Hmmm

I don't understand this. Although the 'snaaaaaake' bit makes me think of David Byrne for some reason. It's quite funny, I just don't understand it.

Anybody?


UPDATE: Oh, okay, it's the World of Warcraft cover of this, although I still don't understand.

This is one of those 'dancing hamster' net meme things I only come across two years after everyone else is totally bored of them, isn't it?


UPDATE 2: okay, I hate it now. However it did remind me, via the comments below, of the alpaca song, which fell off my ipod around 2003, and had been sorely missed.

I've got loads of work to do, by the way.

It was just one of those random cartoons that Weebl over at 'Weebls Stuff' did a couple of years ago.

Have a gander round the site (http://www.weebls-stuff.com) - it's from the people who brought you the Anchor Dairy cows off the ad...

I prefer Weebl and Bob (the cartoon with the funny wee egg critters) to the other cartoons.

"NO! NO BEES!!"

I don't know what that was but I began to feel like I was hallucinating after a while, very, very strange...
In fact I feel quite bewildered now.

I'm a bit disappointed the badgers no longer reside at www.badgerbadgerbadger.com
Strange how something you used to think was ace is suddenly the most annoying thing in the world.

Anyway, you might like this, James.

There was a football "badger" a while ago... they were all wearing football shirts and shouted "Goal!" rather than "Snake", so I'd imagine that one'll start doing the rounds again soon.

For pure surrealism, though, you still can't beat the llama song:

The internet is ace. I also have loads of work.

Nothing can ever beat the 'When Biscuits Go Wrong' song
http://www.rathergood.com/biscuits/

I really should try and get some work done.

Talking about the strange conjunction of songs and hamsters, have you ever heard, or do you remember-
"Cognocscenti -vs- Intelligensia", by the Cuban Boys?
Terribly annoying- but that was a function of its catchiness, and thus its success.
Whatever happened to the Cuban Boys?

Spinsterella said...

I don't understand it either.

And I've got lots of work to do.

And a big frightening document called a 'tax return' or something.

M! 'They're Taking the Hobbits To Isengard' is so funny! Though the cruel disemboweling of the soundtrack had me in tears - It was so bloody difficult to play at Orchestra, to an extent where my fingers bled - I SO wish we'd just left the pianist to jump on a keyboard and be let loose on the 'Accompaniment' button...

Sorry that's just left me baffled !

Rathergoods biscuit song is good, but I prefer the spong monkeys. Spent far too much time on a trip to paris singing "we like tha MOOOON" while waiting at pedestrian crossings.

Anyway, isn't it about time for a Toy Fu song/mashup/weird thing?

I have no work to do AND I understand it*. How much more smug can one feel?



*I am not at liberty to divulge my understandings however.

Badgers eat magic snakes & hallucinate shrooms.

As mentioned above: Spongmonkeys.

Who also appeared in three ads for Quizno's Subs on USTV a couple of years ago.

Weren't the Switch/Maestro penguins in a UK ad (with a walrus voiced by Lily Savage) also from the minds behind the spong monkeys?
