Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tales

I'm not a music person, so it's really, really rare for me to stay in the car just so I can finish listening to a song. However, this was the most unique, amazing cover I had ever heard.

Nine Inch Nail's Hurt (which I liked in the original version), but sang by an "old man" with an amazing voice. Listen for yourself:



Like so many DJs do, this one gave no credit for who the song was by, but luckily googling "NIN old man cover" gave me perfect results. The singer is Johnny Cash. What an interesting idea!

Holy cow, these kids are amazing. So strong when they're so young! But strength doesn't explain everything they can do... Some of the stuff (like one kid balanced on the other's head with one hand) was just... wow.

I keep watching that over and over again. Such cute, amazing kids. (And I'm not even a kid person!)

I wanted to post this last week, but every copy I found online was taken down due to copyright stuff (so watch it fast!). Silly name, but OMG most amazing dancers ever!

League of Extraordinary Dancers (based on superhero backstory, thus the name) are incredible. I can (and have) watched this video over and over and over.



I need to find a way to save that off Youtube, in case it vanishes again.

*watching it again* Eee, I love the part around 1:05, how that guy just walks is so amazing! And he's not usually my type, but MMMM so hot. And I love the martial arts guys, too!

Edit: Wow, that music is Coldplay? I had no idea! Here's the song by itself, HQ. So beautiful!

This is the best thing I've seen all day. Nevermind that it's 8:30 AM. Semi-NWS. Star Trek slash! Not something I'm usually into, but the art is really good and the style is amusing as hell.

Also, I think I may die. So tired! I decided to exercise in the morning before work, because after work it's like "Hmmm, log on and have fun or exerci-- wait for me guys, incoming! *logs on*". Alas this requires me getting up even earlier than usual. zzzz

I bought a Tae Bo DVD. I used to do Tae Bo endlessly, but all I had were videotapes of it, so I had to upgrade. Three different fun ways to exercise now! Boxing (*pantpantpant*), Bollywood dancing ("Oh god, good thing no one can see me doing this!"), and Tae Bo ("Go ahead, muggers, jump me!" *punch!* *kick!*).

Alas, a half-hour of exercise per day isn't enough to counter a sucky diet. Still need to get on top of that end of things. Food needs to be less yummy.

Edit: Maybe I spoke too soon! This video (worksafe) maybe give that first link a run for best thing I've seen all day! Pokerface parody about fonts.

And the song in that video reminds me of how much I loved this video (no nakedbits, but I'd call it NWS for highly suggestive dancing). OMG, that kid is so amazingly sexy! *licks him* Amazing that people can move and dance like that...

Through my credit card I got early access to download a song off Trans-Siberian Orchestra's newest album. I know they're popular with quite a few people, so maybe others would like to hear it as well.

Feel free to rightclick-save as, or just listen to it from there. I have unlimited bandwidth, so no worries if you want to listen to it from my site.

In other news, it looks like Christmas in my apartment. Amazon is sending Every Single Item in its own box... each box like four times the size of the game inside it (and Wii game boxes are huge! At least the ones that come with platforms/pads!).
