House Rules – By Kane

 So you’re tired and beat
And you’ve worked all week
And you need a place you can let it  go
Where the girls go wild
And the boys play hard
And you need a little more than the radio
Here’s your open invitation
With just a couple regulations
Let me warn you son, only come to have fun
We don’t take kindly to serious
So leave your troubles at the door
Unless you want some in here
 
Welcome to my house, buckle up tight
Everybody sings and drinks, laughs & gets high
Country music, all little soul, it’s a rock 'n roll  rodeo
We don’t tolerate no sitting around
Everybody’s dancin’, groovin’ and getting on down
So before you come in here with some kind of attitude
You better read the house rules.

 Around eleven o’clock when the front door locks
And the boys start raising the bottle
Where the girls do the thing with the Mardis Gras beads
You know they’re gonna show if they got’em
No matter what your story, a good time is mandatory
Well rule number 7 says don’t touch the women
But they can grab whatever they want to
 
Welcome to my house ,buckle up tight
Everybody sings and drinks, laughs & gets high
Country music, all little soul, it’s a rock' n roll  rodeo
We don’t tolerate no sitting around
Everybody’s dancing,’ groovin’ and getting on down
So before you come in here with some kind of attitude
You better read the house rules.

 No such thing as last call
We pick’ em up when they fall
We share the same bathroom stall
Says the sign on the wall  -  123
 
Welcome to my house, buckle up tight
Everybody sings and drinks, laughs & gets high
Country music, all little soul, it’s a rock n roll  rodeo
We don’t tolerate no sitting around
Everybody’s dancin’, groovin’ and getting on down
So before you come in here with some kind of attitude
Boy, Before you come a walkin' in here with any kind of attitude
You better read the house rules.
You better read the house rules.

The Reel (recommendation /Review)

Why you should download this vid: This vid just made my morning. It centers around Lorne, or more accurately, Caritas with its "house rules" (no violence, etc.). I'm ordinarily not a lyrics person, but they came through loud and clear here--yay for Christian Kane's enunciation!--and the vidder uses their repetition to great effect in building the humorous effect, which is impressive given the use of events that were not humorous in the original. The cutting, too, is well-paced, adding to the light-hearted effect by juxtapositions (karaoke!) and deftly-hinted interactions (Lorne vs. Angel); and beat-whore that I am, I was charmed by the use of internal motion. Best of all, we have a clever shot of Lindsey with his guitar. But this makes the vid sound dry. It's not! I kept stifling giggles throughout. Go, view, have fun.

Buttmonkey Awards
 House Rules -  Loved lorne dancing at the beginning! I’m a huge Kane fan, and Caritas fits this song so well! Great short clip shots to the drum beat.  Loved the “Angel” during the break in the beat.  What a great fun vid. This was really good, and all the judges enjoyed if a lot.

DDA Theme Challenge 
 First off thank you so much for entering the first themed challenge for DDA...
Ha! I loved it! The song was just absolutely perfect for Caritas and the gang! Loved how well you matched the words and the scenes. The editing was just brilliant! I laughed and I cried because it made me miss the series. Bringing back all those wonderful memories and hahaa the Angel part with the girls was awesome. I can't tell you how much I loved this video, because I can go on and on if you let me, lol. I watched it like a hundred times! Brilliant work!!

Lady Manson Awards
 I have never seen a video based almost all on Lorne before, but I like this one because I really like his character.  The music fit in the video perfectly and the editing was great.   Awesome job
