lived through the Bolton Era of popular music -- I far prefer him taking the piss!

And yeah, everything by Lonely Island has been great :-)

[identity profile] shu-shu-sleeps.livejournal.com 2011-06-24 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG! I love it! And yes, your American flist are definitely dropped for not mentioning this before!

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I am going to listen to it whenever I need a cheer-up. Also, XXXXX!

[identity profile] jekni.livejournal.com 2011-06-25 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Oh that hurts from the giggling! I needed that!

Now I just have to work out how to post this on my own lj!!

The universe should give us happy things like this more often!

Khem: http://alex-s9.livejournal.com/317165.html

I refuse to be blamed. Well, in this matter, otherwise I'm probably to be blamed for something.

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You are A GOOD FRIEND! And I was probably vomiting that day or something, alas. Should have paid more attention!

[identity profile] wivern.livejournal.com 2011-06-25 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you! Also still laughing. *g*

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-06-29 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I like to share the giggling ;-)

Hey - I put it on my facebook. =P

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-07-02 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
I'm in my forties and have no children, there is no reason in the universe for me to be on Facebook! :-)

Easiest way for me to keep up with Tammie. =D

And you are a Young Person! With the lovely skin and all!

[identity profile] cinnatart.livejournal.com 2011-07-02 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
Terribly ironic you should bring that up - I was just complaining the other day to my sister about just that - how my skin's starting to wrinkle and dry out and I'm getting 'old people hands, forehead, and nose' *pout*

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2011-07-02 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
Sunblock, and rose hip oil, rub it in while your skin is still damp and warm from your shower. Even if you have oily skin, it's lovely, and if you have dry, it's a delight! Cheap enough to use all over, too!

[identity profile] cinnatart.livejournal.com 2011-07-02 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
Huh, all right, will give it a go. Ta x

[identity profile] merlyn-gabriel.livejournal.com 2012-02-07 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
ahhhh this video. It's a tradition now on facebook( and has been since it came out) to do Michael Bolton Mondays and post this vid. For some reason it always makes Mondays better. ...now back to the good part....
