OK, so a guy donating $35k to charity for the right to program Vh1 for an hour is funny. Choosing ’99 Red Ballons’ is funnier. The description of the song in the article? That is frickin GOLD.
"99 Luftballons" is a Cold-War era protest song that tells the story of 99 red balloons floating into the air, triggering an apocalypse when the military sends planes to intercept them.
