Riu Chiu is an old Spanish thing, broads.
Lest I be labelled a potential murderer, I did give Bet the opportunity to use Ca Plane Por Moi without fear of death. It's just that it was going to be my pick, but then I went with something else. And I probably wouldn't have killed her anyway.
Randy Newman wrote Mama Told Me Not To Come.
I have to quit listening to the Hucklebug on my commute. Even though this episode was a fake one, I found myself siting on the El, laughing and laughing, and trying to hide the laughing. In fact, at one point, I snorted. I am not generally a snorter, so you should feel honored.
So you want a grade? Fine. I give you an 92%. Your grade would have been higher if I hadn't have found out that the CD mix stuff wasn't a live recording, but a re-recording.
When are you going to start recording in front of a live studio audience?
PS:
RIU CHIU
--------
Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera,
Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera.
El lobo rabioso la quiso morder,
Mas Dios poderoso la supo defender;
Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar,
Ni aun original esta Virgen no tuviera.
Riu, riu chiu...
Este qu'es nacido es el gran monarca,
Christo patriarca de carne vestido;
Hemos redemido con se hazer chiquito,
Aunqu'era infinito, finito se hiziera.
Riu, riu chiu...
Translated:
River, roaring river, guard our homes in safety,
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady.
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady.
Raging mad to bite her, there the wolf did steal,
But our God Almighty defended her with zeal.
Pure He wished to keep Her so She could never sin,
That first sin of man never touched the Virgin sainted.
River, roaring river...
He who's now begotten is our mighty Monarch,
Christ, our Holy Father, in human flesh embodied.
He has brough atonement by being born so humble,
Though He is immortal, as mortal was created.
Not my translation - I found this during the Napster days when downloading the song.
Songs about virgins are so rare these days...
Outakes are an A+ - would love to see you guys on Amazing Race. Those lyrics are too much - many LOL moments on this. If you guys start laughing - how can we NOT start laughing as well??
I absolutely loved getting the chance to hear Bet sing God Bless America. And - I'm quite shocked to hear that Jailhouse rock has an x-rated version! But - the best is Lucy fighting the lions!
Some old comments - I say "getting your picture made." Perhaps it is a southern thang. And about the insurance lizard - what exactly IS "pie & chips"? Are we talking pizza pie or cherry pie? These with fries? I don't get it - I don't like that the lizard is more "in the know"
Keep up the good work!
I think it's meat pie and fries.
I love the outtakes - I liked them every bit as much as the regular show. Maybe you should stop editing out the parts where you crack up because that's the funniest!
Grade? I'm giving you a B+. The show is great but I don't want you to think you've reached perfection yet - then you'd just coast.
One line from King of Beers I wish you'd mentioned, Stennie, is: "She's so beautiful, I swear I'd sleep with her brother."
