I somehow overlooked “Sweet Disaster” by The Dreamers (sometime around 2017) when coming up with my list of nominations. Such is life. ---

It totally doesn’t qualify, because it’s so last century. I found out about it well after 2000, so I associate it with that time period. SHI-BU-KI - Ei-tetsu Hayashi and Shinn-ichi Kino-shita - 1997 Just awesome all around, and at 13:15 he breaks one of those tree trunks he’s using for drumsticks, and pulls off my favorite drummer trick of keeping the beat while he grabs a spare.

I could go on but I think I’ve posted all the songs I really wanted to share…except: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/K05N2jqFHc8/maxresdefault.jpg "CBeebies Songs | Hey Duggee | Stick Song") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K05N2jqFHc8) (2019) And once that sticks [sic] in your head, try the heavy metal version (2020): [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/7PDxV1kfgzY/maxresdefault.jpg "STICK SONG (Heavy Metal) by SLAY DUGGEE") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PDxV1kfgzY) Finally, I’d like to share one of the most obscene songs on my Spotify playlist. I’m not even going to link to it, but I’ll still blur the name. Because it’s gross. Funny but really gross. Show Me Where Ya Piss From - Mandrill Wives (2022) If you still wish to listen to it, go wild. ---

If it’s easy to request it and have the change made, it seems like it’d be generally good to do so. After further thought I think we’ll just leave it as is. The mods probably have enough to do and changing the end dates of four polls, I think, may be a PITA. Also, the songs have actually been rolling in since the OP on April 8, so it’s not like they have been sprung (sprang?) on us at the last minute. mmm ---
