If I have one regret in the last eight years of writing Pass it to Bulis, it鈥檚 that Harrison and I didn鈥檛 do more about the Sedins. Regrettably, our lone music video about the Sedins, a parody of Blackstreet鈥檚 鈥淣o Diggity鈥� entitled 鈥淪edinery,鈥� appears to have .
That just won鈥檛 do. With the Sedins retiring, they deserve a proper musical send-off, something that truly captures the depth of sadness and simultaneous joy that 麻豆传媒映画feels right now towards the Sedins. A musical masterpiece that pays tribute to their amazing play on the ice and inspiring character off the ice.聽
I couldn鈥檛 manage that, so I did a parody of R.E.M.鈥檚 鈥淟osing My Religion鈥� instead.
It is titled 鈥淟osing the Sedin Twins" and I hope you enjoy it or that it in some way captures some of the emotions you might be going through with the Sedins departing the NHL.
I borrowed some crying Canucks fans at the end from the classic . Remember that meme? That was a good one. Better times.
Here are the lyrics:
Losing the Sedin Twins
The ice looked bigger
Bigger when twenty-two and thirty-three
Got their passes through to
Create room on the ice
Daniel, the scoring touch
Henrik set it up
The city of Vancouver
This is Canucks fans
Losing the Sedin twins
Trying to say goodbye
And I don't know if I can do it
Some say they passed too much
They didn鈥檛 pass enough
Did Burke know who he was drafting?
When he said Daniel and Henrik Sedin
From the Swedish Elite League
Every winger
Every single linemate
Seemed to have a career season
When they lined up with you
Then Alexandre Burrows, oh
He came through in the clutch
Who knew he was enough?
Consider this
They鈥檙e the best twins in a century
Consider this
The twins made hockey history
I鈥檓 assailed by all of these memories
They鈥檙e sailing around
Now I've said too much
We thought you would play forever
We thought this day would never come
I think we thought you鈥檇 never retire
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream
Cycled in the corner
Then stepped into the spotlight
Wizardous Sedin twins
League tried to keep up with you
And you know they couldn鈥檛 do it
Back-to-back Art Ross wins
One each 鈥榗uz you鈥檙e twins
I know that you heard them chanting
I know that you heard them sing
The fans were saying "one more year"
But that is just a dream, cry, cry, cry, cry
That is just a dream, just a dream, just a dream
Dream
