This weeks Alphabe-Thursday is brought to us by Jenny, and the letter
When I was in the baby growing years, many many moons ago, there was a song by Paul Anka. It was called Having My Baby.
I made a little video to this song. Please excuse the awful quality of the photo's. My scanner has decided that it has retired, so I had to take pictures of the pictures. Anyphotolater, here you go. Here's the scary thing. Back in the late 70's and early 80's the songs were love songs. You could understand the words. Oh where have those days gone. I've taken the liberty to write what this song would sound like today. I will spare you the actual singing :) And imagine in the venue of rap.

It Ain't My Baby(by Dazee Dreamer)
You say you're having my baby, my babyYou lyin' B$%$& you crazy, you crazyMy thoughts of you are hazy.
We'll go on Maury, in a hurryThen your sorry A** will scurryAs he says it ain't my babyOutta my life you crazy W!@#@
Yeah, so, I will never make it as a rap artist, but you get my drift. I'm glad I was having babies when there was nice songs about it.
I certainly prefer the older version!
ReplyDeleteLoved this!!! And it was so nice that you got each of the different baby daddies to pose with their respective kids. Oh wait. That was in the "olden" days. A much sweeter, gentler time. I feel nostalgic now.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm all teary eyed...
ReplyDeleteYikes! I'll take the old version, thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab post! Many thanks for sharing your 'H' in such a creative way¬!
ReplyDeleteooooooooh!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I love the rap!! The song however I must admit creeps me out for some reason... LOL
ReplyDeleteVery sentimental video:) I remember this song. I think your lyrics sound perfectly suited for the Maury show. Seems like everytime I've visited that program, that is the topic!
ReplyDeleteI love that video and that you turned around the next second and made me laugh. Very funny. Thanks for making me laugh so early. And by the way, since I'm "newish" here, I didn't know you had 30 year old babies. I thought that you were in your late 30s yourself. I really need to pay better attention. m.
ReplyDeleteOh no the video isn't working for me...stupid computer. I'll pretend that it was awesome because I wouldn't expect anything less from an awesome lady like you
ReplyDeleteI remember that song, that time.
ReplyDeleteIt was a better time, a gentler time.
Thanks for the reminder.
Heh. Yes, there is a lot of truth in this post. :)
ReplyDeleteYou know not all rap music is like that! Actually I was a bit shocked to hear that Paul Anka was struggling to hit some of those notes! I think I prefer Diana! :D
ReplyDeleteCute video though. :)
I'm with you!
ReplyDelete=)
I tend to like the older versions of songs.
ReplyDeleteI like older songs. It's real music!! That's a cute video. :) And a hilarious song!!
ReplyDeleteI love that song even though personally I'm not gonna have anyone's baby.
ReplyDeleteMajority rules. Hands down it's the older version!~Ames
ReplyDeleteOMG! I'm lovin' this!!! You are so funny! Great pix, too!
ReplyDelete♥ awwww.
ReplyDeleteWe all love you.
ReplyDeleteI'd say you were pretty accurate update. I always loved the original.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to say that I like your rap version better than the original. That song is one that really grates on my nerves. Yes, you can understand the lyrics. But have you really listened to them? The guys is going on about how the woman is showing she loves the man by having his baby. A little egocentric of him, no? LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the photos you chose. You have a beautiful family. They must be big now! I'm a sentimental fool. I love love, and babies and happy families.
ReplyDelete-Catherine
What a lovely family you have! I remember that song...very well, sadly.
ReplyDeleteI think I attended a wedding or two where the brides family insisted on playing it...ha!
Love your new take on it.
Rap. Not just for violence anymore...now featuring...kinda/sorta love songs.
What a fun stop.
Thanks for the laugh.
