Ding ding
ding da da ding ding! Ding ding ding da da ding ding!
Alright stop...
Now that the
song is stuck in your head, we can move forward. (And if it isn’t stuck in your
head, you are either too young to appreciate the greatness of Vanilla Ice or
you and I don’t have near the same affinity for early 90s music.)
We all have
those songs from our past that stick out in our minds. At the drop of a beat,
you can sing every word, recall every note, and remember every step of the music
video (when they actually made music videos).
Whether it’s
“Ice, Ice, Baby” or some other “classic,” there are songs that will forever transport
us back to the days of our childhood or teenage years… when the future held
every possibility and the days flew by too quickly.
But thinking
of it that way makes me wonder. What is today’s “Ice, Ice, Baby” for me?
Because the reality is that the music we hear today will be the music of our
memories tomorrow…
Just
something to think about.
Will it ever stop, yo, I don't know…
(now you finish the song!)
I might be wrong but for some reason, I think he has a show on the Home and Garden channel...
ReplyDeleteAnd whenever I think of this song, I also think of MC Hammer's "Hammer Time."
Man, I am old.
Happy A-Z!
Hello, Andy! Oh, Vanilla Ice. I have that song on my iPod! MC Hammer's Can't Touch This is another great one from the '90s. And anything by Ace of Base!
ReplyDeleteHappy A to Z-ing! from Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines
LOL I saw a really funny picture on Facebook of 2 ice machines side by side and a baby sitting next to the 2nd one. Cracked me up.
ReplyDeleteNo, you did NOT just do that...
ReplyDeleteYes, Erick. Yes I did. And you're welcome!
DeleteCollaborate and listen!
ReplyDeleteI loved Vanilla Ice. And that's a classic song. I guess today's equivalent would be Lady Gaga's "Ra-ra-ah-ah-aah-ro-ma-ro-ma-ah-ga-ga-ooh-la-la" or something similar.
Thankfully (or not, depending on your view) Vanilla Ice made a comeback in the UK by doing a duet with Jedward UnderPressure/Ice Ice Baby mash-up.
Now I am going to be sining this for the rest of the day. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHHHHHH that song!! Every time I hear that song I see my son running around in his parachute pants. It's one song that when it's in your head it never leaves!! SHAME on you!!!
ReplyDeleteIce ice baby........ : )
