Catch the Buzz

Worse Than Herpes

Thanks to a Youtube video with a certain song in the soundtrack, I now have “Bumble Boogie” stuck in my brain.

This is the original, which is pretty simple, but it’s much better than the Liberace version. Maybe old gay Polish classical musicians aren’t the best choices to express the boogie feel.

Check out the Jools Holland versions on Youtube.

    The only thing more insidious than that song is “The Potty Song” (when my kids were 18 months old):

    I actually found myself singing this at a stop light on my way to work…caffeine deprivation does strange things to you first thing in the morning 😉
