In a hurry to be fed, beady eyes and big blue head.
I’m telling the truth Doc, you gotta believe me,
Why does everything I whip leave me?
My beautiful chocolate! Candy is dandy,
Fava beans and a nice Chianti,
You can count on Slippery Pete,
Suicide will be nice and neat!
I didn’t build the Panama canal,
Open the pod bay doors please, HAL.
These and the title are just some of the lyrics that Ricardo Autobahn has put together from many, many television shows and movies and prime time cartoons in order to create a cohesive and remarkably catchy video called The Golden Age of Video.
It’s golden. It’s worth sharing and it’s heavy on a Bill Murray crush. Imagine how well you have to know TV shows, movies and quotes to even come close to this?
We came, we saw, we kicked it’s ass,
You don’t understand I coulda had class,
Round and tasty on a bun,
Ooh Zippy look what you’ve done!
Finally! Cast off those lines!
No, I’ve been nervous lots of times,
Red Rum! What’s the matter honey?
Just robbed Boss Hogg all of his money!
We came, saw, we kicked it’s ass,
Writing checks your body can’t cash,
I was elected to lead, not read,
I feel the need – the need for speed,
Watch out for snakes, a good man’s loafer,
HQ – my hat looks like a muffin – over,
My god it’s full of stars,
There was no driver in the car..
Hat’s off to Jason Kottke, a favorite media blogger of mine, for pointing this out.
