Full Version: The Lonely Island
UKFF > Main > Off Topic
NEWM
I'm probably quite late to the party with these, but I discovered them while flicking the music channels last night. I loved Hot Rod so seeing a couple of the guys from that piqued my interest, and what I saw was absolutely hilarious. Funny in a balls out way, but also very, very well produced with great attention to detail of what they're parodying. I love this as much as I did the first time I ever heard Tenacious D.

Anyway, for those that haven't a clue what I'm on about, watch these and enjoy. Really really funny and I'll probably go out and buy the album on my dinner.

Is that... is that actually Natalie Portman?

This is too good.

I just nearly died laughing... Watch that We Like Sports vid and listen closely at around 00.53.

That is amazing! The Natalie Portman rap is the best thing I've seen today.

The best part of showing this to one of my mate's the other week? Him sharing the same name.

Awesometown is worth a watch, too. thumbs-up.gif

I'm On A Boat is the best, I think.

Also, Like A Boss: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NisCkxU544c&feature=fvst

OK, Natalie Portman is now the coolest person on the planet. Awesome. Awesome to the max.

Nice cameo by Dr. Spaceman too.

I'm the king of the world on a boat like Leo, If your on the shore then yor shore not me oh.

On a boat is pretty much my fav song of the year .

I love the album "incredibad" i got it about a month ago and its just full of amazing lyrics and great songs (who sid were whack is amazing).


Check out the film they did about 2 years ago called Hot Rod

A friend introduced me to these the other week and I spent all of my holidays revising and then listening to Lonly Island till the early hours. I still love them biggrin.gif

"Party over here!"

I'm obsessed with Jizz In My Pants. The Timberlake cameo tops it off.

Just clicked on the first one...

It's a complete & blatant rip off of "Flight Of The Conchords - Inner City Pressure".

Believe me when I say... I fucked a mermaid...

Awesome

Jizz in my pants has been a regular play for a few weeks. Gets funnier.

I dont think so. They are about different subjects and the Flight of the Conchords is a light Pet Shop boys parody, Lonely Island just contains the usual hip hop and auto-tune bullshit thats popular these days.
NEWM
There's obvious comparisons to FotC (it's comedy music), but I wouldn't say that's a ripoff. They're both separately ace. For levity...

Was at a gig Sunday and made them play Im on a Boat in between songs. It was a death metal/hardcore gig. Everybody in the room loved it and for the rest of the day everybody just kept shouting "Im on a motherfucking boat"

Good times
Nero1000
Loved them for a good six months now ever since the birth of Jizz In My Pants.
Got the album day of release and love every song on their.
Space Olympics is my favourite and the video to it is brilliant.

People have been going on about Lonely Island for ages but I tend to ignore these things because they're rarely ever as good as they're made out to be, however last night I was at a party and someone showed me the video to "On A Boat" and I honestly thought it was the best thing I'd seen in ages. We watched "Jizz In My Pants" and "Like A Boss" which were also funny but one of the more surprising songs was the aforementioned "Space Olympics" which despite being amusing lyrically is just a fantastic song.

So suprised no-one has mentioned this one before.

Also....Boombox. Such a good beat to it...
Vito
"Boombox" has a video now.

My current favourite is this one:

Threw it on the Ground
Vito
That's awesome.

I can't link anyone but check out the video for Cool Guys Don't Look at Explosions, its tremendous. I'm on a Boat and Jizz in My Pants have been favourites for months for my friends and I.
Jonny Vegas
You should all also check out ''Iran So Far Away'' feat. Adam Levine and ''The Chronicles Of Narnia Rap''

Yes it is, and HERE IT IS. thumbs-up.gif

The first time I saw it, I found myself trying to predict a few as it went on.

Both SNL digital shorts but same kind of thing, really funny.

Didn't see this one here.

That's up there with Jizz in my pants. Quality.

Love these guys, have their album in fact. I'm on a Boat is their best hit IMO.
Vito
Are you doing The Creep yet?
ajpiles
A rare miss from the lads.
El Nicko Loco
I thought that, not on the level of their previous stuff.

I thought that at first too.

My friend at work has been going on about these for ages. I didn't really like Jizz in My Pants, I'm on a Boat & I Just Had Sex. But I'm The Boss & the Natalie Portman Rap are fantastic.
Vito
Posting some pre-Lonely Island songs because nobody else has...

Ka-Blamo

Stork Patrol
Vito
We're Back!

Love these guys. Obviously their big hits are great, but perhaps their most underrated stuff has to be the Shy Ronnie skits with Rihanna:

Shy Ronnie (original)

Ronnie & Clyde

Probably the coolest Michael Bolton has ever been, he steals the whole thing.

Absolutely class, love it.

Just got the new album 'Turtleneck & Chain' and it is absolutely fantastic, I love these guys.

I listened the new record last night and it's fantastic. I keep singing that bloody Jack Sparrow chorus everywhere. Even though I'm pretty sure they don't do gigs, they should tour here.
Chest Rockwell
Just seen the video for and heard that Jack Sparrow song for the first time. Fucking brilliant.
NEWM
Got to say, have tried and tried with the new album but just don't think a lot of it. The highs are great and mentioned elsewhere in the thread, but the first album is pretty much entirely made of winners.

Captain Jack Sparrow is still fried gold, mind.
Steve Justice
Following on from 'Dick in a Box' & 'Motherlover'...

3-Way (The Golden Rule)

All three of these are by far my favourites, each one funnier than the last.

Talkin' about Cesear.
Vito
Justin Timberlake is such a good sport.
