And I'd be "Ok" with taking my daughter to see the Fresh Beat Band. Catchy songs I find myself singing.

We won four tickets to the second row of Yo Gabba Gabba when it was here last month, and I have to admit - it was sorta awesome, Biz Markie was there. The Fresh Beats get stuck in my head, too. I much prefer them to anything from Wonder Pets.

Also, on the topic of the thread, and relevant to the above paragraph:

Biz Markie - Just a Friend

I listen to this and "Got Some Teeth" by Obie Trice fairly regularly, because each makes me laugh.

2 songs that make me cringe, but for some reason I will always listen to the whole damn song and smile in disbelief.

This one...

It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday!

I know this was mentioned earlier, but I don't believe anyone brought up the obligatory fact that part of this was filmed in Ames.

It really is just a catchy freaking song, with local roots.

I can't stand Adele. I freaking love this song. I'm so conflicted about it.... [video=youtube;MsdP5NzWZg8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsdP5NzWZg8[/video]
