I did this vid in my livingroom in January of 2008. I learned it because I like it, it was a big deal on YouTube at the time and I wanted to throw my hat in. The secret is I didn't know how to play or sing it. I spent an hour practicing, and the reason why my eyes look closed most of the time is because I was reading the words I scribbled on the floor. I also tried to act like there were other people there to make it more authentic - so I wouldn't look so pathetic. Nobody was there, I'm pathetic.
For proof, at about 17 seconds, you'll see me look to the left and lift my head. I was looking at a monitor and noticed my face wasn't in the frame so I adjusted.
My life - fuck me.
