everything but the girl

I know there's been an influx of vid posting here recently - but it's completely eaten my brain the way it did back in college when I worked in the school tv station and edited vids for things like Spring Fling and various college performing arts groups on 3/4 inch tape and made credits on an Amiga.

And you know what happens when something eats your brain?

It turns into crack.

Warning - Season Three Finale Spoiler:

Unnamed sources close to Eric Kripke have revealed that the opening song montage finale for the truncated Season Three will not feature "Carry On Wayward Son", as in the previous two seasons. Instead the montage will be set to "Livin' la Vida Loca" by Ricky Martin.

It was tagged "this is a joke" (ALAS!) and cathybites wondered:

Is it wrong that I really really REALLY kind of want that?

I asked if that was a vid request, Cathy said yes, especially for the Shrek version, Missy concurred and juice817 gave me the song, which I unfortunately did not already own.

And I put together this. Total crack, and a counterpoint for my recent angstvidding.

Title: Livin' la Vida Loca!

Song Originally From: Shrek II
