Song-A-Long: Day 2
"Least Favorite Song."
American Pie, Don McLean...did you just vomit in your mouth a little?
I did.
Please don't swear off this blog because this song is my "nails-on-chalkboard" song.
It all starts when you are at your local July 4 celebration, a beach barbeque or at a bar with some delusion DJ who thinks he can put a dance beat under it and "make it his own". Damn you American Idol and your "make it your own-ness!"
There's always alcohol involved, over zealous singing of the chorus and then someone or more accurately some someones who think that all the sudden my 3 feet of personal space is their 3 ft of personal space. And, before I realize what's going on arms are slung over my shoulders, we're swaying side to side, they're screaming off-key lyrics and spilling their libations all over my what-was-once-cute-AND-CLEAN-top.
Let's just retire this one, mmkay?

I'm soooooo with you on this one. If I never heard this song again, I'd be one happy camper.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! How do you really feel? :) I agree that this one is pretty overrated.
ReplyDeletewell I guess I have to strongly disagree I love this song and this version not to crazy about the madonna version but it is ok. But part of the reason I love it is because when we were kids and I mean small kids my brother would sing this song and it was so cute. so i guess that is the biggest reason I like this song.
