I don't know, whatever megahit "hey ya" was, step down a few notches to normal-hit "ms. jackson", and then it's at least a couple more down to non-hit "B.O.B." Not saying it was an unknown song, just as a lead single it fizzled and the album only got good sales traction after the second single (ms. jackson). That said I had assumed it was a hit, too, not promoting my boring twitter just adding an older tweet to agree-in-spirit with everyone else who thought it was a hit

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below is forever tied to the summer/fall of 2003 for me. That and the Neptune's Clones were the soundtracks for a lot of great parties.

To make yourself the most hated person in the block? That fucker Jesse once sang 4 hours down at the pub without a mic. He sang into a straw. And then the owner wonders why people are walking one more block to the next nearest pub that has banned karaoke and anything that makes a ruckus.

The other day I showed my younger cousin some ytmnd sites, explaining that before youtube this was the primary avenue for memes and I used to spend hours a day browsing it. I don't blame him for not finding Conan O'Brien x ipod commercial parody gifs to be hilarious. Part of me still wants a shirt though

It's true. A few years ago my boss wore a polo on a work trip and I instantly knew when he was in college based on his barbed wire tat on his bicep. Some things are as specifically dated as wearing a Limp Bizkit shirt or JNCO's. I think it'll be the same for those "solid black band" tats that seem to have hit popularity these past few years.

Sounds more like he was trying to do a British accent. Possibly it was an American doing the accent given the way he pronounces "fast".

The clip is from Australian TV (and his accent sounded Australian to me) so I assume the guy was Australian but yeah, he said "fast" (and some other words) with a short A sound like as though he was trying to pronounce them the way an American would. The overall effect was very odd.

I watched Walk Hard last weekend. I think it holds up the best of that era of Judd Apatow "comedy". A lot of that hasn't aged well - Knocked Up in particular is pretty awful. Pineapple Express is still pretty great too.

I had no memory of this song until it got to the chorus, and then it all came flooding back to me.

I remember my dad somehow got a blu-ray copy of this 2 months after it came out from some dudes selling it on the street. We watched it together as a family and we all thought it was mediocre, and maybe it would work better if we had seen Walk the Line.

I think Walk Hard reminds me alot of Hot Rod, in that it is much easier to watch 5 3-minute clips of the good stuff on Youtube than sit through the whole movie.

I remember getting an email from a friend who went off to teach English in Japan and he asked "Is that Ketchup song popular there?" and had no idea what he was talking about. Aparently its because the girls father was a popular entertainer called Tomato? What?

I learned about it from Fromage, MuchMusics round of up of the worst videos of the year hosted by Canadian TV personality Ed the Sock.
This cracks me up with the line "What does Aaron Carter want to be when he grows up? BLACK, based on his video"

I have never seen Dewy Cox, and I've tried. I have never seen it on a streaming service, the DVD is hidiously expensive in Canada because its import only and I think its a print on demand. I've not even found it :filez: But god drat everything I've heard about it makes it sound amazing, and it came out at a perfect time. All those music biopicks that were "And right now, The guy from Flock of Seagulls must thing about his entire life before going out on stage" and it parodies it perfectly.

Walk Hard is on Cineplex streaming for $4.99. I know this because I happily paid the $4.99 to watch it. I will send you the $4.99 to watch it.

You should watch it, it basically makes fun of every big name musician bio-pic. Walk the Line, Ray, The Doors, all of them.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
Watching it stoned and drunk was a ton of fun. I never thought I'd look back fondly on the 2000s, but here we are
