The other day, The Husband was looking through my iPod to see what music I had. He was sitting quietly on the couch with it, until he suddenly exclaimed, “Ugh! Ugh! UGH!” When I looked over at him he was making a face like he’d eaten a bug.
“What’s wrong with you?” I asked.
He turned the iPod around toward me and pointed at the screen. “Ugh! Ugh! UGH!”
He had discovered Hanson’s “MMMBop” hidden in my music files.
But come on, it’s a fun song! I always sing along to it and dance in my seat. Even at the office. (It helps liven up my day since I’m usually sitting by myself in a room in the back.)
Besides, I don’t think he has any right to criticize my music tastes. I’ve had to spend the last ten years educating him on Led Zeppelin, the Eagles, Pink Floyd, Steve Miller Band–all the classic rock music my parents raised me on that he had never really listened to because his parents listen only to country.
Seriously, what’s wrong with “MMMBop”? It’s so much fun to sing and dance to. I think it’s the perfect song for Wednesdays, to help brighten up the middle of the week.
There’s nothing wrong with some Mmmmbob. I was coming through the cd racks last week and came across a newer hanson CD. I wished they had a preview at Target where you could listen to it, because I really wanted to hear what type of songs they were doing. I have no idea how old the cd was, though.
They do still make music and go on tours, but I haven’t listened to any of their newer work until just now. I went to their website and watched two videos they have linked. Pretty good! 🙂
Interesting. I might have to check out the Web site, too.
What fun! Thanks for posting that happy little song. I was never a Hanson fan, but I always appreciated the androgyny of three boys. Very cool!
You’re welcome! It is a fun and happy song! 🙂
i would have to agree with you =]
Thanks! 🙂
I have some embarrasing music in my Ipod too. Maybe I’ll add MMMMbop.It’s a catchy littly ditty!

I’ve been trying to resist downloading Spice Girls songs because I know how much my husband would tease me for that. 😉 MMMBop is catchy, it’s been stuck in my head all day!
yay! you know I love Hanson =D
ps, a few months ago they were on the Tom Green WebOVision and he was teasing them about this video… about the rollerblading. haha. “hey, rollerblading was cool back then!” hehe
pps, watching this makes me so sentimental! they are all grown up now… I can’t believe they are all married and will soon have 5 kids between all of them!
Yeah, I just saw recently where Zach and his wife announced that they’re expecting! I hadn’t listened to their recent music, but I just went to the website and listened to some. I’m going to have download some of their newer music! 🙂
if you download the song “great divide” the money goes to a hospital in south africa that is helping to stop mother-to-baby AIDS tranfer. it’s a good cause and a good song! 🙂
I never liked MMMBop, but I liked the other songs on the CD a lot, especially A Minute Without You and Speechless. I listened to a lot of Hanson back in the day when my sister really liked them.
I like those too. I also like Weird and Where’s the Love. 🙂
