Furries and Gym Class Heroes

Not long ago I wrote a post about all the remakes of Jermaine Stewart's "We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off," and I mentioned the one by Gym Class Heroes that borrows the chorus from the original. At the time, it was the only one which didn't have a video.

A video has now been released, as the song is the band's latest single. The video is cool because it features furries dancing and singing. I like the furries. Pittsburgh just hosted what is apparently the world's biggest furry convention. Good times, I'm sure... though I was jealous that I was one of the few people who never saw any furries out and about town.

Back to the song - the most genius part is at the very end, when Fall out Boy singer and guest vocalist Patrick Stump says "Jerome!," biting a line from The Time's 1984 hit "Jungle Love." Obscure '80s lyrical references rock!
