do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
i love how songs can be made out of sounds that aren’t even words.
i was walking down the street towards class and there were some people right in front of me. there were some worker guys standing on the side smoking. one of the guys was staring at this girl that was ahead of me really intensely, she was wearing a black coat and a red bubble dress. i thought he was just leering at her like a normal creepy guy in new york, but he seemed kind of angry. then all of a sudden as soon as she passed he turned around to his friends and said “YO! I HATE those skirts, man! That’s the STUPIDEST SHIT I EVER SAW, YO!”
this is what he was talking about:
and i wanted to tell him i heartily agreed but i was too busy laughing. stupid dresses that don’t end. ahem, steph. kathy. cough cough.
i’m sorry, i wrote this a long time ago but i was doing it in advanced web and the internet was really awful there so i couldn’t post it. then i kind of just forgot. anyway, it is currently spring break, the last one i’ll ever have unless i become a teacher…so i figured i could pick this up again.
the puppini sisters’ in the mood. they’re like a modern revival of the andrews sisters, i came across them in england last fall and this is my favorite track. it’s so smooth and lazy and i’m just a sucker for harmonies and a capella with snaps or claps, this one even has stomp sounding beats!
now go shake your shoulders and tap your feet.
whoops hahaha. tricked you. that is totally not the file i was going for. that’s um, the glenn miller orchestra’s in the mood. isn’t that funny how a song with the same title sounds so different? i posted this and tested it, realized my mistake and i’m too lazy to even go in and delete that part.
here is the real deal. i think.
interestingly enough, you can shake your shoulders and tap your feet to both of them. which one puts you more “in the mood”?
i don’t really know what i mean by that.
