My favorite song of the day is by a band who I can only describe as funky folk.  Often they are portrayed as geeks trying to "make it" in a big, bad world that just doesn't understand the true sexiness they embody.  The following video is a new one for "all the ladies in the world" and I hope it hooks you onto their music as it has done me.  The song is a remix, too, found on their album and not the version done in their HBO television series.  I've become a little obsessed with these guys.  It's hard not to.  As you will soon see and hear when you check out the following:

Something Special

by Flight of the Conchords

*J: Ooohhh....ooooh....

J: Late night
B: Hard workin’ ladies
J: Erudite
B: Brainy ladies
J: Hermaphrodite
B: Lady-man-ladies
J: Oh you sexy hermaphrodite lady-man-ladies
With your sexy lady bits
And your sexy man bits too
Even you must be in to you ooo ooo
B+J: All the ladies in the world
I wanna get next to you
Show you some gratitude
By makin’ love to you it’s the least we can do...
B+J: If every soldier in the wo-orld
Put down his weapon and picked up a woman
What a peaceful world this world would be-eee...
B+J: Redheads not warheads
Blondes not bombs
We’re talkin’ about brunettes not fighter jets
J: Oooh Oooh it’s got to be Sweet 16’s not M-16’s
When will the governments realize it’s got to be funky sexy ladies?
B: I have a vision and all I can see
Is all of you with ‘a all of me
In a world of peace and harmony
Where every lady gets a little piece of Bret-y
J: I’ve been to Paris, Wellington and Amsterdam
And a wham-bam, Merci, Danke, thank ‘a you ma’m
I don’t care if you’re ugly or you’re skanky or you’re small
I just wanna do a little something special for y’all...
B + J:All the ladies, in the world, you deserve it, Girrrrrrl...

 

*(J is for Jemaine, B is for Bret)

Isn't it GREAT?  Oh, I'm so tempted to save up some $$$ to send you and Jenn copies of the series.  Jemaine and Bret "got it going on" for sure.  And this is just one of their songs.  All the rest are just as snappy lyrically.  I agree with you, those are some of the best lyrics ever written!  Here's the original video as it appears on the series:

Jonathan has downloaded most of the series and has been watching it in the evenings after Rowan goes to sleep. I typically have fallen asleep through it as by 10 pm if the tv is on and babies are sleeping, I crash.  We spent an hour last night going through the youtube videos. Frodo don't wear the ring was our favorite.

I love that "the magical bling bling"  too funny!  I'm glad you guys are getting exposed to them.  The comedy is kinda slow in some parts, but if you stick with it, the pay off is great.  Their album is also worth getting, too.  It's been filling my lonely hours with smiles!

I love the little rap at the end I don't rap about bitches and hoes I rap about witches and trolls.

Re: Something Special (For All the Ladies in the World)
I love the lyric: "yo, Frodo, I know you're only 3 foot four with your little asshole so close to the floor!"  Too funny.  Has me giggling for days.

I do love those two! I think I posted about them last summer... I can't remember and I'm feeling to lazy to look. Haha.

Re: Something Special (For All the Ladies in the World)
Yeah, I didn't have much exposure to them last year, so now I'm making up for it this year.  Finally a new season is in the works!  I can't wait.

Silly poor door to door mormon missionaries picked the wrong house to go to today.  I saw them down the street so I grabbed some props.  My "I'm sorry I missed church last week. I was out becoming a lesbian and practicing witchcraft" tshirt, and a big ole glass of iced tea.    They started with the "have you heard the word of our Heavenly Father" spiel and I followed up with "yep and I ain't giving up my iced tea, I'd give up everything else but not my tea. sorry" and closed the door.  Tea and coffee are no-no's - the word of wisdom or something like that is where it comes from.

I hate the door-to-door campaigns religious people go on.  It's so unnecessary and rude, worse than telemarketing for sure!
