The Dreaded Dashuh Disease

Cafe Society
1

The primary sympthom of Dashuh disease is the propensity to end a line of song with the “-uh” sound.

For example:

From “Can’t Fight this Feeling” by REO Speedwagon

And I can’t fight this feeling anymore**-uh**
I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for**-uh**
It’s time to bring this ship into the shore**-uh**
And throw away the oars, forever**-uh**

and Michelle Branch’s “Everywhere”

Turn it inside out so I can see**-uh**
The part of you that’s drifting over me**-uh**
And when I wake you’re never there**-uh**
But when I sleep you’re everywhere**-uh**
You’re everywhere**-uh**

It’s driving me bugnutty. I’m thinking of throwing a benefit, because before 2002, I thought Kevin Cronin was the only victim. The disease is spreading. We must eradicate it now!!! If you know of other performers with this dreaded affliction, please post their name in this thread to promote awareness of Dashuh disease.

Minor nitpick: the last line of “I can’t Fight This Feeling Anymore” should be rendered:

And throw away the oars, forev**-uh**

Where do I send my check?

I’m sorry, Miller, but he sings it like this:

“…foreeeeeeeverrrrrrrrr**-uh**…”

Listen to it again and be afraid. Be very, very afraid.

While I’m usually willing to go to almost any lengths to win an argument, even I have limits. I’ll take your word for it.

Miller, this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Televangelists have this really bad.

“And the Lord-uh Jee-sus CheerIST-uh will SMITE-uh the sinners-uh”, et cetera-uh…

Oh yeah. Just turn on the Simpsons when Reverend Lovejoy’s doing one of his sermons. Chock full of Dashuh disease!
