Ouch. I felt that I needed a laugh this morning. What better song than one of the most horrible songs from the 80s? Off the Debbie Gibson album Electric Blue, comes "We Could be Together." Truly a hallmark of bubblegum pop. Thankfully, it didn't get too popular, probably owing to the vacuum of babysitting money changing hands at that time.
The video has everything. Baaaad dancing. Sampled hand claps. I think I see Satan in the background. Everything a popular 80s song should be. To add insult to injury, Debbie Gibson went naked in Playboy 17 years after she should have (I mean, who cared in 2005?), and performed with the Circle Jerks at CBGB. Knowing that, I am totally saddened.
Be thankful that I just showed this song, for there is an acoustic "Campfire Mix" to this song, that has one of the most badly done endings in all of creation (the song ends totally flat on a badly sung, too-long held note). Also, the dude who would sing this at a campfire would have to be buried and killed next to said campfire. I'm just saying.
Enjoy your Saturday kids.
