All morning, every morning for three straight days. I'm not sure I even like the song. Gah! :mad:

She wins her Grammys through mind control, I'm certain of it now.

Ah, don't pay it any atteeeention...

And here's a version that isn't blocked in my country. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4m1EFMoRFvY) Goddamn, I hate that shit. Worldwide fucking web, America. :mad:

If you want an eye-worm to go with the ear-worm... <hey, they might cancel each other out!>
(Unfortunately, I saw this video before I'd ever heard the song by itself, so I'm permanently afflicted with this mental image every time I hear it :( >

And that version is blocked where I am in Asia. Now that's irony.

[Koxinga]

Well, no.

[Hazle Weatherfield]

I do. The editing, the lighting, the dancing...unbelievable, actually.

[Koxinga]

It's OK, but it's no a-ha.

And here's a version that isn't blocked in my country. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4m1EFMoRFvY) Goddamn, I hate that shit. Worldwide fucking web, America. :mad:Viva VEVO! :rolleyes:

[Kamino Neko]

Oddly enough, going straight through YT rather than following a link, lets you get to Vevo's channel, which will actually play the exact same video (although with a different URL).

So, it's even more insane than it looks.

On another note, I was kind of hoping the song in the OP would be Irreplaceable, not Single Ladies, so I could put the ring on it with this mashup (http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_cf00XOTMyNDc2MA==.html). (The other song is Hey My Friend, by Tommy heavenly6, the mashup's by dj lobsterdust. It really improves Irreplaceable, because Tommy >>>>> Beyonce.) Not a YouTube link, since, while I know a copy of the song exists there...it's blocked in Canada. Not deleted for unauthorized use...no, the message is 'no longer available in your country'.

[jjimm]

I do. The editing, the lighting, the dancing...unbelievable, actually.Actually I agree too. Once you get over the slightly weird setup, it's pretty amazing.

[Zsofia]

Yesterday all day I had "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth" stuck in my head all day. God knows why. I had finally gotten rid of it when this thread came up and bam - back in.

[RealityChuck]

Just listen to another song. That always works for me.

[RandMcnally]

When I got engaged my Facebook status update was, "Rand liked it so he went and put a ring on it."

I thought I was clever.

[WOOKINPANUB]

Just listen to / watch Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance"

. . . "rah rah ah ah ahhhhh

Roma ro ma ma

Gaga oh la la. . ."

[mariposalabrown]

(RAH)² (AH)³ + [ROMA (1+MA)] + (GA)² + (OOH)(LA)²= Bad Romance

I used to like Phoenix, but that car commercial with their song in it has sent me over the edge. Fallin Fallin Falliiiinnnn.... Shoot me please.

[Wheelz]

I kinda like the song, so I don't mind having it in my head for a while.
And I'll watch Beyonce dance any old day. ;)

[Kyla]

OH GOD I AGREE.

I hear five seconds of that song and then it gets stuck in my head for ages. Possibly years. I'll probably still be humming it twenty years from now. I'm so bitter than the last time I heard it was on fucking NPR. NPR! You're not supposed to give me earworms, you traitor.

[DooWahDiddy]

Maybe it'll help if you hear a much cooler version. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIr8-f2OWhs)

I can see your link but the one the OP posted is blocked in my country.

I live in Texas. :confused:

Well, we have proof Texas isn't part of the United States now. Huh.

[Cat Whisperer]

I do. The editing, the lighting, the dancing...unbelievable, actually.
I just don't see the special. I give the ladies 4 and a half Tina Turners out of 5 for the dancing in high heels, though.

[Koxinga]

Well, we have proof Texas isn't part of the United States now. Huh.

But I (the OP) am not based the United States.

[jjimm]

I just don't see the special. I give the ladies 4 and a half Tina Turners out of 5 for the dancing in high heels, though.It was all done in one take, apparently. And Beyoncé looks about 1000% better than Tina at her bes.

[jjimm]

Oh dear, I appear to be guilty of posting when plastered.

[Cat Whisperer]

Yes, but Tina is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for dancing in heels. If you don't believe me, go see for yourself. :)
