The Goon Line 036: Prisencolinensinainciusol
No, I didn't fall down on my keyboard
I haven’t researched if eclipses make people behave differently, but were I to write the movie of the way I think life should be, everyone would spontaneously break into coordinated song and dance during a planetary event like this one. And why not engage in this wacky behavior during a wacky event to a very wacky (and delightful, I promise) song?

Prisencolinensinainciusol is an Italian song with entirely made-up lyrics that is intended to sound like American pop music. And here’s the thing: It bangs. (That is the best video version; I am sorry it’s a Facebook link that I cannot embed here, but I highly encourage you to watch it.) As you know, I love strong commitment to a bit, and writer/performer Adriano Celentano goes full-tilt on this one. Maybe a bit I will do later today is stare directly into the sun for 45 consecutive unblinking minutes. LOL!
So, if you need to add more to your eclipse playlist outside of Little Shop, Bonnie Tyler and Cat Stevens, here ya go. Have fun getting Homer Crust Eyes!
