Anna Kendrick - Cups
“
I
really like this one. Do you? - MoSup
I like
the rythems, but her voice is a little watery against the music, at
least on my cheap ass computer speakers.
She sounds a bit week against the music on my earphones also. Scratch made bread and biscuits by hand reminds me about the stories I heard about Great Grandma "Grunt" after almost half a lifetime scratch making bread and biscuits she had a hand and arm strength strong enough to pinch the love handle of one of her adult children or grandchildren and lift and make them dance on their toes if they gave her any sass.
I enjoyed the Irish school kids doin it in Gaelic. Got the link in e-mail a coupla months ago. Don't know a syllable of Gaelic, but still smiled watchin the kids sing it and rhythmize with the cups.
I think this is the one you mean, bocopro. First I heard of any of it was yesterday and this was it. I like it better even if I can't understand the words. Not being able to understand the language a woman uses is often a good thing. GrinfilledCelt
MoSup asked "What language is that? If you've never seen Irish (and I had not) HERE

Laoibhse Ní Nualláin agus co. 600 rannpháirtithe idir scolairí agus foireann Curiarracht dhomhanda - go bhfios dúinn lyrics Tá an ticéad a’am don bhealach fada Dhá bhuidéal uisce don thuras Is ba bhreá liom cara a bheith in éindí liom Mé ag fágáil amárach, mbeidh tú liom?
If she can make decent biscuits she's a keeper. Any singing is just icing on the cake.

Love it. And loved watching Pitch Perfect about six times now. Even my husband likes watching it and this video. :)

Tá an ticéad a’am don bhealach fada
Dhá bhuidéal uisce don thuras
Is ba bhreá liom cara a bheith in éindí liom
Mé ag fágáil amárach, mbeidh tú liom?
WTF??
I think there's also a duet version of the cup song- just search for 'two girls, one cup.'

Just saw the Irish cups.Thanks GrinfilledCelt. Kids were amazing and having fun.
ReplyDeleteThis foursome was the first version I had ever seen. I don't care for the dizzying camera work.
