Hatu!
Posted: August 31, 2008 Filed under: Of Mice and Men 3 CommentsYesterday while the Romgi and I were watching the BYU football game (painful 3rd quarter eh?), they showed a shot of a red flag waving. It was on the screen for several seconds and looked something like this:
Bewildered, I said, “What on earth is Hatu?!”
I’m sure you can guess what that flag really says. All it takes is a little bit of backwards-reading skill. Maybe they’re right about pregnancy lowering your IQ…
Go Hatu!
Success At Last!
Posted: July 25, 2008 Filed under: Of Mice and Men 2 CommentsI guess the third time really is the charm. Recently I wanted to try the fresco somethingorother steak soft taco at Taco Bell. After ordering it twice, getting home and realizing they gave me a chicken somethingorother soft taco instead, I finally went and ordered only the steak taco so as to minimize confusion. And they got it right! It was a tasty taco. I recommend it.
Also, unrelated, I’ve been trying for the past 5 years to find out who this song is by. It doesn’t really have distinguishable lyrics – only something about “love you, I would love you” (which is completely unhelpful in a Google search) and maybe “always I would.” Everyone tried to insist it was by Enya, and I admit it does sound quite a bit like her. But it’s not Enya. I knew it wasn’t. Tonight I searched for “Enya love song NOT Enya” and discovered (like I didn’t already know) that this is one of many songs often miscredited to Enya. Although the article referenced a list of commonly attributed songs, the link was broken.
But believe it or not, someone on YouTube knew what they were talking about! Seriously! I was shocked, too. In a video claiming to be “Enya – Love Song,” someone posted a comment informing us that the song is actually composed by Ronan Hardiman, performed by Leslie Dowdall. Even more shocking: they were totally right! I verified it and everything.
So…after 5 long years, I can now conclusively say that this song is NOT by Enya!
Here’s the YouTube video correctly identifying the song. Sorry, WordPress won’t let me upload audio.
Enjoy!
