Beenie Man - Dancehall Queen (featuring Chevelle Franklyn)[^]
I was out with some friends last weekend, playing snooker, pool and darts, and the club we were at played this song.
The song was a hit in the Netherlands and I just read it did better over here than it did anywhere else, but only after its second release in 1999 (first was 1997).
Being a young teen in 1999, I know this song, even had it on CD, I just hadn't heard it since 1999! 
Needless to say I played it a few more times this week.
Beenie Man was a celebrated reggae artist from Jamaica, and Chevelle Franklyn is Jamaican as well.
You won't hear reggae in this dance hit though 
Sound of the week!

I've posted dance before and I will do so again.
I don't believe in any gods so I can do so without fear of retribution

Good song, nice video, but I expected something a bit harder to counter balance, like my SOTW of two weeks ago[^]

That used to be my favorite song throughout most of college

No, the bug has lowered my IQ by a significant number of points. I'm only slightly above flat-earthers and Justin Bieber fans ATM.

Hopefully for not much longer - you've certainly had more than your share of Covid grief.

I get to do a test tomorrow - if that's clear I can at least leave the house.

It was still empty this morning, which is unusual.
So I killed Outlook and restarted it.
Oh man ... 157 emails to go through ... joy.

That's my normal morning.

I get between 250 and 300 every day. I do have three email accounts, Outlook, Gmail, and Network Solutions, so it adds up.
Happily, most are repeats from various job boards; yes, I am still looking for a job. I can delete them without having to open them up.
Lost in reality.

@sanderrossel has started telling us all about the benefits of dried grapes. It's all about raisin awareness.

That's a grape pun.

That reminds me, we need to develop a way to send electrical shocks to other people's keyboards.

Need to prune a few of these puns.

I prefer craisin awareness, but cranberry wine seems impotable.
