Remember Mark Day? Showing he still cares, he’s jumped on the Double Dream Hands wave with a cat. It’s a rather perfect formula, and an irresistibly inviting thumbnail even before I knew it was Mark’s cat. Cats sell, kids. Forget what your marketing teachers ever told you about cows.
To recap the “Double Dream Hands” saga:
- the original video was placed up on Dec. 6, 2010.
- A Beyonce parody appeared almost instantly (see it). I dig Ablazer1818’s techno-rock version.
- This Dec. 17 high-school “Double Dream Hands” gymnasium version could turn Eeyor into Tigger.
- I found it on Jan. 16, and BEGGED Tosh 2.0 to feature him. I even bought the yellow shirt, which I’ve worn maybe 10 times even though not yet as intended (a parody).
- Perhaps coincidentally (but I’d like to think I helped), just weeks later the world’s most animated choreographer appeared on Ellen to do a birthday number of Planet Rock.
- DanceTube has done a nice top-5 “best video replies,” which include a dude dressed as a cat (we’re not sure if it’s Mark Day or not).
P.S. I’ll bet you a solid hunk of feta cheese that if you click this link you’ll have this Tigger song stuck on your head for the day.
Better than having that stupid “Friday” song stuck in my head!
Wtf was that?? I am completely mystified with the apparent fascination with the original video. Its stupid but not stupid enough to be funny. And what the fuck is planet rock? And why does this jacobson dude think anybody else would be interested in this ‘choreography?’ what the hell am I missing here?
Ditto what Sukatra said.
You probably should have saved this for Caturday
Slow news day?
