Can't see it. Youtube is blocked at work.

Of course there's some songs you just can't get out of your head and they're terrible.
In fact we play a game at work where you have to sing a couple of bars of a super cheesy song in the hope to get it in everyone's head so it annoys the crap out of them all day.

I'm winning on points!!

Here's some of my golden oldies which I hate (as does most everybody else) that always gets me in the lead...

Top Of The World (by the Carpenters)
Kumbaya
I am Woman (Helen Reddy)

When I drop a few bars of those everyone runs for the hills and I get my 5 points.

Speaking of office games - we also try and refer to ourselves in the third person in meetings and conference calls. If no-one notices (other than the players) you get 5 points. If you can get your first and last name in then it's 25 points but that's my harder. HeadOffice will now sign off (5 points!!!)

Great song! Our band play this and it's one of my favourite numbers of the set.

Clever montage in the video. Very well put together.

Great song indeed. :thumbsup:

My dad was fortunate to see The Beatles at a small gig back in the 60's............ and he said they were absolutely hopeless live! :shock: He reckoned the Stones were an infinitely better band live.

I am dying laughing, HeadOffice. Me and my golf buddies do the same thing out on the course. I'll usually start singing "Feelings" or "Sunshine on my Shoulder" which is guaranteed to annoy the crap out of everyone and effect their game one way or another.
The whole Third person thing reminds me of the Seinfeld episode with "Jimmy" the basketball player. HILARIOUS!!!

Great song indeed, but check out the Aerosmith version on the live bootleg album. Far better IMHO :D
