IMOGEN!

FGS (Fort Worth, TX) and I randomly were watching Saturday Night Live a few weeks ago. I say randomly, because, as many of my loyal readers know, the Great Wiki Karmel does not watch SNL. Not because I don't like it, but more because I never think to watch it (either I'm busy or watching something else). Anyway... a great digital short came on and FGS and I were instant fans.

Fast forward a week or two. Cato, our favorite vagabond, is currently in town before becoming an illegal alien. He was playing some music for us and put on some Imogen Heap. The song is playing for a minute or so and then the chorus came on. FGS and I instantly look at each other and start laughing: the song from the digital short. This was Friday night.

Much to the annoyance of several of my loyal readers, Cato, FGS, "Yakkity Yak, Don't Talk Back" and I have been singing the chorus for the last two days. I encourage all of my loyal readers to watch the video so we don't sound crazy (explaining the video and why it's funny is difficult).

Because this is Wiki Karmel, and I like to delve a little deeper into all topics, "Dear Sister" is a parody of the Season 2 finale of "The O.C." Apparently there is a slow motion murder scene at the end of the episode where they play the song from Dear Sister. The song is called Hide and Seek. It's great. But it will get stuck in your head. You've been warned.
