Damn you, Bananarama!

*It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
And that’s what gets results

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it

Stupid song has been stuck in my head all day long!!!

Not as bad as having Cruel Summer as well as the accompanying video running through your head.

Thanks a lot, KGS.

I’m still angry with them for taking every last shred of soul and brilliance out of The Shocking Blue’s “Venus” and reducing it to disposable pop trash.

This should take care of that problem.

Although for severe earworm infestations, more aggressive measures may be needed.

:smiley:

I really liked their version of Venus, but then I am rather partial to disposable pop trash.

They should have left ‘Nathan Jones’ alone too.

Didn’t Bananarama just sing backup on Fun Boy Three’s version of that song?

And anyway, that song was recorded in 1935 by Ella Fitzgerald, and has been covered by MANY people since then.

All I’m sayin; don’t blame Bananarama! Think of the children!

After Michael Bolton did Dock of the Bay, I can pretty much forgive anything else.

True, although “just sing backup” is a bit of an understatement – they basically handle the whole chorus. All 6,000 times it’s sung. (And wasn’t Bananarama originally part of FB3, who spun off into their own group later?)

It’s actually my own fault…I’ve been TiVo’ing VH1 Classic and recording to DVD the music videos I like, and when they played “Ain’t What You Do” I listened to it a few times to make sure it didn’t suck. (The basic rule is, if I can’t listen to a song three times in a row without getting sick of it, it gets dumped.) Then of course I got to hear it a few more times while recording it, and verifying that it recorded okay. So basically I heard that song ten times in a row…and a few hours later, like a large Mexican meal, it came back to haunt me!

Thankfully, a strong dose of Savatage & Ronnie James Dio turned the trick. I’ll have to remember that next time. :cool:

Good Heavens! Talk about the cure being worse than the disease!!
