I managed to catch about three minutes of the clusterfuck that is the TV show “My Dad Is Better Than Your Dad” last night (don’t ask), and all I could think about (besides “holy hell that’s Rock N’ Jock maestro Dan Cortese!!”) was how much I love Mclusky.
The above is a live video for “To Hell With Good Intentions”. If you’re not familiar with the now-defunct band, one of their strongest selling points (among everything else, really) was their lyrics. Take a look at a few of the couplets pulled from this song:
My love is bigger than your love
We take more drugs than a touring funk bandMy band is better than your band
We’ve got more songs than a song conventionMy dad is bigger than your dad
He’s got eight cars and a house in Ireland
See where the tie-in is coming? Replace “bigger” with “better” on this song, use it as the shows theme, and all of a sudden “My Dad…” becomes worth actually watching. OK, probably not. Not even the all-powerful Mclusky could redeem this monstrosity.
Instead, why don’t continue after the jump for easily one the scariest/creepiest/disturbing videos I have ever seen. That cat gives me nightmares.
That song is fucking incredible.
