I picked a bad year to give up meth and Red Bull for Lent

Woke up with this song in my head:

Question: is it just me, or does Bono look here a little bit too much like the chick singer for the Pretenders?

Which leads me to this part of Friday Stupid: the derivative music video genre, where yahoos with too much time on their hands reenact famous music videos:

I've always had a chuckle that Rush uses this song as his main theme: it's a bitching song with a great hook.

Here's the antidote:

Aiiiiiie, that's the good stuff.

FRIDAY PENANCE UPDATE: Obviously, I didn't give up being a snarky jackass for Lent this year, but I'm trying to make amends. So I just ordered this for Mrs. P. to make up for my impertinent posting of the Pope dressing like a cowboy:

3 This song was written by Bono about his mother after she died suddenly, but I always thought of it as applicable to Mary as well.

Also the Pretenders chick is Chrissy Hyndes, and yes the resemblence is there (sorry Chrissy).
