The last reference was the title of Jason Mraz’s latest album, and it’s also the name of a song on the CD. I absolutely love the sound of this man’s voice, I can’t stress that enough. Amazing.

Anyway, you guys (should) expect more than screaming fan girl-ism from me, so let us move on. Nobody got any points for the second time in a row. Let’s see if we can’t ease things up a little…

Current High Scores
JC Baggee: 9 Points
Arcadia: 5 Points
Shinmaru: 4 Points
Mimmi: 3 Points
Arcadia, Semjaza Azazel, Anatema, Sara, Queen Asuka: 2 Points
Ben, Solo Tremaine, Nerdsy, Lea2385, James: 1 Point



As you see from the latest ShyOtaku redesign, I’ve chosen an awesome Bosko theme. The song being played is “The Merry Go Round Broke Down,” which is more or less the song that is played before the Lonney Tunes cartoons. I say “more or less” because it’s not the exact same song. For one it’s pacing is a lot faster and some of the notes are rearranged, but yeah…

Moving on, here are the lyrics to “The Merry Go Round Broke Down.” I feel like I’m doing a public service by posting them, even though you could have just Goggle’d them like I did…

The Merry Go Round Broke Down
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
And we went round and round
Each time t'would miss, we'd steal a kiss
And the Merry-Go-Round went
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
And it made the darndest sound,
The lights went low, we both said "Oh!"
And the Merry-Go-Round went
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
Oh what fun - a wonderful time
Finding love for only a dime.
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
But you don't see me frown
Things turned out fine and now she's mine -
Cause the the Merry-Go-Round went
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!"
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down.


And now you know the meaning behind the melody, hooray.
