Eric said...: LOL Good one!
Have you all ever heard the 'Me First and the Gimmie Gimme's cover of this one'? (without the improved lyrics, of course); July 8, 2009 at 8:50 AM
MJenks said...: I think your hovertext is broken.

Not that I don't not get it. I do, I do. I just like seeing hovertext used.; July 8, 2009 at 9:50 AM
Shawn said...: Zep made a big mistake. "Disabled Access Ramp to Heaven" would have probably been a huge hit. Shame.; July 8, 2009 at 9:52 AM
Soda and Candy said...: Eric - No, I haven't, it sounds like young people's music though.
; )

mjenks - Bugger! Thanks, I totally forgot! It's fixed now.

Shawn - I think so too!; July 8, 2009 at 9:54 AM
sj said...: hilarious. and obviously, he realized that sequins are not always shiny. he should, however, have considered bugle beads.; July 8, 2009 at 11:12 AM
SkylersDad said...: I believe you missed the first line re-works, as I heard they were:
There is a girl, or women, or perhaps a lady who may or may not be quite certain.; July 8, 2009 at 11:34 AM
Gwen said...: I'd be more inclined to try for heaven if there was an escalator. As it stands, I'll stick with my my handbasket to hell. Much easier.; July 8, 2009 at 12:23 PM
mo.stoneskin said...: I can't decide whether or not I agree with Shawn. But if LZ had gone for that title the song may have brought a different response!; July 8, 2009 at 12:41 PM
Soda and Candy said...: SJ - Very true. : )

SkyDad - Hahaha, nice work. You should do a complete one of another song for me!

Gwen - Right? You just throw a couple of cushions in, and it's a comfy ride!

Mo - Hahaha, I know!; July 8, 2009 at 1:18 PM
Soda and Candy said...: I am a retard and accidentally rejected these comments but was able to grab them:

Beckeye said: Yeah, but what was "If there's a bustle in your hedgerow" originally??

Wordsx3 said: I always thought everything that glitters was Bedazzled. I like the new addition of handwritten notes... most excellent : ); July 8, 2009 at 4:06 PM
Soda and Candy said...: Beckeye - Sorry, Original Drafts are only based on lyrics I know - for anything that's not on my iPod, it's gonna be chorus only!

Words - Hahaha, Bedazzled! Thanks!; July 8, 2009 at 4:07 PM
Laura said...: I found you through the girl with the pink teacup's blog. This is great!

And I don't knoew where I would be without the Aussie translation posts.; July 8, 2009 at 4:09 PM
rachaelgking said...: *snarf* at "disabled access ramp".; July 8, 2009 at 5:11 PM
Soda and Candy said...: Lola - Thanks! I really should try to up the amount of Aussie content, but I can't think of any new words!

LiLu - Heh. That's my favorite bit too. Hey, the disabled have to get to heaven too, right?; July 8, 2009 at 5:13 PM
the girl with the pink teacup said...: OH. MY. GOD.

I knew you'd make this awesome, Soda, but you've smashed all my feeble expectations of mere awesomeness and replaced it with PURE GENIUS!

* The handwritten corrections. Oh, Lordy, so good. So, so good.

* The red pen for the corrections - did the guys in Led Zeppelin once aspire to schoolteaching posts as a backup plan if they couldn't make it big?

* Disabled access ramp. Cannot laugh harder at this or I'll fracture a rib.

Thank you for making my wildest Original Drafts dreams come true :)

Heavenly.

And DITTO GWEN!; July 8, 2009 at 6:16 PM
Mr O said...: These are always so cool. I love how I declare myself a music nut, yet it takes me like five reads to "get it" but this was one had me laughing; July 9, 2009 at 1:00 AM
Soda and Candy said...: Girl - Hehehehe, thanks! You are the best.

Mr O - Yeah, aren't you like, a music guy? tsk tsk!; July 9, 2009 at 12:14 PM
Cora said...: LOL @ Gwen!; July 9, 2009 at 6:27 PM
