A-Ha's "Take On Me": The Literal Version

GiggleSugar — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 12:00:00 -0700

I hope this starts a trend in music video mashups. It's like "Mystery Science Theater" meets VH1's "Pop-Up Video." (Or something like that.) The formula? Take a music video and replace the lyrics with a narration of exactly what's going on in the video - scene by scene. Amazing! Here's the original version should you want to do a side-by-side comparison.

What's not to like? He's tallish, dark and oh, so handsome. And that's even before you consider his rather unusual musical abilities. Oh, and unlike lots of other boyfriends, it looks (and sounds) like he's got a looooot of time on his hands.

Cute Alert: Singing Chihuahua

This little chihuahua seems pretty unmoved by her family's rendition of the '80s song by A-ha, "Take On Me." That is - at first. Once she gets cooking, though, there's no stopping her. Lady sings the blues!

Citizen PSA: Are You Turning Your Lights Out For Earth Hour?

CitizenSugar — Sat, 29 Mar 2008 13:59:20 -0700

Tonight from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. local time, major cities around the world are celebrating Earth Hour. Flipping lights off for 60 minutes in a sort of ecological version of the 1980s Hands Across America, organizers hope to unite the world in awareness of the threat of climate change.

Cities like Sydney, Melbourne, and Bangkok (where this picture was snapped) have already fallen dark, and the US is gearing up to join in. A sense of community and ecological awareness is at the heart of the event, though critics are calling the event a gimmick that will have little overall impact.

With energy consumption high on the list of environmental impacts, and states like Maryland possibly facing rolling blackouts as early as 2011, is this event just what the world needs to make the "a-ha!" light bulb go on?

Will you be flipping the switch tonight?
