Hmm, What You Say… (what did you say?)
Despite the warnings over at Say No to Crack, I went ahead and dived right into this parody thunderstorm. And I have the earworm infection today to prove it.
That song! What is with that song? It’s so abrupt, so loud, so…oddly chosen and placed. I looked the song up and it turns out the whole song is pretty long, and the bit they chose is near the end…the entire rest of the song sounded pretty okay for a shooting scene. Why they chose this weird boy-band section is beyond me. But, of course, the choice was made, and it was too ridiculous for the show SNL not to respond with a parody. Warning: violence, and also comedy.
I recommend at the very least viewing the original parody and the final parody Karen recommends, it really does pay off at the end. I had tears of parody laughter in my eyes afterwards.
