this is what pathetic means

Come now all you peeps who were young and/or hip with it in the 90s. What Vengaboys tune (Yeah, I know. Gah!) does the intro to Paris Hilton's Stars Are Blind come from?

I'm hearing a vague "Mmm-mmm-mmmm [something something] Venga Airways [something something] the Ibiza sky..." behind it, but half an hour of reliving a part of musical history that really really should have been repressed on a global level has made me lose my mind and I give up.


Google is not helpful, but most amusing. As a general rule, I pride myself on my ability to type in words that will NOT lead to porn. (It's possible I'm not good at avoiding the porn at all, it's just that there are very few porn sites with Bakhtin or Plato getting down and dirty with L. M. Montgomery.) But strangely (or not) typing in "'Paris Hilton' Vengaboys'" leads to gross amounts of the nakedness. Why anyone would think that people searching for either of those would be interested in "Free straight guys jerking off videos: jerking a cum and mom ..." is totally beyond me, though. (And I SO don't wantto know what 'mom' has to do with it...)


Please save what precious few brain cells survived this ordeal and tell me what song it is before I actually decide to listen to the Vengaboys album again. Please. Please.

Please.

I'm not sure about the Vengaboys, but perhaps the question should be:

In what Vengaboys song did they rip off UB40's "Kingston Town" and then have Paris Hilton rip off the Vengaboys?

LOL. Incestuous, I tells ya.


I really only know one Vengaboys tune. That's the.. do do do do do dooo do. That one. I have no idea what it's called or any of the words... OH WAIT! It says something about a bus I think. But that's still not the tune you're thinking of.


Google amuses.

I just love how LJ is all reliable with its comment notifications... :/

Hmm... Yeah, I see what you mean. So maybe the Vengaboys rip-off is all in my head and I put the UB40 bit in a Vengaboys song myself. Which is very possible and would explain why I can't find the song... Scary thought, though.

I think I know which one you mean. The stupid one with the horn, right? (How this sets it apart from their other songs I don't know.)

Icon love, btw. I miss Veronica Mars...

Is that really the one? I thought it was as well, but when I listen to it, I just can't find the bit that I'm looking for. But maybe it's all in my head. Or maybe it's that I block it out because it's Vengaboys and my brain hurts too much to really listen... ;)
