Michael Joseph Jackson

Before I start this post, I just want to say ANY hate will not be tolerated and will be deleted.

Michael in the Bad era

Michael Jackson is known for being one of the best singers and dancers to have ever walked the Earth.

Don't believe me? Listen to any song. Watch any performance. He always tried to do his best in his performances. Sure toward the Bad era and forward up until his death, he started lip syncing, but he still tried his best dancing-wise.

And whether you believe he ever lip synced or not is up to you. My high school music teacher was a roadie (and got to play guitar for two nights) for the Bad tour and he explained that Michael lip synced.

But I don't think it's a bad thing for Michael to lip sync when he was dancing. I mean it's hard to do either and to do both, must be death.

I wanted to write this blog about Michael because I was a huge fan of Michael. I still am. I mean I have several books and DVDs. I bought his autobiography. I had a die-hard crush on him when I was in first grade. But then my older brother came and started telling me about the allegations of Michael "touching little boys". I was in first grade, but it still put me off.

Now fast forward to 6th grade. It was a few months before he died. I was sitting in my science class (which I hated) and my teacher put on the video for "They Don't Really Care About Us", the version they shot in Brazil, not the prison version. Why he played that in a science class, I will never understand. It probably made sense at the time, but that was almost seven year ago.

After watching that video, I started getting into Michael again and it was pretty awesome for a while. I got my younger brother into him with me. We had the Wii and it had internet on it, so we watched the videos on YouTube on the TV.

Then on the day of my older brother's 8th grade graduation, a friend of his texted him saying that Michael had died. None of us believed it, until my aunt asked one of my neighbors who said "Yeah. Died of a heart attack".

Now this was before I was the emotional mess I am today. So I didn't really feel anything. Just ehn. But I was still a fan of his. And I think his death made me more of a fan. I learned everything I could about him. Reading books, including his autobiography, and watching documentaries. I watched all of his music videos.

My little brother bought This is It on DVD. Personally, I think it would look better as part of my collection, but he bought it with his money, so I can't say anything.

If you were to call me Michael trash, you would be right. I know a lot about him. Too much sometimes. That is probably why I didn't have friends in high school.

I think my favorite album of his is Invincible. I don't know why, because that was the one album I kinda stayed away from when I was a die-hard fan.

But now it's my favorite album. And it has (I never knew before I listened to the album) my favorite Michael song which is "You Rock My World". The video is right below.

The video features Chris Tucker, and if you ever get the chance, watch some of his stand-up. I remember him talking about Michael and it was a funny story.

Also, besides Michael being a great singer and dancer, he makes beautiful music videos. Every single one of his videos is like a mini-movie. And then we have Moonwalker, the movie, and Ghost, the mini-movie. There is also Captain EO, which used to be on YouTube. I don't know if it's there anymore.

The man is amazing. Again, I will reiterate, that any hate will be deleted. I will not tolerate hate on my blog, not just about, but about anyone who I post about. I don't care how you feel about the person.

I was thinking of not just doing album reviews, but also music video reviews. So look forward for those in the near future.

I have a new laptop, so I will be posting more, but I also cracked my screen last night, so being that it was a touch screen it glitches a little bit sometimes because of the crack and the screen needed to be popped back in. Hopefully, I can get it fixed ASAP. The touch screen really does help.

So expect album reviews and music video reviews of Michael. And if you want to suggest some, just leave a comment and or email me at carterburton64@gmail.com.

Dallon James Weekes

He is so goddamn beautiful.

I should not obsess over Dallon because I have a rule about my obsessions. They cannot be married. Dallon is married to Breezy (which I ship wholeheartedly) but he's so pretty and he sings. And plays music and is adorable and I can't deal!

His children are adorable. His son, Knox, looks just like him.

I promise not to make this a long post.
But then again, I could probably write pages about this man.
We'll see what happens.

Dallon James Weekes.

Okay, so I've been a Panic at the Disco fan since 2012(ish) maybe before. But I was definitely a fan at my great uncle's funeral, when I was a freshman in high school. Because at every funeral I have gone to (which is unfortunately a lot) I always listen to Panic!. They have managed to take me away from my "problems". That is why I think it's safe to say that they are my favorite band. I never have to be in the mood to listen to them. If I'm ever in the mood to listen to music, and I don't know what to listen to, I just put Panic at the Disco on.

But anyway. Back on topic!

I remember being a fan when the band was just Spencer Smith and Brendon Urie. HOWEVER, apparently, Dallon was part of the band when I first became a fan. Whether he was a FULL TIME member or not, I couldn't tell you.

But I "discovered" him for myself three or four years ago. I was on Instagram (when am I ever not on Instagram) and someone posted a picture of him and Amelie, his daughter, and the caption was something like imagine Dallon picking his daughter up from kindergarten. And from that day forward I was curious to learn more about him.

I didn't learn much besides that he was a member of Panic at the Disco, but at least I was now aware of him.

As time progressed, I realized that the man is very attractive, but I left it at that, because I didn't know much about him.

