"Thinking 'bout Somethin'" is a song written and performed by American pop/rock band Hanson. It is the first single from their fifth album, Shout It Out (2010). Lead vocals are provided by Taylor Hanson.[1]
The song was released on iTunes in the U.S. on April 20, 2010 as an exclusive single before the release of the album.
A music video was released to promote the single. The video was directed by Todd Edwards, co-founder of Blue Yonder Films, and filmed by Kelly Kerr a Tulsa local. It was released for public viewing on their Myspace channel on April 15, 2010. Weird Al Yankovic has a cameo appearance as the tambourine player.[2] The filming of the music video was not done using a regular video camera but instead using the Canon EOS 7D dSLR and Nikon AI lenses. This was done to mimic vintage filming.[3]
The video is also a pastiche of the "Shake a Tail Feather" number from the 1980 film The Blues Brothers.
Written by Isaac Hanson, Taylor Hanson and Zac Hanson.
