Ok, so by now some of you regulars are probably starting to wonder if I’m going to rebrand this website as “Slices of Michael Jackson” – on account of the diversity of posts I’ve been releasing lately, celebrating different aspects of the king of Pop. Regardless, this is a video I just couldn’t go without posting: after all, it throws in the mix two of my favorite people of African-American ascent. I’m talking of course about MJ and president Obama!

I you have ever, in your wildest dreams tried to imagine what would result if these two amazing personas were combined as a single individual… well, I should say you sure have a fertile imagination. Plus, I will say you’re in for a treat. I mean, just sit back, grab a drink and feast your eyes on this 13 minute extended parody of Michael Jackson’s Thriller, starring no one else but our dear president in office Barak Obama. Here you go:

Now, someone just needs to make a parody of Michael Jackson as president Obama. Then my existence will be officially be fulfilled.

For anyone who’s a fan of the song Things that Rhyme with Orange, I’ve decided to make a little home, as well as providing you with the lyrics so you can sing along. This is indeed a powerful tune and I hope you’ll enjoy it! To all my internet buddies, the hit single from the band I set my friends on fire (but in a very cool way)… THINGS THAT RHYME WITH ORANGE (and I don’t mean poetically either):

Album Version:

Live @ warped tour 2009:

I’m so iconoclastic; I’M CLASTIC!
I only want you to think I’m fantastic.
I’ll participate in what you believe,
IF YOU GIVE ME THE ATTENTION!
Yeah, yeah thats the only compensation
I want to be included in your conversation.

So am I “in” or am I “out”
WHAT IS THERE TO THINK ABOUT!?
What is that paint brush for?
Are you preparing to draw me?
No wait, please don’t! i am scared,
Of what I’ll see…
I’m not a perfect picture portrait,
But i am working on it!
I’ve been thinking about being cool,
I must have to admit!

Blame it on the corporate skyscrapers in the clouds,
But if wasn’t for you,
We wouldn’t have all these multiple crowds.
How am I suppose to choose, which one I belong to?

I think I’ll perpetuate a pre-existing runway,
I guess it’s almost as cool as creating a fresh
New elaboration yourself.

It’s a marker! IT’S A SIGN!
It’s something we define!
It already exists, BUT YOU HELPED REFINE!
An emblem for all your aesthetic kin,
TO RECOGNIZE YOU BY!

Blame it on the corporate skyscrapers in the clouds,
But if wasn’t for you,
We wouldn’t have all these multiple crowds.
How am I suppose to choose, which one I belong to?

Obscenity is a crutch for traffic drives.
If you need to use the restroom just ask politely.
I like the way i do it, better then the way your not.
Lifting up the toilet seat was the way i was taught.

It has to be a unanimous determination.
Because one opinion would be a pointless appreciation.

YEAH, SURE THANKS FOR THE INVITATION!
DON’T WANT TO BE INCLUDED IN YOUR CONVERSATION…
IT’S TO LATE!
WE’VE OVER THROWN I TOOK ALL YOUR FRIENDS,
AND YOUR ALL ALONE.

Blame it on the corporate skyscrapers in the clouds,
But if wasn’t for you,
We wouldn’t have all these multiple crowds.
How am I suppose to choose, which one I belong to?

When it comes to things about life which make us happy to be around here, could there be a better reminder than music? when it comes to listening to your favorite music, could there be something cooler than watching the best videoclips from your favorite artists? There’s only one way I can think of… when it’s all about free music videos, such as this website I just stumbled across. You might think it’s pretty cool, but it’s actually better!

Whether we like it or not, the world becomes a softer place for all of us from the use of metaphors. I mean, can you imagine what it would be like if everyone went around with a fast-forward, tongue-in-cheek attitude, speaking their minds freely in every circumstance without making the least detour or using some colorful comparisons? Well, I’m guessing that disaster would ensue and confusion will be likely to get cast all around. So while you watch the following video, hopefully you’ll keep in mind that metaphors are actually quite useful and actually necessary as a lesser evil:

As far as classic pop songs are concerned with, this is not necessarily the most famous (even though it’s definitely well ranked), but it’s quite possibly one of the most elusive. Not because it features outstandingly deep lyrics or anything like that, but simply because it was accompanied with a videoclip that oftentimes left people wondering “what was that all about?”.

Granted, nonsensicalness is pretty much a standard feature of music videos – remarkably so during the 80’s, but still… it’s always good to get a healthy reality check every now and then. In this spirit, allow me to introduce you to the new revamped version of a-Ha’s “Take on me”, which faithfully mirrors the action featured in the videoclip. Now… isn’t that refreshing?
