    You betcha. From those brilliant, fantastic heroes Matt Stone and Trey Parker (whose babies I would have ASAP). 10/10

    I forgot this band existed until I heard this song on the radio yesterday. I used to really dig it, and amazingly I think it's still good today.

    It is wonderfully cheesy. I've always liked it.

    Now this is funny.
    That's one of my husband's ring tones. He's on call a lot, and he tries to pick something that will get his attention during that time so that he doesn't get in trouble at work. it is pretty funny - the first 10 or so times. I've probably heard "America....**** yeah" so many more times than a person ought to have to hear something like that.

    oh yeah, Juniper Wolf 3/10 on 311 just for the memories. reminds me of a time in my life when I was real unhappy. As far as the music goes, it's good, but it makes me feel bad because I remember stuff along with it. I hate when memories ruin good music

    (Incidentally, my 'not a bit funny' a couple of posts back was in response not to Hey Big Spender, but the previous thing. Pip got in there while I was typing.)


    Blink 182...

    Poppier than I expected, if a bit insubstantial (though the latter's not necessarily a corollary of the former). However, the video touched on my affection for Gothic architecture and Goth chicks. The inclusion of the raven might have been overegging it a tad. 5/10

    Here's a great animation for a great piece of music.....

    I like Disney, but sometimes animation that explores the ugly, the sexual, and the plain old weird can be interesting too:

    Downright creepy. I definitely got a shiver or five out of that which is impressive considering the simple art and music. I enjoyed the thoughts it produced so I'm going with a 6.

    Not really my cup of tea, krymsonkyng. At least it's not metal. 3/10

    A bit wet. I prefer No Rain which is..er..less wet. 4/10


    Here's one of my favourite modernish bands - with more than a little vaudeville about the music and a lot of entirely gratuitous burlesque in the video.

    More from The Fratellis - this one always reminds me of this.

    (...I ended up working in an office with the kid who played Leroy, the aspiring boxer. Needless to say he chortled with honest and renewed delight every time I managed to work into the conversation the bass cadence of "Let me have him, Joe...")

    Did you watch BBC4's evening of OGWT performances last night? I got quite misty-eyed.

    7/10 for the Specials.

    A song unique, I suspect, in its concern for kangaroos.
