Sometimes, commercials bother me. Sometimes, they make my day.

I hope you all have seen this commercial, you know, the one where the frog eats the Dentyne ice, and then the princess kisses him blah blah blah. Well, if you haven't seen it here it is:



I'm sorry but I am in love with the song that plays in the background. Its called Stuttering by Ben's Brother. When I first saw the commercial I didn't really listen to the words.. just to the chorus. I was in a sappy mood and so I downloaded it. As I listened to it, it was more upbeat than I remembered and it didn't fit the "I hate that Valentine's Day is coming and I'm single for the 7th year running" mood I was in. I put it on my MP3 player and forgot about its existence until yesterday. I was on the bus (don't judge me. I'm broke) and was listening to my sappy songs playlist, when this song came on. I actually listened to the words this time. And I just started giggling. Everyone on the bus probably thought I was an idiot but I couldn't help it. I invite you to read the words below. My favorite parts are bolded. Ya its a little naughty but not really. I liked it. I just love how the lyrics are all stuttery the whole song.. I can just picture some guy singing this to a girl trying to convince her to kiss him.. oh man. I love it.



Stuttering by Ben's Brother:


It's been, it's been, it's been, it's been
su-su-such a long time, long time, long time
since anybody touched me, touched me, touched me
the way that you.. touch me

So if I stutter, stutter, stutter
and I feel so so so unsexy...
Maybe I'll just keep my mouth shut,
at least until you.. kiss me..


So kiss me again
Cause only you can stop this stut-stut-stut-stuttering
Kiss me again
And ease my su-su su-su su-su su-su-su- suffering


I know I know it's so it's sy-sy-symbolic of everything
Everything that's wrong with me and you
So tell me what I'm supposed to do

Oh it's been ages
since we've been really honest
but I can make ch-ch-ch-changes if you really want this

So kiss me again
Cause only you can stop this stut-stut-stut-stuttering
Kiss me again
And ease my su-su su-su su-su su-su-su- suffering

Kiss me again
Cause only you can stop this stut-stut-stut-stut-stuttering
Kiss me again
And ease my su-su su-su su-su su-su-su- suffering
Kiss me again
Cause only you can stop this stut-stut-stut-stut-stuttering
Kiss me again
And ease my su-su su-su su-su su-su-su- suffering

  1. I find myself singing this song a lot after I hear the commercial. P.S. I used to be deathly afraid of public transportation until Best Buddies in High School. We were forced to ride the bus with the handicapped people, and that was my first time ever riding the UTA. Well I loved it, I am a people watcher and I could ride buses all day and watch people...in the non creepy, just interested in humans kinda way. Not that I'm not a human...
