My rhymes are bottomless…
Bret and Jermaine of Flight of the Conchords
Danny over at Speaker Speaker left a comment on the Labryinth post I put up asking if I’d seen the Flight of the Conchords’ song Bowie’s In Space. I haven’t heard that song but I have heard this one:
If you’ve yet to be welcomed into the world of New Zealand’s ‘fourth most popular digi-folk paradists’ then head over to youtube to watch some vids or get your paws on copies of the hilarious TV series. Brilliant.

Jello Aoife!
HBO stuff is the only thing I’d watch on the box: The Sopranos, The Wire, The Shield, & Deadwood while it lasted. All top stuff. Come to think of it, I have allthese series on dvd now so I don’t really watch the box!
Anyway, Business Time & Foux Da Fa Fa are my favs:

I love flight of the conchords. I still have plenty of unseen episodes to get through- you have just given me my inspiration for this evening’s viewing. Thanks

Hey Red – I actually haven’t seen all of them either, definitely have to get back into them. Glad to have inspired you. But in all honesty, it wasn’t me, it was Hiphopopotamus and Rhymenoceros really.

“Does the space cold make your nipples go pointy Bowie?”
Absolutely frickin’ genius. I kinda know Jemaine’s cousin. Odd, but true.

This one’s my favourite for lyrics
There’s just a little bit of dust in my eye
That.s from the path that you made when you said your goodbye
I’m not weeping because you won’t be here to hold my hand
For your information there’s an inflammation in my tear gland
I’m not upset because you left me this way
My eyes are just a little sweaty today
Oh and go and check out Eagle Vs Shark also starring Jemaine. Genius

John Cav – is Jermaine’s cousin funny too?
Luncheon – get it asap!
Evil Bob – brilliant; I love when Sally at the start says ‘I think what I really want is an Australian’.
