BearSong Sunday: “Mudhill” By Samiam

I rarely post on Sundays, but I figure I change all that by forcing me to work with a theme.  Hence, the nonsensical “BearSong Sunday” was born.  And let me start things off with the underrated Samiam singing Mudhill.  Great song, even greater video, and a much greater-looking lead singer: Jeff Beebout.  I can’t seem to find their official website though they do have a MySpace page.  In their missing official site, each group member posted a unique biography of himself and, needless to say, Jeff’s bio was my favorite.  It was written in a style that I’ve been trying to emulate to this day.  Anyway, I only mentioned that because what’s going on in the video is very similar to what he had said on his bio: painfully and achingly sad with a touch of absurdist humor.

Jeff Beebout does not only possess an amazing voice, he also bears the bullgoon face that I tend to get attracted to.  He may not be large or even husky, but it doesn’t negate the fact that he’s oozing with manly sexiness.

Here’s another person who resembles Jeff Beebout: Steve Zandi.  Steve is a co-lip singer of Harry Laos in their rendition of Chicago’s Hard Habit To Break.  Harry Laos used to have a YouTube page that I subscribed to a few years ago but it’s been taken down.  Anyway, his friend Steve Zandi were in some of the videos and quite possibly the one main reason I subscribed to Harry’s page.  Anyway, as I have managed to save some of his videos, I uploaded one in DailyMotion and it appears to not have been deleted yet.

Now that you have seen Jeff Beeout and Steve Zandi, compare them to the chubby Mike Paterson and musclechub Garry Frank.  Regardless of weight, they are all blessed with such goonish good looks…
