All The Aging Hipsters Have Migrated To Kid’s TV, I Guess
Oh, man. I remember this song from a while back–the song was just numbers, read by a computer, and a combination of speed metal and 60′s easy strings. Now they have little kids yelling the numbers, and they’re playing it on a kid’s show.
I was wondering where today you might see things like the famous Patti Smith playing “You Light Up My Life”, or the Smiths on the schoolbus with the kiddies, or the Ramones playing kid’s shows might happen today. I guess Yo Gabba Gabba is the place.
But the show can really mess you up. Don’t click on this unless you’re stronger than me, just click the Cornelius link above…

There’s a party in his tummy. What to learn from this:
1) Carrots, large green beans, and chicken legs should be swallowed WHOLE;
2) Not eating your veggies makes them sad – use emotional manipulation to get what YOU want too!;
3) Jumping around and not staying in a seat is perfectly acceptable behavior while eating;
4) That good editing of the clip means you did not have to see the result of the jumping around: when they come back up!
5) The original version had Mr. Tapeworm, but the censors felt it to be too “real”
