• Comments: Just how the heck do I describe this...thing? LOL.
  
  THE CONCEPT:
  One day while watching Veggie Tales with my 3 year-old daughter I heard this song. I thought "This song is really messed up. It'd be one weird vid". So I decided to make it using various anime (There's no way in hell all this stuff could be found in one show).
  
  THE VID:
  By the time I finished this vid I was on the verge of hating it. It took me a month to make. It shouldn't have taken a month, but about 2 weeks worth of that time was trying to figure out just what the heck ta use for the lines in the song. I was originally just gonna call it "Anime Infomercial", but about halfway through, finding the footage for the lines started to feel like a scavenger hunt and so the name was born.
  
  THE FOOTAGE:
  It's really a mixer here. I was working with DVD footage and HK release footage and the difference shows. I smoothed the Kodocha footage as much as I could. It's not hideous, but it could look so much better. I'll prolly fix it when Kodocha comes to the US (It got licensed by Funimation).
  
  THE SONG:
  It's pretty much just a long list of stuff for sale in a catalog. The lyrics will be at the bottom of the description. A LOT of the stuff makes absolutely no sense. It's a very strange song.
  
  LIP SYNCH:
  A good amount in here. Mostly in the begining.
  
  EFFECTS:
  Not much really. A couple of inverts and fast blurs.
  
  :::DRINK SPIT WARNING!!!::: Do not drink anything while watching this unless you're looking forward to buying yourself a new keyboard. I'm not kidding.
  
  LYRICS (Yes, these really are true):
  
  Check it out
  Check it out
  
  If you want a big hat
  We got that
  
  If you need a tube of glue
  We got that too
  
  A 20 gallon wok?
  They're in stock
  
  And if you need refrigerators
  To keep extra mashed potatoes
  Or a giant air compressor
  To blow fruit flies off your dresser
  Or a dehydrated strudel
  Or a nose ring for your poodle
  Or a five pound can of tuna
  And some flippers to go scuba
  
  Scuba! Scuba! Scooby-doo-be-doo-ba!
  Here we go, scuba! Come on!
  
  If you need a rubber hose
  We got those!
  
  A rhododendron tree
  We got three!
  
  A wrap-around deck
  Gotta check!
  
  But if you need a window scraper
  And a gross of toilet paper
  Or a rachet set and pliers
  And surround sound amplifiers
  And a solar turkey chopper
  Or a padded gopher bopper
  Flannel shirts for looking grungy
  And some rope for goin' bunji
  
  Bunji! Bunji! Bunji-wun-gee-fun-gee!
  Here we go, bunji! Come on!

  *Cough* Well, um, yeah. LOL
  
  So...please review. Even if you just say "good job", it still makes me happy. And I always reply when someone reviews my vids (Even if it takes a while sometimes). Sometimes you might even get a review in return. :)
  
  Thank you to my beta viewers: Save Fidelity, Bakkadeshi, Downwithpants, Vega Sailor and DOkool. You guys rock!
  
  On a side note: The DBZ section was done by Save Fidelity, who whined and pestered me until I let him do those 2 seconds ^_~ (I love ya kiddo). LOL! But this is still my vid. The Contest version will have something different in that spot.
  
  Anyhoo, Enjoy. ^_^
