You're Just too Good to Be True

James Franco getting a twitter/facebook was the worst/best thing that ever happened.

Paige, my lovely roommate, has to deal with me always saying "Oh man, you have to see this" a month ago this was usually referring to YouTube videos with cats in them, but ever since James Franco began posting photos and videos I am now usually referring to him. I HAVE REPLACED CATS WITH JAMES FRANCO. This is no bueno... cats should always come first. The worst part is sometimes the two collide, then SHIT GETS REAL. I'm beginning to think I should just change this blog to be only about me and James Franco, then it would be a little more focused than me just blogging about random shit (but mostly James Franco) ... oh well. World, you're just gonna have to deal.

Now onto the point of the entry. James Franco posts this video of him humming and then singing along to Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You". Although he is basically asleep, it's still adorable. Why? Because he is James Franco

James Franco on WhoSay

So after I watched that, I OF COURSE thought of Heath Ledger's rendition of the song from 10 Things I Hate About You (my favorite rom-com in existence)... For your viewing pleasure here is the late and great Heath Ledger stealing every woman's heart... probably a couple guy's hearts as well.


After watching this video, I thought to myself (and out loud to my roommate). What if someone actually did this for me? ... Well I would have to say if you aren't Heath Ledger, or a Franco, (which you probably aren't since Heath is dead and no Franco is reading my blog. No one reads my blog let alone a Franco. Aaaand lets be honest for at least one second: no Franco would do this for me even if they were reading my blog. I may hope and dream, but it ain't gonna happen) don't do this. It will end up being creepy. I would be freaked out. Maybe thats just me and my commitment/relationship issues speaking. Don't get me wrong, I would be flattered, but seriously a whole band playing the song? I would feel obligated to date the person who did this for me, and lets be real this performance/display of affection could never be topped so just don't go there.

Okay, so I officially have "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" stuck in my head. Lets give Frankie Valli some credit for creating a song that I will probably be singing all week long, cause (secretly) I'm going to watch the James Franco video at least five more times in the next week, I may even have to watch 10 Things I Hate About You. I mean fuck it, its spring break I can do whatever I please and I happen to like watch attractive men sing (to me).

Here's the OG song:

Which I'm going to note that the video has 3,619 "Likes" and only 26 "Dislikes". You 26 weird-ass, dumb-ass, nasty-ass people who disliked this song can suck my cock, or whatever, basically you are dumb and I disapprove of your existence.

So basically ever since I watched the James Franco video I have been humming and singing this song all day. And as a joke (or for reals) I turned to Paige, my roommate (the lovely one), as I was dramatically belting the song and paused to say "I'm gonna sing this song at my wedding" the look she gave me was a mixture of pure horror and slight disgust, so I think all systems-a-go for the day I actually decide to settle down and get married. I'll most likely be drunk, or at least drinking, so why not? I hope some police chase after me and try to escort me from my own wedding. That would be YouTube GOLD. Gimme 10 years. YouTube, if you're still around you better be ready for this.

Last thing I have to say: Muse covered this song too?!


I just started singing the song again and this is the response I get "I'm going go to bed before I punch you" -Paige Smith
