Except he was doing "Get on the Good Foot" to "Get in the Hottub!"

Pretty funny stuff, though.

Heck of an odd playlist here

James Brown - Get Up Offa That Thing
Götz Alsmann - When I Get Low I Get High
Vince Guaraldi Trio - Linus and Lucy

Yeah, there is a common theme, sort of, maybe - but its just struck me as a little odd.

The Gotz Alsmann in the middle is what threw it for me.


Put Miles Davis - Mystery in the middle this time... does that work for you? :-)
