Okay, trying out something new here, a weekly post to brighten up the end of the week.
Ideally, each time, it’ll be something fast and fun and five—you know, because I love lists and alliteration. Videos, songs, comments, thoughts … with “five” being the only real theme.
I thought about “Monday OneDay” “TWOsday” “Three for Thursday” and “Wednesday Marmoset Madness,” but ultimately, this won out. (The marmoset madness isn’t off the table, by the way.)
So to start things off, here are:
The Friday Five: Fun Songs
Okay, these are far from “hits,” but they are some pretty amusing music videos.
1. Garfunkel & Oates: This Party Took a Turn for the Douche [NSFW language]
Warning: If you never heard of Riki “Garfunkel” Lindhome and Kate “Oates” Micucci, after watching this, not only will you fall in love with them, you will start seeking out all their other clever, snarky songs and videos like “Sex with Ducks,” “Pregnant Women are Smug” and of course, “Hand Job, Bland Job, I Don’t Understand Job.” [All NSFW language]
2. Storm Large: “8 Miles Wide” [Again, NSFW langauge]
How this song isn’t some sort of American anthem is beyond me.
3. Golf Boys: “Oh Oh Oh”
Simply, the greatest golf music video ever, mainly because it’s the only golf music video ever. Plus, all the proceeds from the song go to charity … and yes, that’s your 2012 Masters winner and major champion in the blue overalls with no shirt or shoes. Ooh lolly lolly!
4. The Lonely Island: “Dick in a Box” [All right, the NSFW language has been bleeped out in this one, so other than guys singing about dicks in boxes, it’s okay.]
Yeah, this still cracks me up, you know, because I’m juvenile.
And of course, the Greatest. Video. Ever!
5. The Hoff: “Hooked on a Feeling.”
Enjoy your Friday!
