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 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?
