Yes We CAN CAN: Boomer Feminist Edition

Mon, 07/28/2008 - 6:02pm — BoGardiner

That WAS your brain after the MoveOn brainwash video.


THIS is your brain on the Pointer Sisters.



Aaahhhhh, MUCH better... jump up and groove with us now... let go of all that embarrassment for MoveOn and its cute baby chick... that's it... just let the funk flow in... that's right... tell it, sisters...



h/t to TonyRz


And do respect the women of the world

Remember you all have mothers


We got to make this land a better land

Than the world in which we live

And we got to help each man be a better man

With the kindness that we give


I know we can make it

I know darn well we can work it out

Oh yes we can, I know we can can

Yes we can can, why can't we

If we wanna get together we can work it out

Just set this aside for a better time if needed. Thanks.

We still need our sense of humor

...even in tragedy. This both funny and needed. :)

...and it's nice to get my mind off things for a while.

Mad YouTubez skillz.

Awesome find, that video.

Makes it harder to believe we're where we are today.

(Also a pleasure to hear real musicians and real vocalists who are singing and not shouting and/or mumbling. And you kids - GET OFF MY LAWN!)

Thanks for reminding me of it

By BoGardiner on Mon, 07/28/2008 - 10:21pm

Love that New Orleans funky sound. The irony of it all is poignant, isn't it?

Um, the lawn thing, what's that about?

The lawn thing...

By TonyRz on Mon, 07/28/2008 - 10:29pm

> Um, the lawn thing, what’s that about?

"Get off my lawn" is a standard third-rate comic line to indicate someone's old.

And given my kvetching about music today versus the singers and musicians of my generation; and flirting with not voting for the Democrat for POTUS ... well, the next logical step is clearly me chasing those pesky kids off my lawn.

Jon Stewart turned my brain to mush

I should have gotten that!

Love the youtubes, love this response:

Same here, except in these parts we toss buckets of dirty water out the windows onto the kids loitering on the sidewalk underneath...
