Here's a video I made of a brass band playing Happy Together! Listen carefully to hear me singing along...

That's a great arrangement of it. They're very colourful. I'll post a link to an Australian ad for Smiths chips based on that song when youtube stops behaving retardedly.

You may be having the same problem I have when I log on in the evening... when all the US citizens are on it. In the morning YT gives me no troubles.
For a good time: check out the actual Turtles version and watch a young Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan.

Hurdut (That's a phonetic spelling of the local accent, means something like "You heard it", or perhaps "Do you hear it?") also had great versions of Big Spender, River Deep Mountain High, and Proud Mary.

Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQnisQDGUgE. For some reason there's a pepsi max ad tacked on at the end.

Heh heh!

Didya hear the song abuse in the Twix commercials (we seem to have US commercials, and companies often don't even bother to translate them in any way)?

They messed up the lyrics so it doesnt rhyme anymore.

No. Thankfully, apart from some Pepsi, Coke and Subway ads (with that guy who apparently lost a million pounds eating Subway), we don't really get American ads. We get a lot of American shows obviously though.

I've found that a lot of ads use music and songs that are specially written in the style of specific songs that have recently been very popular. They'll use the same chord changes, rhythmic ideas and melodic ideas so it reminds people of this song they liked. It's very clever but it makes me sick.

what a funny smell in here, did someone throw up?

Hey Bonny, I checked out your Happy Together video and while I was there I noticed your Mother In Law joke.

:shocked:

You hadn't seen that yet? I put it up for the Bad Joke Thread.

...sounds to me like you get along well with your mother-in-law...

Nobody gets on with my Mother In Law, not even my wife. I've had some pretty nasty thoughts about her, but I never considered killing her. Anyway, the joke is kind of cute I guess.

We have a mother-in-law in our family like that... Wonder why she's still married to my uncle.

How can a mother in law in your family be married with your uncle"?
