Cake Song. I Will Survive. Friday. Should Have Changed That Lock.

So I'm too tired to actually list three bloggers to send the Friday Send Off song to so I'd like to announce that you're ALL winners. Yeah you. You showed up, so you win. Like certain Olympics. So go stand on a small platform and tie a round disc to a string and pretend it's an actual medal. Don't be shy - hold it up with unbridled pride!

Are you ready? O.K. Now hit play and listen to Cake singing "I Will Survive". Live.

I've always wanted to win a medal, not the Special Olympics kind but...whatever works.

Hey Zibbs! You still need to get over to my blog and read the toe story.

That song is seriously getting on my nerves - they have nothing on Gloria Gaynor. ; )

BYE BYE!!!

I love this song...I got so excited when I saw your title.

Dr Zibbs said...

JJ - read and commented on the toe story. Please mail it to me. The toe that is.

As for you two - you know this is the place to find the cool music. Do I ever let you down? Do I?

You're too tired? YOU'RE TOO TIRED?? Wanker!

The toe is gone...didn't you read the story? lol! I could probably find a pre-surgery pic, enlarge and send that to you, but it seems like an awful lot of work.

You think Cake covers this well? You need to check out their "Ruby don't take your love to town" cover.

Its brilliant..I'll send it to you if you can't find it., but its there one YouTube..

Dr Zibbs said...

Bluez - I love that version. There's also a version of The Killers doing it on Youtube as well.

Excellente' (That's Puerto Rican for the word "excellent")

I'm with JJ on the medal ~ guess I'll take what I can get. Wow, I'm actually impressed with the song (I was worried at first, but they do a great job).

Dr Zibbs said...

WillowLakeScents - I aim to please. And from now on, you shall be known as WLS.

Feel free to tattoo that on your ankle.

Cora said...

Woo-hoo! I'm a winner! :-)

I love CAKE too. Thank you, Dr Zibbs. Have a great weekend!

Nobody played my song while I was holding my medal so glowingly proud of myself. sigh

Great song.......I had not heard them sing this before

Really good to listen to. Both full of nostalgia in the air, not the lack of a modern tune. I like this song.

"Should have changed that lock?"

Whatsamatta? Didn't want to drop the f-bomb in the title of your post?

The "Fucking" is what makes it great!

i dunno...cake's version doesn't have the same strident desperation that i'm used to. i don't think they really mean it.

gotta admit i like it tho.

I saw Cake live in Salt Lake City, well, almost. They were barely one song into the set when somebody threw a shoe at John McCree's nose. Needless to say they walked off stage not to return. Something about all that pent up Mormon agression makes for pretty wild concert goers. Don't believe me? Do yourself a favor and rent SLC Punk!

I love me some Cake! I'll probably survive.

BE Earl - I try to use the F word only when necessary because of my high Christian-like standards.

diane said...

Thanks, I'm honored. Cake was the perfect choice for a celebration song.
Have a fun week-end, my friend.

Cora said...

"high Christian-like standards"? Pffft! For some reason, Zibbs, that just slayed me! Hee hee hee.

Dr Zibbs said...

Cora - I stilllll got it.