Fast forward to New Years Eve, 2013. Welcoming 2014. I was watching a plethora of New Years celebrations on TV. Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years as always, but I was also watching something in Vegas, hosted by Mario Lopez and Panic! performed. Spencer wasn't playing drums, which really caught me off guard. At the time, I didn't know that he was in rehab (and that he would never return to the band). I think Dallon might have been performing with the band that night, but I don't remember.

Now fast forward to mid 2015. I became more aware of Dallon. Even though he's not a "real" member of Panic! now, I noticed him more in the videos.

Fast forward one more time to early 2016. I added him and his wife, Breezy on Snapchat and have unintentionally been falling more and more in love with him. Again, I respect Breezy and I respect their marriage and relationship, but I really do appreciate him being an attractive and amazing human being.

During my Spring Break, I discovered "Mean Ol Moon", a song that Dallon covered on his album TWOMINCVRS. And I became obsessed with the album and bought it. I have been listening to all three songs non-stop. Yes. There are only three songs on the album.

Album cover for TWOMINCVRS

A few days ago I discovered that Dallon (with the Brobecks and Brendon Urie) covered "Skid Row (Downtown)" from the musical, Little Shop of Horrors. The download is free and you can find it here.

I will forever shamelessly advertise Dallon, as long as he keeps making amazing music/covers.

Coincidentally, Little Shop, is one of my best friends' favorite musicals. We really want Dallon and Brendon to do a cover of "Suddenly Seymour" and I'll probably end this post with a letter to them asking to do "Suddenly Seymour". And I'll probably do a petition to get it done.

Also, if you have never watched the Little Shop of Horrors film with Rick Moranis, I HIGHLY recommend it.

So that is how I fell in love with Dallon Weekes.

Dear Dallon Weekes and Brendon Urie

My friend and I have heard your cover of "Skid Row (Downtown)" from Little Shop of Horrors and we really love it. We were wondering if you guys would be interested in doing "Suddenly Seymour". We tweeted you both, but since you have an immensely large following on Twitter, you probably did not see it. We suggest that Dallon sing Seymour's part and Brendon sings Audrey. But of course, if you do decide to do it, it is all completely your choice of arrangement. We really hope you do decide to cover the song.

Thank you for your time,
McCartha Montieth

Let's all pray that they see this.

PRAY FOR ME
PRAY FOR US
PRAY FOR THEM TO COVER "SUDDENLY SEYMOUR"

I'M BACK!!! Again

I have gotten a new laptop!!

Yay! So I can start posting on this again.

Also, I started a new blog here.

So go check that out, if you want. It's all just writing. Mostly fanfiction- actually all fanfiction. I don't think I'll be doing any original work.

How are you guys? I haven't been on in a LONG time.

I was thinking of coming back for several reasons.

1. There was some blogs I needed to do.
2. I couldn't just abandon McCartha's World.
3. I missed this blog.

I have a few tumblrs that you can check out. Links are on The Bedroom Ballads blog. I'm too lazy to post them here.

I APOLOGIZE FOR BREAKING MY PROMISE OF 2016!!!

I cannot post everyday. I cannot commit to anything for the life of me.

Let me catch you up on life since I last posted.

DALLON WEEKES

I have become such Dallon Weekes trash it's amazing that I can function without listening to him constantly.

And I'm not even talking about him in Panic at the Disco. I mean Panic! is my favorite band and everything, but I have bought TWOMINCVRS and I downloaded his cover of "Skid Row (Downtown)" from Little Shop of Horrors, which I am currently listening to on repeat.

God bless that man. I mean I'll do a post about him later. But CHRIST. Breezy is such a lucky woman to be married to him and to share kids with him.

So I will try to post on this blog again.

But let me reiterate, I am in college. I am a history major and a theater minor. I am a crew member for my theater's production. We are producing Hair, the musical. I'm excited so I'll probably write a post about the musical.

ALSO I have listened to the Hamilton soundtrack and I really want to see it.

There is a lot happening in my life.

Like I'm considering making a petition for Dallon Weekes to do a cover of "Suddenly Seymour" with Brendon Urie, because they both did such a great job on "Skid Row (Downtown)"

Yesterday, made eight years since Panic!'s second studio album, Pretty, Odd was released, so I might be doing a post on the album and a "commentary" on each song. And seeing how well that goes, I might do that with other albums/sountracks.

So yeah. You have ALL of that to look forward to and more.

Happy Spring!
"Springtime for Hitler in Germany!"
(It's from one of my favorite movies/musicals. Relax.)

Let Me Explain You a Thing

So I unfortunately cannot blog like I used to for a while.

My laptop has officially conked out in me. It will only allow me to watch Netflix.

I cannot open the internet browser.

So I have not been able to post and I feel shitty because I promised a blog every day.

SHIT HAPPENS

But every once in a while I'll blog from my phone, as I am doing now.

Until I get a new laptop, which won't be for a while.

Plus I'm in college. Not much time to blog.

But I do have a tumblr you should follow.

You can catch up on my fangirling.

When I do get a new laptop, I am planning on 2 blog posts.

One on Michael Jackson and the second on William Control or Wil Francis.

UNTIL THEN

BYE

Inpaine

The name's, Bond. James Bond.

I wish I was Bond, or at least knew him. But one can only dream.

BUT ANYWAY

This post is dedicated to one of my best friends, Inpaine.

Yes. I finally have friends, since I started college last fall.

But enough about me, this post is about him. Below is a link to one of his videos.

Blessings - Inpaine

Unfortunately, I cannot actually insert the video in the post, but click on the link.

He is a very good friend of mine and I really like his music. I mean I'm not a huge, rap fan. I only really like Inpaine and Eminem. And I liked Eminem before I met Inpaine.

Which is ironic (...coincidental?) because Eminem was a huge inspiration for him.

I'm eating Jelly Belly jelly beans as I type this so, I'm suffering.

But back to the subject.

Inpaine is from Harlem, New York. How do I know him? We go to school together.

Below is a link to his most recent video, which is personally, one of my favorite songs, not just of his, but of 2016 so far.

Hate Ballad (Problem) - Inpaine

Was I right? And if you're not a fan of rap- like at all- I am sorry, and you are entitled to your own opinions. EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE WRONG!

Kidding. You are entitled to your own opinions.

This post was short, compared to yesterday's, but I don't think you guys like long posts.

I am adding the links to Inpaine's Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube channel. Check him out.

@InpaineMusic Twitter

Inpaine Facebook

InpaineMusic YouTube Channel

This blog post has been a Public Service Annoucement brought to you be Inpaine.

Kidding. This was all McCartha's hard work. And by hard work, all I did was type about one of my best friends and promote his music.

LOVE YA BRO!

Brandon Rogers

First of all, let me apologize for not posting the last few days. On Monday, I got two wisdom teeth taken out and all I've been doing since then is watch Brandon Rogers videos....I am a bit obsessive at this moment. And that's why I'm dedicating this post to him.

And if Brandon ever sees this, if you don't want to read the whole post of me talking about you being amazing, feel free to scroll down to the end. :)

Brandon Rogers being a babe.

To start off the actual post, I would like to point out that Brandon Rogers is physically aesthetic.

Why did I want to write a blog post about another YouTuber?

Brandon Rogers is not just another YouTuber. His videos are not just vlogs. Don't get me wrong, I love Shane Dawson, Lisbug, and Dan&Phil (just to name a few). But Rogers' videos are pretty much short films.

His videos are comedic, and yes YouTube is full of comedians, but Rogers stands out.

I first discovered him when someone on Instagram posted a clip of Mad Tea Party. I don't remember what clip it was, but I remember laughing my ass off and finding the full video on YouTube and really liking it. I watched the Five Nights at Freddie's parody and the human centipede parody.

But I left it at that. I didn't really watch any other videos for a while. But I revisited the Mad Tea Party videos because I am a huge Alice in Wonderland fan and the Mad Hatter has to be my favorite character that Rogers has portrayed.

When he plays a character, he becomes the character. Of course it's still Brandon Rogers, but while you're watching the video he is the character completely.

Brandon Rogers is truly a gift to the world.

While the Mad Hatter is my favorite character of Rogers', I think the best character he portrays is Grandpa.

It's a hilarious character and it's what made Rogers go viral.

Rogers as his viral character, Grandpa, in Grandpa Hates Christmas

I remember seeing the vines that different people made of the "try me, bitch" scene and I knew it was Brandon Rogers, but for some reason I didn't look for the video, like I would normally do.

I didn't really get into Rogers until last week, because I was looking for a new YouTuber to get into and I hadn't seen all his videos, so I decided to give him a try.

I have literally laughed over his videos to the point of tears. And since the pain with my wisdom tooth started, before I got the surgery, I watched his videos and for those few minutes, I laughed until I cried and I forgot the pain that was my wisdom tooth growing horizontally.

And then after the surgery, I kept re-watching his videos because they were better than any pain meds that I was given.

Even as I'm typing this blog, I'm watching Theater Class again.

The fact that I have watched these videos multiple times and can still laugh, is amazing.

But I didn't just become a Brandon Rogers fan over his comedic videos. I think what really pulled me in was his darker videos. I am a huge Tim Burton/Johnny Depp fan.

The Tale of Wendylin Wayne, The Jabberwocky, and Wonka on Acid (which is included below), are probably my favorite videos.

Johnny Depp is my favorite actor in the Universe. I bring him up because he and Rogers are very similar, in that they become the characters they play.

Watch any of Rogers' character videos. The fact that you can separate him from the characters he plays is amazing. And I think that's why he sticks out to me.

And I still haven't figured out if it makes me an asshole when I laugh at his offensive jokes.

TO BRANDON

If you ever see this, I really do think you are amazing and talented. And even though I've been a fan for a short time, it have not regretted it.

Even though I don't have a life changing stories like some of your other fans, I have a very low tolerance for pain, so the fact that your videos helped me survive the oral surgery and you always cheer me up is actually a big thing to me.

Congratulations, on your 10 years on YouTube!

Notice me senpai, my Instagram is @drink_to_me and I have some fanart for you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH

So today's blog is quick.

Happy birthday to my dweeb of a little brother, Josh.

Happy birthday to anyone else.

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A GREAT JANUARY 2ND
