Here's a good one for you both...I *love* the banjo. Surely you can both join forces against me on that (if not, I also love the bagpipes and the accordion.

What do bagpipe players and accordionists have in common? They both enjoy stuffing feral cats in bags and squeezing them for their own sick enjoyment!

Mika's Grace Kelly. I love that song (and the album isn't bad either - not fully realised, but it has some pretty nifty songs). |
ok, well i had to check these on youtube because i didn't know either of them. i confirm that i don't like céline dion (i was a bit worried that was slamming her without actually knowing any of her songs, because i couldn't remember ever actually hearing one). but Grace Kelly, not bad, i can see why you like that. since we're admitting guilty pleasures (and because i am confident that nothing can top "wannabe", which i also had to look up on youtube...
) i like "freedom" by george michael... i don't actually own it, mind you, but i have a girlfriend who always plays that when she has a party, and *everybody* dances to that one. also "express yourself" by madonna...
WDecraene : thanks for the tip about Kid Koala "Some of my best friends are DJ's" ; excellent stuff. and the videos are brilliant too.

those guys are my new heroes.
i humbly submit for your sensory pleasure a linky of my own :

this is yet another pearl from boy genius Joel Veitch (my hero), who brought us (among others) the spongmonkeys and countless other strange masterpieces which you can find on his site rathergood.com (it's more than rather good).
i liked this song enough to buy the mp3 (what can i say, i like ska and i dig a good horn section, and after all it's the least i can do to encourage Mr. Veitch) but everytime i want to listen to it i find myself going back to the site, because the video is so brilliant. singing kittens from 1940's, y'all, it doesnt get better than that.
if still in doubt, take a look at a few other popular favorites :
