I can’t believe I’m doing this…   You’re a stronger person than I am if you can watch this video and still take this band seriously. All I’m going to say… When to listen: DON’T!!!!

Next up on the playlist is a song that… well you really don’t need a Holiday as an excuse to listen to this one… Not the most politically correct song, but I can’t tell you how many drunken karaoke nights I’ve done around the Holiday where me and a few friends got up and sang this one… no I do not have video.
