While in the clinic waiting room the other week, I heard an old song on their radio which I then happily hummed to myself all the way home. Of course the Moondai Furkids team decided it was one of their berry favrit songs too (they are amassing a prodigious collection of berry favrit songs).
The ensuing singalong was interrupted by some brisk mooing, meowing, barking, growling, chirping etc regarding which version of the song was their berry berry favrit. Unable to come to any kind of harmonious decision, I offered to include both of their berry berry favrit versions. They were delighted by this solution! Thus we will be singing along to both the original version and the latest version of I’m a Believer or, as they like to call it: Ima Beleebaa.
Incidentally, don’t bother asking them “So who’s Ima?”
I did. They didn’t think it was funny.
I got the facepalm.
The monkees have been saving coins for the jukebox for just ages and ages and ages! (They tell me that grinding organs isn’t the money-spinner it used to be.) I wanted to include them in the illustrations but they jumped around danced so much all the pics of them were just blurrrrrs!
We’ll start with the original version. Ready? Let’s go!

The latest version of the song was recorded by Smash Mouth for the first Shrek movie.
Ready? Let’s go!
