While 'It's Raining Men' was released in the autumn of 1982 by the American music duo The Weather Girls as the lead single for their third studio album, the lyrics describe excitement and enjoyment of many types of men; In contrast, "Bodies" released in 2001 by American rock band Drowning Pool, an ode to the intensity of mosh pits,also enjoyed a good amount of commercial success. Somehow, both songs seem to commemorate the iconic moment in 1998, when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

You get my ass every time. Although this one was even more unexpected. Glad to see you here.

[-] SacredHeartAttack@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Honestly, I dislike both songs. However watching Hell In A Cell on tv with my boys is a memory I will cherish.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

MY EMOTIONS!!!

(in a good way)

[-] lingh0e@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Real Shittymorph or not, the very fact that someone is trying makes me believe that everything will be okay.

[-] count_duckula@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago

I really ought to start looking at usernames before I read comments.

[-] SEND_BUTTPLUG_PICS@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Cause I'm freeeeeee

Free falling....

[-] marswarrior@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

That's hilarious, so many songs about bodies free falling from the sky and hitting the floor, like rain.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

On your wedding day.

I... I feel so alive
For the very first time
And I think I can fly

[-] NotASucker@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I'm back at my cliff, still throwing things off I listen to the sounds they make on their way down I follow with my eyes 'til they crash

[-] No_Eponym@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Into me, baby

God, I love song mashups. It's sometimes shocking how much they slap. My favorite will always be Eye of the Tiger x Fireflies.

[-] galloog1@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Respectfully, that's a good one but I'm yet to hear one that will top Jay Z vs Bach.

[-] Gray@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I'll see your Jay-Z vs Bach and raise you my Hanz Zimmer vs LMFAO.

[-] galloog1@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That was...painful.

[-] TheTokingTurtle@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I actually love both songs, and this is the masterpiece I didn't know I needed in my life.

[-] Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

JFC this is pure entertainment start to finish. Anytime somebody says 'fair use is BS' they'll get this sent to them.

[-] Iamdanno@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It's everything I never knew I ever wanted.

Last time I heard Bodies I was in a CVS parking lot and a pickup truck pulled in blaring it. I nearly lost it when I saw a 40 something dad wearing khakis get out of the truck. Then I realized I was a 40 something dad wearing cargo pants and quietly went back to my car to have a midlife crisis.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 year ago

Bodies hitting the floor could be from any height. Raining implies a great height.

Gods damn it, that is greatest thing my ears have ever heard.

[-] Rhinopotamus@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

You know you found the right online community when you encounter shittymorph. I sure hope it’s the same person.

[-] iegod@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Even if it isn't as long as we're just doing reincarnations we're cool. Like the avatar.

Bruh that meme is older than time

[-] SacredHeartAttack@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

shhhh, no one knows that here ;)

[-] j4k3@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

one side of a storm is a rainbow; the other is dark mettle

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I certainly wouldn't be saying, "hallelujah," if it were raining men. And cleaning up the aftermath would just be horrible. So many corpses...

Imagine if the songs The KKK Took My Baby Away and Fire of Unknown Origin (took my baby away) are talking about one really unfortunate baby that keeps on being taken away by random stuff.

[-] Purebred_BeefMaster@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Third point of view...Mo Bounce by Iggy.

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 1 year ago
[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I suppose Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds, and Free Falling could fit in too.

[-] Usernameblankface@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

This is the best shower thought post I've ever seen. Amazing!
