Today is Pungenday, day 71 in the season of The Aftermath, 3268.

Today's horrifying musical exchange (and it's not even my music this time!):

• C. puts a new CD on, by someone called DJ Sammy, and bleepy dance track commences
  
• GC catches lyrics: "Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years/There was only you and me/We were young and wild and free"
  
• GC: "Uhhh...they're not really covering Canadian rocker Bryan Adams, are they?"
  
• C: Yes indeed.
  
• GC: *twitch*
  
• C. skips a track or two, yet more bleepy dance music, good beat, I can dance to it, I give it a 7 -- until the vocals kick in: "Nobody on the road/Nobody on the beach/I feel it in the air/The summer's out of reach/Empty lake, empty streets/The sun goes down alone/I'm drivin' by your house/Though I know you're not home"
  
• GC: "Jesus Christ. It's like 'Don Henley meets 'A Night at the Roxbury''"

I take it you haven't heard the remix of the game show theme song for "The Price Is Right" set to lyrics of "Why don't you come on down and party with me"? There be some really strange dance mix shiite out there now...

I haven't, and I suspect I'm okay with that. ;) Best dance mix ever: the dance remix of the German version of "Rubber Ducky" from Sesame Street. *grin* I've also managed to break brains by giving out copies of "Prozak for Lovers", which is an entire CD of lounge/bossa nova versions of things like "Aqualung" and "Proud Mary". Wheee! ;)

But nothing quite compares with the Benzadrine Monks' cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

OOH, I heard the German Rubber Ducky song last night for the first time. I wish I knew who it was, so I could take it down to the local dance club and demand they get my groove on, dammit!

I think I'll take a pass on the lounge version of "Aqualung", but where can I get a copy of that German dance remix of rubber duckie?
