One weird thing leads to another...

A couple years ago, we were flattered (and a little bit confounded) when DJ (or DJ's?) Them Jeans' decided to mash up Rich Boy's hit "Throw Some D's" with our song, "Oh Mandy". We were so pleased with the results that we even incorporated lyrics of the rap into the bridge of the song during live shows for a brief period of time (a Daytrotter session later immortalized this, however!).

What a strange thing it was to be providing music for Rich Boy to sing about girls having pictures of his dick "on they walls". The only thing that could have made it stranger would be a YouTube video of four dudes in animal hats dancing to said mashup.

Well, the internet is awesome:

Out of all the youtube videos I've seen of people dancing in their living rooms, this is by far the strangest. Awesome.

Really hilarious.
Btw, will you ever sing that chorus again?

I've asked for the Throw Some D's bridge several times, but it never seems to happen. Hopefully this will be an excuse to bring it back.

I inclination not approve on it. I regard as warm-hearted post. Expressly the title attracted me to be familiar with the unscathed story.
