YouTube Daily Shoutout #32

So this huge guy with big muscles could not open a water bottle! He was spotted in a baseball game and commented by the commentators, how embarrassing! 

I loved this song! It's cookie monster singing about how bad he wants a cookie but that he has to wait, and it got funnier when I realized it's a real song. I don't know the name of the song though. 

And this is how Germans react to the sound of a siren. In Panama the extend of the precautions taken by those drivers would never happen. Drivers meters away from the sound made way and waited. And the fact that it looked like it was a highway is amazing.

YouTube Daily Shoutout #17 - Channing Tatum

Jamie Foxx and Channing Tatum teamed up with Jimmy Kimmel Live to do kind of a song about Channing Tatum. Not about him, but about his name. It's called "I Wanna Channing All Over Your Tatum" and it's hilarious. First is the interview which I think is better to see first to be able to understand the music video. 

And then here's the official music video, with Miley Cyrus as a guest. 

I'm Going Home

I'm a freshman, and my ENC 1101 final project is a song. I wrote it in about 30 minutes in class. It felt weird to remember my childhood, especially if you had to remember all those details you wish to avoid. Awkwardness and embarrassment flood my thoughts. But I had to finish what I began. This song is about the oppression school applied in my use of creativity in writing. I used to be pretty creative and also clever in my use of words. But school messed it all up, implying "common sense" rules. I mean.. creative writing is called creative for some reason. I had my own magic train who took me to every place I created through my words, and they just bombarded my peaceful trip and caused a train wreck. Fortunately I found my way in my early teens, and I found it through music.

"I'm Going Home"

Two days in a row, stuck in the same mess
My head is in the clouds, but it feels more like a pain
You making me your puppet, telling me what to say
Can’t take it anymore, of this silly game
I know that you know, which is driving me nuts
But I’ll tell you anyway, to get it out of my way

I’m going home, the place that I belong
Where my heart comes from
And there’s nothing but freedom
I’m going home, to see the people that I love
To make my way through the door
And let you see my work

Weekend all alone, nobody who controls
I pour my soul onto, the cold cold rain
My hands write tragedies, even a rock could feel
Then the weekend’s over, back to puppetry

Chorus

Run run through the cold freezing rain
Let it wash what’s been washed from your brain
Stop stop making a fool out of me
Put an end to what won't let you free

Chorus

- ME
