This was inspired by Lance’s selection for the day, in that it also falls firmly in the category of “I randomly heard or thought of this song one day and remembered how awesome it is and holy crap I can totally hear myself singing this and I’m going to bust this out at karaoke next time!”

Which, of course, was followed by “Oh man, I can’t hit these notes at all and this is horrible and can we skip this song please? It’s ok that I’m in the middle of it.” Actually, I think I was trying it in a private room with Lance, so it was easy to skip. But man, it’s all about those couple of a cappella opening lines. So awesome. MUST NOT GIVE IN TO TEMPTATION AND FORGET I CAN’T SING THIS.
