Net Neutrality - WE are the Internet!

21:15.49 - Friday 4th August 2006   (Link to This Entry)

I've had the chorus from this bloody song going round my head ever since I was stupid enough to click a link in the B3ta newsletter. It's a protest site on the subject of Net Neutrality with the most awesome video ever. It features the Gem Sweater Woman, Tron Guy, Peter Pan, Subservient Chicken and the Chinese Back Street Boys as well as the Spong Monkeys and Rocking Kittens.

Now with Value Added Lyrics! (Leslie Hall) Wake up everybody, stop sleeping. They wanna charge more, big companies are creeping, Into our Internet... The Internet's in distress let's answer the S.O.S. (Chorus) I'm the Internet, you're the Internet, We're the Internet, now that's the Internet, I like the Internet, we love the Internet, and I can prove it. (Peter Pan) Some net fairy dust made me who I am, Living in an online Neverland. The web's my playground, no suits allowed. Internet celebrities, let's sing it proud. [Chorus x 2] (Tron Man) It's not my tights that cut off circulation, Big business wants to control the net nation. What you can see, how much you should pay. Tell me, is this the democratic way? [Chorus x 2] (Leslie Hall) Wake up everybody, stop sleeping They wanna charge more, big companies are creeping, into our internet... Internet's in distress let's answer the SOS. Keep it free and keep it open speak up or our world wide web will be broken [Chorus - Tron Man] [Chorus - All, repeat to fade.] And who the hell taught Leslie Hall to dance? That girl can move.
