The Official Coronavirus Handwashing Song Thread
« on: March 06, 2020, 12:28:19 PM »
So as most of you know, the best defense against the virus is thorough handwashing, a good vigorous 20 seconds at least. It's commonly out out to use the 'happy birthday to you' song to time it, but who wants to sing that shit when there's so much good stuff out there.

So post your 20 second plus song segments for us to time our handwashing with....

My first submission, Marillion - Sugarmice, the final lyrics "so if you want my address it's number one at the end of the bar, where I sit with the broken angels clutching at straws and nursing our scars, blame it on me, you can blame it on me, my sugarmice in the rain...." (I timed it, 22 seconds as the Fish sings)

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Then you whistle the synth solo
From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

Marillion - Now Wash Your Hands. The lyric portion runs about 30 seconds, which is perfect:

You give up hope
And you settle down
With your favorite soap
Now wash your hands
Now wash your hands
Now wash your hands

The unbroken spirit obscured and disquiet
Finds clearness this trial demands
And at the end of this day sighs an anxious relief
For the fortune lies still in his hands
If there's a pensive fear, a wasted year
A man must learn to cope
If his obsession's real
Suppression that he feels must turn to hope

25 seconds.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Well Bosk, you only need to wash your hands for 20 seconds, but 20 minutes works too.  By the way, how's your water bill?  :biggrin:

In Mexico a group of nurses created a song:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-rurKG3fJw

Here's the lyric in case you want to learn it:

Heeeeeeeeyyyyyy ahora les voy a enseñar, cuando lavarse las manos, sooolo 5 momentos, podrás una vida salvar.

Heeeeeeeeyyyyyy antes de tocar al paciente, en una tarea aseptica después de tener el contacto cooon fluido corporal.

Y como se lavan las manos? las manos se lavan así así así así así así así así así así así.

Muere Bactería Muere! Muere Bactería Muere!

Muere Bactería Muere! Muere Bactería Muere!

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey, después de tocar al paciente y __ de su entorno aún con el uso de guantes así garantizas calidad.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey, en 40, 60 segundos, debes de tus manos lavar, es el tiempo correcto y así una infexión evitarás

Y como se lavan las manos? las manos se lavan así así así así así así así así así así así.

Muere bacteria Muere! Muere bacteria Muere!

Muere bacteria Muere! Muere bacteria Muere!

Ahora tus manos están seguras!

Here's a list of songs Loudwire has complied that people can think about while washing hands.  It includes RATM's Killing in the Name, Disturbed's Down with the Sickness, and many others.
