Love Song to Google – Quit Playing Games With My Blog

With all the hoopla over Google’s latest PR update, I decided to dedicate a karaoke song to all those bloggers out there feeling the pain of seeing their PageRank reduced. You’ve heard of Backstreet Boys “Quit Playing Games With My Heart?” Well this is my personal rendition, “Quit Playing Games With My Blog!” Feel free to listen to the podcast of me singing the song, but I should warn you, I’m a really bad singer. Here are the lyrics:

Google…. Oh…..

When I load my site, I see
You’re not being true to me
I looked at my toolbar, and saw
You left me with PageRank of three
Sometimes I wish I could, turn back time
When a listing on Yahoo was free
Oh I wish I could, so bad, Google
Quit playing games with my blog!

Chorus:
My blog!
My blog!
With my… I should have known from the start!
My blog!
My blog!
With my blog!

I code my site, the way, to
Keep your bots coming back to me!
Everything I do, is for you
So what if I had a paid link or two
Sometimes I wish I could, turn back time
When there was no such thing as nofollow,
Ohh I wish I could, so bad, Google you better
Quit playing games with my blog!

Chorus

Quit playing games!

Google, Google!
The link love we had was so strong
Don’t penalize me forever!
Oh Google, Google!
My site is optimized so let’s
Stop this tonight!

Google…. Oh….
Quit Playing Games!
Na na na na na na
Na na na na Google
Na na na na na na

Sometimes I wish I could, turn back time
When Altavista was number one
Oh I wish I could, so bad, Google
Quit playing games with my blog!

Chorus

Quit playing games with my…
Na na na na na na
Na na na na Google
Na na na na na na
Quit playing games with my blog
With my blog
With my blog
With my blog!

You can see the original lyrics to the actual song here. Apologies to the Backstreet Boys for torpedoing their song. :clown:

It doesn’t seem to be going over very well. I think people are being warned now to stay away from my site. :blink:

Oh well, I’ll probably take this down soon, no need to leave such an embarrassment of a karaoke tune up if I’m not gonna get anything out of it. :tongue:
