After posting the video, I'm now going to record my thoughts about it while watching it. Doesn't that sound like fun!

For reference, here's the video again:

2:12 - In the beginning... horrible word-art animation was abundant.
2:07 - Ooh, it's going places? They've figured out how to make large masses of land move! Cool!

1:59 - Look at those smiling faces. It's so cute it just makes you want to barf.

Wait, no, it doesn't.

1:53 - Your dreeeeeeeeeams come truuuuuuuuuue!
1:44 - Chorus time! Sing it with me!

HOT! HOT! HOT!

1:00 - Her hair is HOT HOT HOT!
0:56 - Why is everyone standing and cheering in what appears to be a cinema?

0:49 - A tradition of old men in suits, no doubt.
0:47 - What in the hell does "speaking the language of a brave new year," mean? That makes no sense, whatsoever! You can't speak the language of a year, nor can a year be brave!
0:43 - Right, because the world wasn't aware of a new day dawning, and needs mountain men from the 80's to tell them about it.
0:40 - MountAINeer! (high note, w00t!)

0:38 - Sweet zombie jesus, what the hell is happening here? Is she having a seizure? Are we sure she's OK?
0:36 - No, you don't have the best students and teachers in the country. That's just boastful.

0:33 - Loyal alumni, we've got a lot? (That girl looks like Kari Byron or whatever her name is from Mythbusters.)
0:30 - Proud as a peacock. Yeah.
0:25 - Scary mascot, football... this video has got everything.
0:23 - And to reinforce the point, flaming words! HOT HOT HOT!
0:21 - Now there's a guy going OOOOHHHHHHHHHHH in the background.
