IETV, Internet Evolution's new video portal, has added another dimension to the site. In fact, it's sort of made us feel like we're living in another dimension, like the Twilight Zone.
Therefore, it is with just a touch of newfound, digitally enhanced insanity that we bring you "Deck the Web" -- a beautifultouchingmoderately disturbing... well, an interesting holiday song as written and sung by us. For you.
With an off-beat tune in our hearts and just the right amount of snark, we composed this little ditty as our gift to you for the holidays (yeah, sorry, that's all you're getting... recession and all). Call it Christmas meets Web 2.0, call it a reason to suggest we up our medication. We just hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it... or, well, maybe even more, because for us this was a bit mortifying.
So, without further ado, we present Internet Evolution's very first holiday carol: Deck the Web!
By the way, if you have a tune you'd like to sing to us, feel free to upload your very own holiday song on our video message boards! Come on, who needs dignity and self-worth when you can have out-of-tune songs about the Internet?
On that note (note! Get it?)... We hope you enjoy it. Happy Holidays, everyone!
That was lovely, just lovely. I hate the holidays as much as the next guy, and that song helped to put the icing on my holiday humbug.
I give you guys much applause. You have great big jingle balls to sing a video blog in such an excruciatingly slow tempo. I think if anyone insists on my singing xmas carols this year, I will joyously exclaim, "Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah!".
Keep up the good work! We all need some giggles these days!
I personally think Darth Veider has a great voice for Christmas Caroling. Can you breath like him?:) Then all these lalalala and blahblahblah could be substituted by these heavy ooooooopaaaaaaa(don't really know how to text these amazing sounds:)))
Guys! Thank you so much! Now I know, that my favourite editors are not only the smartest and the funniest, but also the most talented singers I have ever heard. I am telling you, record a single and it will become platinum and then all opera singers in the world commit suicide when they realize how they should sing:)))) but they never ever can even dream about that talent!!!!
Hey Paul! You reaaaally don't want me singin! It is like a polar bear with a toothache meets darth vader meets a thunder storm, small children run away scared when I sing!!! ;)
FYI, you are at the right place and at the right time!! IE is the place for people with a darth vader voice like you. Welcome to the IE boards and I'm looking forward to hearing your earth-shatering and defeaning voice. Be rest assured our ears would be well insulated should in case your voice exceeds IE's stipulated decibel!!
As a new player in the IE family, they didn't invite me to sing, and with my darth vader voice and cheeky Animal House like personality, and having been asked to sing for Heavy Metal and Alternative bands in college! Heck, they needed to bring me in on this one, and then all of you would have even more to make fun of... but after hearing me sing, you might all be def for life!!! ;) This was fun and very cute, great job to Nicole and her cohorts!!!
If Nicole wants Iambic, I am her man.I will rhyme it like Shakespeare, as fast as I can.
If she get down on rap, I be the shit.I throw down with homies and gangstas, no quit.
For some crazy reason, I do this real time.I begin to talk, it just comes out as rhyme.With rhythm and meter the words they just flow.How do I do this, I don’t really know.
My left brain is broken, it has a screw loose.I think as a kid, I read too much Seuss
