Misheard Lyrics

These things are freaking hilarious, and by far the best one's are from Pearl Jam cause you have no idea what Eddie is saying anyway.

Yellow Ledbetter Black Even Flow And a Fall Out Boy video that was a favorite around here... ALSO INTO CATS!!!

What really happened to Kurt Cobain

Anyone who followed the investigation into Kurt Cobain's alleged suicide already knows most of this. For those that don't here is a good article on why many believe Kurt's death was not a suicide.

FTA: Kurt apparently had 3 times the lethal 225 mgs dose of heroin (1.52 mgs per liter) in his blood system and intravenous puncture marks in both arms. Medical experts will tell you that such an amount, when injected directly into the bloodstream will leave you incapacitated and cause you to lapse into a coma within seconds, if not kill you instantly before the needle can even be removed from your arm. It's common for deaths of heroin overdoses to be found with the needle still sticking out of the arm. That's how quickly one lethal dose can kill a person, let alone three.

More FTA: It's hard to believe that Cobain injected himself with an insane triple lethal dose of heroin, pulled the needle out of his arm, carefully put away that needle and the heroin paraphernalia neatly back into a cigar box a few feet away, rolled down and button his sleeves, then picked up a Remington 20-gauge shotgun, placed it in his mouth and discharged it.

That's only the tip of the iceberg. How about the part where they couldn't find any fingerprints on the gun he used, the shell box next to him or the pen he supposedly used to write his suicide note.

There are many reasons why those close to Kurt don't believe he took his own life.

Bob Dylan is a genius

Here's a fact you may not know, Bob Dylan wrote every hit song in the past 35 years. Don't believe me? Here's the proof. I just keep thinking about Dylan sitting there in '66 pickin' rump shaker on his old 6 string.

Barney featuring Elmo - Money Maker (Pharrell featuring Ludacris)

NSFW: Language From the "ridiculous Barney music video remix" files comes Money Maker...featuring Elmo. A lot of the Barney remixes are pretty crappy, they just throw together clips. This, like the Tupac one, is really well thought out.

[OSF] New Black Sheep video - Whodat?

Even though this is a new track, I put it under Old School Friday because Black Sheep is one of the dopest old school crews still in the game (kinda...see below). Dres is one of my favorite rappers, and it's great to see him back with the old crew. Great track. Apparently Mr Lawnge has gone solo - but did (according to Dres) help out with the new project. Production guests include Bean 1, VItamin D, Show Biz, Kwame, and Lord Finesse. In the interview below (from 3/06), Dres says he's hoping to re-establish the group with Lawnge (now spelled Long). At least Dres is still kickin it with the Native Tounges crew, touring with De La Soul. [Interview with Dres] [Wikipedia]

[OSF] Kick-Ass Weng Weng Rap

Who's Weng Weng (pronounced Wang Wang), you ask? He's the baddest 2'9" B-movie star you never heard of...until now. According to Boing Boing referencing trashvideo he began his movie career doing underground adult films...nice. Also, he was in a video ["MoonBoy From Another Planet" in which he played a lovable three foot alien who befriends a poor Filipino boy] whos filmmaker sued Steven Spielberg for ripping off "E.T.". Also, he's a Guiness World Record holder (shortest adult actor in a leading role). The best part is, the rap is actually really good. Great lyrics. Classic: Put your hands low down where he can see 'em Then put 'em up high He's a tiny human being Guaranteein security to Philipino citizens, It's all the same thing to Weng Weng Guilty, innocent He got his own style, he's got a cute little smile In fact one time he even got picked up by a pedophile But kill that He's skilled at the art of attack He got a razorblade hat, a little gat, and a rocketpack He doesn't like booze so never pour him a shot of scotch Just give him a coke and you won't get a pop in the crotch His movies you love to watch, he knows that they all sweet WENG WENG IS DOIN HIS THANG THANG UNDER THREE FEET You want fight scenes? SURE! [Wikipedia]

[OSF] I wanna know where da GOL' at! (Leprechaun, leprechaun)

So, these people in Mobile, Alabama think they've seen a leprechaun in their neighborhood. Some huge black guy has an Irish great-great grandfather that gave him a special leprechaun flute. Or, it "Could be a crackhead, got hol' ta tha wrong stuff. And it told him to climb up in a tree and act like a leprechaun." My favorite part, "who all seen the leprechaun say yeaaaaay" - the look he gives the camera after that is priceless. Yes, there's a rap remix. CLASSIC. Kick it, Mr. T! The same song above, but with a hilarious video starring little people dressed as leprechauns Another rap remix. I like the other one better. BUBB RUBB makes a comeback, remixed into the leprechaun video This one is so big, it's got a Wikipedia entry. And a nice little aside... he WPMI-TV news story featured an amateur sketch of the creature. Upon realizing the sudden fame of their story, the staff of WPMI-TV conducted an auction for the sketch on eBay, which garnered $1100 [Wikipedia]

Rock Guitar version of Pachelbel's Canon

I couldn't wait until Friday because I'd probably forget about this by then. Originally written and performed by Jerry C, this is an update on an oldie (so maybe this doesn't count against Old School Friday anyway). This kid kills it. [Jerry C's original version]

Barney vs Tupac - Hit 'Em Up

Another oldie but goodie - the dancing kids make this video. I think Fridays will now become Old School Friday from now on, so for any 'classics' like this, you're just going to have to wait until then. Or Saturday if that's when I remember. Anyway...until then...(NSFW language, which you already knew if you have any idea who Tupac is)

Thou Shalt Always Kill

This is a track by Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip. I know you've never heard of them, but the lyrics are dope and it's a great video as well. Here's an interview with them about the song...
