The Invisible Blog

Post Page Rank

Thinking about how utterly pathetic and invisible my blog has been since its inception, I felt a certain connection to a boy band I was never a fan of -- yeah, 98 Degrees, baby! Although, I must say that this song, which I am about to use is a personal favorite back in the days.

The original lyrics are still there, with the *new* or rather *inspired* lyrics enclosed in very shy parentheses.

You may find this funny. You may find gospel truth in it. You may find it interesting, or pathetic or offensive. Whatever. I don't really care. This is my blog. I pay for webhosting, internet connection and electricity (okay, not really, it's actually my husband who does..but that's irrelevant..). I waste hours upon hours poring over content. The least I can get is the benefit of writing what I want. :) Indulge me on this, okay?

This is for all of the invisible blogs out there! One day, we will no longer be invisible...one day...

The Invisible Man (Blog)

You can hardly
wait to tell all your friends
How his kisses (his/her blog) taste sweet like wine (is so fine, and "fetch")
And how he (it) always
makes your heart skip a beat
Every time he (you visit the site) walks by
And if you're feeling down
He'll pick you up (You'll read that blog)
He'll hold you close
(You'll read all posts) (even)

when you're makin' love
He's (it's) everything
you've been dreaming of
Oh baby

I wish you'd look at me (my blog ) that way
Your beautiful eyes
lookin' (reading) deep into mine
Telling me more (leaving me more comments) than

any words could say
But you don't even know I'm alive (online)
Baby to you all I am
Is the invisible man (blog)

You probably spend
hours on the phone (that blog)
Talkin' ( reading) 'bout nothing at all
It doesn't matter
what the conversation
(topic or niche)
Just as long as he called (there are posts)
Lost in a love so real (blog so unreal)
And so (un)sincere
You wipe away (comment away at) each other's tears (posts)
Your face lights up
whenever he appears (there's a new comment/reply)

I see you all the time (online) baby
The way you look at him (browse his/her blog)
I wish it was me (my blog) sweetheart (reader/subscriber/visitor/lurker)
Boy I wish it was me (my blog)
But I guess I'll never be... (it'll never be my blog)

[Chorus]

@raavi :) that is so true..and i have seen and read many of those blogs..beautiful entries..insightful posts..not a single comment..i look forward to the time when these invisible blogs will have their time in the spotlight, even for just a short while..just to let them know that their opinions, their thoughts, their insights, their tips are all valued..maybe that’s wishful thinking..even so, i still want to believe that it’s possible.. :) thanks for the visit..and by the way, i think you’ve brought a whole lot of traffic to my blog today.. :) cheers raavi!

Nice one. It’s artistic that you modified the lyrics, and I like it.
