      He once said in an interview (because his daughter went on American Idol) that he could "carry a tune, but I don't have a voice people want to hear". It struck a chord with me then because I can absolutely carry a tune, not tone deaf, have rhythm, but my voice is not a good singing voice. I'd be a great backup singer lmao

    I loved this song so much mostly because of the fun time it was in my life when it came out and amazing video. It always makes me smile, now Jim Carrey who filled our 80s and then when my daughter came in the 90s we loved so many of his movies over and over. He filled with so many laughs on so many levels it seems. And his Letterman show cover of this song was pretty great, we loved his singing in the Cable Guy. What a perfect mix to make me smile today ❤
