dolorous_ettThe Carrot Song - saga continues!
I am so inadequate that I actually looked up the words for the Carrot Song.
They are as follows:
My Girl
Do you miss me? It's carrot!
Do you love me? It's carrot!
I love you. You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! Carrot!
Do you tink of me? It's carrot.
Do you love me? It's carrot.
I love you, You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! Carrot!
Don't ever change. It's carrot.
Forever and ever. It's carrot.
I love you, I love you.
Even though at times you feel irritable.
Even though at times it's difficult.
Always think of me, who'll always
be smiling by your side.
Even though at times you feel sad.
Even though at times it's lonely.
Always think of me, who'll always be with you.
Do you miss me? It's carrot!
Do you love me? It's carrot!
I love you. You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! Carrot!
Do you tink of me? It's carrot.
Do you love me? It's carrot.
I love you, You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! Carrot!
Don't ever change. It's carrot.
Forever and ever. It's carrot.
I love you, I love you.
Even though at times you feel irritable.
Even though at times it's difficult.
Always think of me, who'll always
be smiling by your side.
Even though at times you feel sad.
Even though at times it's lonely.
Always think of me, who'll always be with you.
And there was I thinking it was about teaching children the benefits of healthy eating...

Date: 2007-06-14 02:34 am (UTC)It reminds me of finding out that the extremely lovely song called Sukiyaki was about strips of beef, or something. Unless of course the friend that told me that was LYING.
Though, still, with very little work, that could still be a Pigg song. Reggie really does love his carrots.

Yay!
Date: 2007-06-14 12:51 pm (UTC)Thank you so much - I'm rubbish at making icons, and really appreciate people who are good at it!

Date: 2007-06-14 02:19 pm (UTC)BTW I didn't actually get a chance to SEE the video until last night, as it turned out - hence the icons - but I would have thought it was just about carrots and for carrots and carrots carrots carrots too. Well, carrots have family, I guess.
Re: Yay!
Date: 2007-06-14 02:21 pm (UTC)I can't take too much credit for fabulousness this time - I just hovered over my keyboard with one finger on the Alt and the other on the Printscreen, trying to quick-capture the scenes I liked. Had to do it a few times. Then I just cropped!!
Now, when I get back...I _might_ be able to do an animated shot with my handy-dandy program. That is, unless by then you are thoroughly sick of carrots talking about carrots (which I have decided this song is about, no human factor At All)

Date: 2007-06-14 07:23 pm (UTC)I think you're right - it's about carrots loving carrots - and we should cast off our human-centric perpective and see this love as the beautiful thing it is! Theirloveissocarrot!
Re: Yay!
Date: 2007-06-17 03:21 am (UTC)Oh, that's a slogan if I ever saw one! I'll have to get working on the animation factor and have that flash at subliminal intervals.
And you're sweet - I consider myself such a novice at iconage, so that means a lot.
I have figured out how to make an icon move! I didn't know for the longest time, then I got a program, and what it is, is _linking_ static pictures together! Like a flipbook, only electronic.
Of course you do need a program. Fortunately there are freebies out there.

Date: 2007-06-18 10:35 am (UTC)But how do I save them in a way that allows them to continue to move? When I try to save the picture it just appears as a still image...
*is clueless*

Date: 2007-06-18 01:44 pm (UTC)But that's bizarre - usually if you right-click and Save, it should be just fine; I assume it would save as a .gif automatically. I think - I think it should be okay, though; it may look like a static image because you don't have the kind of photo software that lets it twirl, or you can open it in a web brower page using File / Open, just to make sure.
If you've loaded it as an icon anyway and it still won't twirl, well - I'll have to see what to do about that! And I can't get to it because they're hosted on photobucket and I can't even _see_ them here, thanks to work's devious powers. *sigh*
