The Emmys is, like, an awards show for television or something -- whatever, doesn't matter. What does matter is that Flight of the Conchords was nominated for an award, so FOTC creators and stars Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie were on hand at the show. During a red carpet interview, Bret confirmed to TV Guide that the group's musical musings are headed to Rock Band(watch the video interview past the break). Previously, the band's label, Sub Pop, announced plans to convert its "entire catalog" into playable tracks.
Bret claimed that a total of three songs would be added to the Rock Band Music Store, though neither he nor Jemaine would elaborate on which songs would be released. Hey guys, make it happen:
I just don't find these guys funny . The more people go on and on about how great something is I kind of build a resistance to it . Artic Monkeys , X-Factor , I-pods , Macs , Susan Boyle ( Oh wow an ugly person can sing ? shallow ) etc etc . I cant help it!
Yeah, either way you're letting other people form your opinions for you. A huge ton of people like watching TV, so maybe you should give that up. Or how about video games? Everyone round these parts hypes them all the time, so maybe they should get the ax too.
Thats what they call "being a tool," you either only like things because everyone else likes them or you only hate things being everyone else likes them. Form your own opinions about things instead of letting society make all your decisions for you.
I don't like them either. I think Murray and their #1 fan are funny, but the rest of the show, eh. And just think, I formed that opinion all by myself!
I'm the same way. The other day my wife and I were having steaks and I was like "how's the steak?" and she was like "delicious". I almost gagged. I had to give the rest to the dog. So I ate a wad of tin foil instead.
Wait, so the music from literally HUNDREDS of excellent (not to mention legitimate) bands were not selling points, but this fake-joke band from a comedy TV show is going to be what finally gets you to pick up Rock Band? Um, okay.
They're signed on to Sub Pop, who said they'd be releasing their entire catalog to the Rock Band network once that got up, so all of their music will be on it eventually anyway.
That said, "Business TIme", "Foux Da Fa Fa" and "Albi" are my picks. I'd be blown away if "Jenny" made it, since it's my favorite FoTC song, but I don't think it would translate well to Rock Band.
Ooh, next thing you know were in the bathroom brushing our teeth. That's all part of it. That's foreplay. Then you go sort out the recycling, that's not part of it but it's still very important. Then we're in the bedroom. You're wearing that ugly old baggy t-shirt from that team building exercise you did for your old work, and it's never looked better on you. Mmmhh, team building exercise not tonight! Oh you don't know what you're doing to me. I remove my jeans but trip over them 'cause I've still got my shoes on, but then I turn it into a sexy dance. Next thing you know I'm down to just my socks and you know when I'm down to just my socks what time it is. It's time for business. It's business time.
