OK, it’s time for a little Friday fun.
For those of you not born in the last 20 years, you might be able to relate.
Remember mixed tapes? Man they were awesome. Grab some tunes, make a couple of mixed tapes and head out for a long ride. How cool was that? Loved it.
Alas, this isn’t a mixed tape, per say.
I was digging around looking for something the other night and came across a stack of CDs. I went through them all last night and came up with a lot of older photos (from when I was first into digital photography, so 2003/04). Mixed in was a music CD.
Of course I had to check it out.
I have no idea when this was made, to be honest. I’m sure I could search all the songs and find out when they were made and could give an educated guess. I’d guess the mid 2000s or so.
So, I thought it would be fun — as long as I can find some YouTube videos — to put what I found on this CD. Please note I had to find a few of these via Shazam so I knew what the heck they were.
Have a great Friday.
1. Let’s Get Retarded (Black Eye Peas)
This is before the PC version (let’s get it started) took over and it’s unedited.
2. Yeah! (Usher feat. Lil’ Jon and Ludacris)
Sad to say, I had to Shazam this one.
3. Frickin’ A – Trend
This is a pretty funny song. Lyrics below the video. Had to Shazam this one, too.
Woke up today
looking through my email
it’s all triple x – explicit sex
But I’m not horny
Can’t make it stop, the different colored soda pops
striped toe socks, call the cops
I can’t take anymore
I’ve got the perfect cel plan with nights and weekends free
All the ringtones that I need
But no one ever calls me
I should paint myself green
Walk around in a red g-string
Cause I just don’t fit in
Turn my hat sideways
put a band aid on my face
You know that I….
Wish I could start a trend
Checkin’ out and in of the Paris Hilton
Joe Millionaire – he’s a has been
Flippin’ through a hundred million channels
But I still watch Road Rules
Lose the pounds FLIP
You gotta buy now FLIP
Here’s the number to save your soul FLIP
Breaking news…another Michael Jackson scandal
I’ve got the perfect cel plan with nights and weekends free
More on-peak than I need
But no one ever calls me
I’ll wear low rider jeans
Put a barbell through my dingaling
Cause I just don’t fit in
Turn my hat sideways
put a band aid on my pretty face
Cause I wish, I know, I could…
I would start a trend
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Then there’s my girlfriend
She’s such a cutie
She’d be a beauty
If she could get an extreme makeover on that booty
I could bend her over and she let me spank it
Take off my jeans
The zipper pinched my dingaling
And I don’t really fit in
Throw my hat away
Take that stupid band aid off my face
And I…I wish there were
One more way to tan your skin
a reality show where no one wins
If I would be myself
Then I could start a trend
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Then I could start a trend
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
If I’d just be myself
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
Be myself
Nana nana na
Nana nana na
If I’d just be myself
4. Tangled up in me (Skye Sweetnam)
<Sigh> I know. On the bright side, I had to Shazam it.
5. Somebody told me (The Killers)
This is still a pretty kick-ass song. Upbeat. Easy to drive to.
6. Nobody’s Fool (Kenny Loggins)
Hell yeah! Caddyshack II! Rock it. Lyrics below the video for sure. Rock it! I’m nobody’s fool!
I know you think I’m no match for you baby
You like being rough on me don’t ya, my my my (ha ha)
Back to the shack oh yeah
Nothing suits me better than that
If time has taught me anything
Got to learn to be the ball
And I can’t keep from laughing at it all (whoa)
I’m gonna laugh
I’m going all the way
Sooner or later gotta love somebody
Don’t care how long it takes
Like a shock to the heart
I’ve got news for you
I may not look so smart
But I’m nobody’s fool
Oh no, that’s enough for you baby
Taking it slow, it’s too much for me to analyze
Still all right, heading into the rhythm of a summer night
Winds of wild insanity, blow with me tonight
Saddle up all you cowboys, gonna ride
I’m gonna ride
I’m going all the way
Sooner or later gotta love somebody
Don’t care how long it takes
You can turn up the heat
But I’m playing it cool
I know it’s hard to believe
I ain’t nobody’s fool
I’m going all the way (all the way)
Sooner or later gotta love somebody (I don’t care)
Don’t care how long it takes
You might think that
I have not gone to school on you
Baby like it or not
I ain’t nobody’s fool
My hallucination may come as some surprise
You may try to deny it
You’re amazed when the clown slaps you in the face
Leaves you dumbfounded there in his way (yeah)
I’m going all the way (yeah)
Sooner or later gotta love somebody (gotta love somebody)
Don’t care how long it takes
Like a shock to the heart
I’ve got news for you
Maybe I’m not so smart
But I’m nobody’s fool
I’m going all the way (oh yeah)
I’m going all the way (I’m nobody’s fool, baby, nobody’s fool)
Don’t care how long it takes (I don’t care)
I’m going all the way (who’s fooling who?)
7. Mr. Mom (Lonestar)
This really is a fun little song.
8. The Love Song (K-OS)
Yep, Shazam.
9. Call on Me (Eric Prydz)
The video of this is actually a little racy, so I just went with the one below. If you want to see it, head to YouTube! End strong though … this was also found via Shazam!
So there you have it. I’m definitely not a mix-master as I like to think I once was. Alas, the tunes were obviously good for me at the time, despite the fact that some of them didn’t stand the test of time.
I’ll have to see if I can uncover a few more CDs for some future posts.
