Monday Morning Mash-Up Madness
It was a horrible weekend. I saw no deer. The Irish lost. The Badgers lost. Oh well, I didn't have to go to Chicago but then the more I think of that, the more I wanted to go although the prospect of hanging out at a hospital or a house babysitting didn't reel me in. Oh well, as the state motto says...Forward.
Our mash-ups for this week:
This mash-up combines Boston's "More than a Feeling" with "I Got a Feeling" by Black Eyed Peas. When I first saw this mash-up I figured it wouldn't work just because Boston is awesome and the Black Eyed Peas are not. It is actually pulled off quite well.
One part "Thong Song" by Sisqo and one part "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson is mixed together to give you this mash-up. This is an older bootleg but it has gained popularity in recent months due to Jackson's death.
I was apprehensive about post this one but I figured what the hell. The reason I didn't want to post it is because it is only one song. However, it is a mash-up of the one song being performed by three different people. The song..."Poker Face". You get to hear the Lady Gaga version mixed with Eric Cartman from South Park and then Christopher Walken joins in on the mash-up. South Park did an episode in which Rock Band played a prominent role and Cartman did the vocals. The Christopher Walken version comes from a spoken word performance (think William Shatner's cover of Rocket Man) on a TV program from the UK. Honestly, I am loving this song. I never gave it much earplay when I only heard Lady Gaga singing it but with the addition of Cartman and Walken, "Poker Face" is aces in my book.
Who said breaking up was hard to do?I hope everyone had a swell weekend.

Sorry you had a horrible weekend.
Mine had good parts
and not-so-good parts
. I'm kinda glad it's Monday now. 
I liked all the mash-ups this week, but especially the first and last ones.
Funny outfits
and funny break-up note.
Reminds me of the song about...my wife left and took the dog....I sure do miss the dog.
Hope it's a good Monday for you! Hugs!
That first photo scares me...the second one makes me laugh. Good songs =] The Poker Face made me grin. And why the hell are you always awake at ungodly times of the day??
First pic is unique as always:)
Sorry your weekend didn't go the way you wanted. My weekend was pretty good, was out for most of the day yesterday.
aww horrible weekend, sorry to hear that...
i like the sisqo/mj mashup... it's amazing how well they go together
"ps - i took the dog. he hates you." lol ...love that
Guy in the first picture is plain brainless!
(clap clap clap) Sorry to hear you had a bad weekend....I thought my award would cheer you up!
As you saw, I had a crappy weekend, too. Not as bad as my friend, who ended up in the emergency room with what they thought was a miscarriage, but turned out not to be, and is now yet another unsolved medical mystery (she is still bleeding out... day #7... and they don't really seem all that concerned).
It seems that everyone has bad days all at the same time, doesn't it? Sorry you couldn't come down to Chi-town... a trip into the city always cheers me up! Especially if it involves a visit to a museum... Maybe that's what I should have done Sunday.

There was a country song I remember where the singer talked about how his wife took everything except the rug on the floor but instead of taking it she took something on it.
@crazy2love -
I have been having problems sleeping lately. Minor things wake me up and it is near impossible to get to sleep once I wake up.
@PeaceSearcher -
Thanks...I thought it was rather unique.
@ChainGangSoldier619 -
Glad to hear your weekend was good. I really shouldn't complain, just a couple football teams I follow lost which is no big deal. I am sad though I didn't get any deer because that provides so much meat for the year.
@Peridot21 -
I am still breathing so that should make it a great weekend.
I heard someone say that the reason why rap songs work so well in mash-ups is because they basically all carry the same beat.
@RestlessButterfly -
Yeah, he'd have to be brainless to wear something like that in public.
@eclecticapunkqueen22 -
No, your award did cheer me up. Thanks.
@ithiliya -
I hope your friend turns out to be OK.
I may get to Chicago yet. My aunt that lives down there is having major heart surgery and apparently it may not be a good outcome.
It's probably best that I didn't go because I would have gorged myself at Hot Doug's or Al's Beef
@Shy___Away -
Yeah, I was surprised how well it flowed.
@NightlyDreams -
Well some of mine have been bad but none involving living things hating me.
@BranmacFeabhail -
Yeah, I am sure that both people involved will get a laugh at it later on in life.
@curiousdwk -
Thank you for the comment. If I wasn't a point in my life where I want to make a relationship last, I would love to attempt a break-up via post-it note.
@rickystar1 -
I'd make a comment and say that he is a real dick but you know...
@godfatherofgreenbay - Like I said, bad things seem to happen all at once.
I hope your aunt gets through it okay. Even if it means you don't get to go to Chicago
