[hider=Just storing this away here. It's not the funniest of rants, unless you count how petty a concern it is.]

Goddammit. I just learned that [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhUkGIsKvn0]my 4th or 5th favorite song from the 70s[/url] has been revived like twice, and both revivals have been completely piss-poor.  

I mean, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I2MHj1iDIU]the first re-doage[/url] was [i]kind of[/i] alright, it certainly had [i]potential[/i], but the music at parts overpowered the vocals so bad that it left me less feeling like I was listening to a great song and more strugglig to hear what the fuck he was saying. they didn't seem to have any sense of timing about it, like [i]maybe[/i] this loud noise would drown out some of the [i]music[/i] if we put it at the same fucking volume as his voice. Turns out, I wouldn't have wanted to listen anyway because they changed the lyrics into some over-encouraging disney bullshit. I mean, sure the first version probably isn't very overwhelmingly "PC" by today's standards, since stereotypes are mentioned, but they were at least attempting to tell a goddamn story. A story about Kung Fu movies, kind of like the one this song was invoked and rebooted for... Here, no attempt was made to tell a story, presumably because they already had one, and thus they decided it should be all about how you're a special snowflake and you should do your goddamn homework. Buuuuulllllll-shit. They should've at least retold the story in the panda movie instead. Not everyone wants to listen to your disgusting Disney-fied cocksnot. Still, though, if it had one thing going for it, it was Cee Lo Green and Jack Black singing the same song. 

The [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvRzBQtHlYE]third rehash,[/url] though?... Ungodly! An abomination! Everything that was wrong with the first rewrite and then some. If you put it on a cd and slid it across your lawn, the grass would die underneath it. It would also turn invisible, because I doubt even visible light itself would want to be associated with that trash. They just hired a discount Skrillex to make the background beeps and honks and then made a discount 1D sing the words, even more disgustingly saccharine than the last fucking time, but this time it's worse because you can feel the eldritch ooze of 50-year-old boardroom members struggling to make the association 'hip' and 'relevant'. God, I feel hurl-ey!

It... It just seems like this should be more of an outrage than it probably is.
