OMM 0910 You are right. everything is normal, you are at school or at work and all is logical until suddenly, without warning, lone scruffy man starts to sing... They are here. Antropomorphic ice-cream cones with human faces. Lollipop men. They look at you. They dance inanely. They are here with you now. Spasming in incomprehensible jamboree were you can make out words: "Sugar, Sugar, Honey, Honey." They are here.
I often wonder what greater good could have been accomplished if the dedication put into this was derived towards something more philanthropic. But then I remember that laughter is the best medicine...or something. First prize!
God bless this miniseries. Sugar Sugar is one of my favorite Simpsons moments, so I can't help but feel like this series was made specifically for me, even though I know it wasn't :)
When people hear this song: Some of them think of memories from the 70's when it was first released Some of them think of Gingey from Shrek 2 singing it Some of them think of another movie, or commercial, or tv show that referenced it *As for myself and other intellectuals, we think of this.*
I just think of the two episodes of The Simpsons that used this song: the season five episode where Bart joins the Junior Campers and the season 13 episode where Marge gets sugar banned from Springfield after Springfield is named the fattest city in America thanks to a Guinness Book of World Records stunt gone wrong.
