Hey Oh!

Song of the night: “Snow (Hey Oh)” by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Incredibly awesome musically, the music video is pretty neat too: I’m not really sure who we’re seeing, but, among the cliche video of them singing on stage, you get ‘video portraits’ of probably hundreds of seemingly-random people. Simple, and yet strangely novel.

Unlike some of their other songs, this one didn’t find its way into Guitar Hero or Rock Band. I think that the first people in charge of making the decision of what songs made the cut got distracted and are still in an office somewhere, playing the video over and over again, singing along quietly. Unable to break them from their trances, the others decided the song was simply too awesome to be fit for general consumption.

I’m on my fourth time in a row. And when it’s done, I’m probably going to go for #5. Roommates, I apologize in advance if I advertently wake you up tonight while I mumble about snow and the cover of another public wonder in my sleep.  You might play this song to drown me out.
