Now this is simply a CLASSIC (er, early part of the century) JAM and as you know has become part of the lexicon for something that is ill or just sick ("really good" for those who don't know). The impetuous for this week's song was as simple as this: on Saturday when we did our Top 5 Songs of the Week post we included A-Trak's "Say Woah." Kelly asked whether that was a cover of Black Rob's hit and I informed her that it was not. She seemed disappointed, but then at that point we had to hit up youtube and check out this jam. While searching for it on youtube, we came across the Star Wars Remix of the song that includes Chewbacca noises on the track. It is pretty odd yet funny at the same time. The song also made me remember how back when I was on the radio, I loved using the instrumental version of "Like Whoa" as background music.
Lastly, very special thanks to Paulius, CB, Mel, and Even Cleveland -- having the opportunity to hang out @ VTR was definitely Like Whoa!

Yes! This song brings back some fun early-club memories!
So awesome meeting you both last night! Let's definitely plan for a wine cave meet-up.
Hi, guys!
It was so great meeting you both - I'm sure we'll bump into you at the Beachland or the Grog one of these days.
Enjoy Neko!

Mel - La Cave sounds excellent :) Looking fwd to seeing you again soon*
