A Wonderful Experiment
Thought I’d try something different.

Wonderful – by Everclear
“Hey, ain’t life wonderful? Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful… Isn’t it wonderful now?”
I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it’s over when I open them
I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again
Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that make me wanna cry
Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday
Promises mean everything when you’re little
And the world’s so big
I just don’t understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now
Please don’t tell me everything is wonderful now
I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it’s all okay
I laugh aloud so my friends won’t know
When the bell rings I just don’t wanna go home
Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don’t believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday
Promises mean everything when you’re little
And the world is so big
I just don’t understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now
No
No, I don’t wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
No
No, I don’t wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
I don’t wanna hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don’t wanna hear you say
You both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don’t wanna meet your friends
And I don’t wanna start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don’t tell me everything is wonderful now…
I don’t wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

Right, so we’re back after a brief one-week hiatus due to an injury. I doubt I’ll get Dare 4 posted tomorrow, since I still have to film the remainder of it. The finale is already filmed, but needs to be put together.
As for the prizes, I’ll announce them all after the 5th dare is posted.
Who is today’s winner? Well, you’ll just have to watch and see. Heh.
By the way, sorry it’s not on Youtube. I won’t use them any more. Last video I tried to upload there, they stripped it of ALL THE AUDIO. So fuck ‘em.
For those having trouble, I recommend starting the video, then immediately hitting PAUSE to allow the video to buffer a while. Sorry. If there was a better video service, I’d use it.
If you STILL have trouble, go to the actual video page here:
Then scroll down to the bottom right and look for the grey Downloads bar, where you can download the video for yourself. Just know that it’s 62.5 MB and may take a while, depending on your Internet connection.
