I am terrible, terrible, terrible at remembering to blog. And then when I do, it's not necessarily anything that great :P

Anyway, I needed to share with the like.... two people who read this, something awesome:

Ben Folds covering Keisha's Sleazy. At this point, good singers doing covers of shitty rap songs has been done a ton, but I always am tickled when he does it. I found this amusing and surprisingly good considering that even though I've never heard the orig. I have this wacky idea that it's probably terrible. The video isn't particularly hilarious or anything, but whatever.



And I found something else somewhat cool, someone splicing together a ton of people at his concerts doing this sort of acapella version of one of his songs.



If you want to hear his most hilarious shitty rap turned soulful ballad, there's always Bitches Ain't Shit



Oh, what the hell, while I'm doing it, Ice Ice Baby, unplugged, by Ben Kweller



Jonathan Coulton, doing Baby Got Back



This one is just hilarious because.... the orig. rap lyrics are fucking crazy. I mean, the rap lyrics of the aforementioned are dumb, but.... not that weird. This song is dumb AND weird, and hearing it sung by someone mocking it is pretty hilarious in my book.



And this isn't rap, but it always makes me laugh because I can tell they are about to crack up while they're singing it.



Ok, I'm done. You fuckers better watch at least one of these!
