Wrong Hole – Over 3,000,000 Hits!
Wow. First off, let me just say thank all of you out there who have graced me with your comments and emails. It was over two years ago that my first viral video surpassed the 2 mil mark, and now it looks like Wrong Hole is going to win the prize for most online views. Between YouTube, Break, and FunnyOrDie, it’s now well on it’s way over 3 mil hits.
Special thanks to blogs like Today’s Big Thing, PureStyle Magazine’s blog, Spiked Humor, FastHack, Dave and Thomas Daily TimeKillers, The GoldenBoy Saga, GeorgeCarlinTV, Shoutback, and the many others who passed it along.
I didn’t realize that taking it up the bum could be such a universal source of comedy. I’ve received emails from Canada, the Netherlands, Germany, Phillippines, Russia, France, Poland, Turkey, Africa, the Middle East, Peru, and students from both West Point and the Coast Guard military academy here in the US. Some of my favorite excerpts I have posted below, as they were a little tough to decipher:
Rob (Netherlands): “you sounds so good, its almost magic, make a love song with a piano, and stuff!”
Kael (Location Unknown): “I shivered when I heard her. She has power. She remmembered me of Celine Dion.”
Stephan (Germany): “My simple question now is, if there are some recent pics of you for my desktop =) P.S.: You are not in the german Wikipedia”
Jim (Missouri): “I did notice one fault you have however as I browsed through your site, You’re a Liberal. Where’s your priorities?”
There were other messages, sweet and to the point, and others (more of the death threat type) from the Middle East and parts of America. But I won’t share those in an effort to keep this blog as positive as possible ;-)
Thanks for watching!

Taking it up the bum may be a universal source of comedy, but trust me, that video wouldn’t have hit 1,000,000 views without you in it. The lyrics are okay, but it’s not the first of the kind. What first makes this video stand out is a great musical arrangement. But perhaps even better than that, it was DJ Lubel’s brilliant idea (if it was his) to have you play the girl in the video.
I remember first time I watched the video. It was quite funny, I was enjoying the music and lyrics, but perhaps not more than just another video that would get a good rating from me, before I move on. But then BAM, your line came, and you blew me away. I couldn’t believe it. I played your part over and over again, because – as someone rightfully said – your voice sounded almost magical. The greatest female singers I can think of, none is as beautiful as you; the hottest actresses I can think of, none has such a beautiful voice. As I said in a comment on another page of your site, you’ve got real talent girl. Make the best out of it!
Greetings from Romania! (yep, people start loving you all over the world:))

Hi,Taryn
I come from China.
It’s a very wonderful video.
It seems that it’s very easy for you to sing in the high register.
Do you have any plan about publishing records?I really yearn for that!

It’s absolutely hilarious. My friend posted it on facebook and it’s even got the chinese captions. You and Lubel totally rocked.
Although I have to say, I was stunned by your voice. You should try a singing career on the side if you haven’t thought about it. I’m sure you’d get fans all over the world!
Wishing you all the best,
Dan

I have to say, I am not a huge “surfer”. And I have never watched American Idol so I had no idea who you were. But you have an amazing voice and the video is the funniest thing I have seen this year on here! Lubel and You are great in the video and again, Absolutely Histarical!!
Amazingly attractive also.

Appreciate you mentioning West Point. I know all of us here who’ve seen the video can’t stop watching it- absolutely hilarious. Your voice is superb and you look wonderful, if you don’t mind me saying so. Best of luck in your career and in all of your endeavors.

Hey Taryn,
In france, down here in Bordeaux, via Facebook this song as been striked a lot of time ! (the french subtitled version).. Even a friend of mine put it on the screen during a party, everybody loved it, and everyone had the same idea : “She has such a voice!”
Excellent clip, nice song, great humour, a very special girl…
Great recipe, isn’t it?

Any plans to do a song ? I can’t stop hearing to the video exactly at 3min13 sec, when you are singing
September 28, 2009 at 2:39 pm,
You sound sooooo amazing when you are singing. It’s a shame we only get to hear that singing voice for 5 seconds or so.
Could you maybe sing a full song and post that?

I have got to respect you fortitude and balls. You got guts, kid! Sincerely bigmikecraft
