"Barenaked ladies + Babylon Zoo"

Just dug out an old single of their and every track is gold.

I remember their 1 hit wonder too.

Question is: is/are the album/albums any good?



Also is the Babylon Zoo album much cop?

The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes is excellent.

What other one hit wonders can we think of? To work, people.

Eagle Eye Cherry - Save Tonight

Blue Man Group is that blue man on the advert.. isn't it?! The one which does that thing. Holeh, my brain's fried. What's it called? Where you pretend you're in a box touching the sides and stuff..

Edit: MIMING!

It was Effiel 65 that did Blue da ba dee. Katie just corrected me.

Actually, the same thing happens with me, and then I think of the Blue Man Group.

Thanks some strange memory you got there.

Spaceman was excellent when it came out. But I still get confused with Blue. "Spaceman, I always wanted you to know, I'm a.. blue dabadeedabadoo, etcetc"

Ah, Spaceman. Bit of a legendary song. Not for the right reasons, though. It's one of those songs which you go "Wow, Spaceman! Remember that?" if it's played at a house party or something. You get bored of it about two minutes later and search for any Oasis CDs that may be lying about.

.. except it was dirge.
the segments they put on the levi's ads would've worked nicely as a cheerful summer dance track and they'd have been ok, but they had to spoil it by jamming a nirvanas-coat-tails sniffer of a "song".

it didn't help that jas man was the most pretentios fool that ever lived.

God, that Babylon Zoo song was terrible, and I'm ashamed to say it was the first single I ever bought, on CD anyway. I, like many others, bought it on the strength of that Levis ad, assuming it was a Chemical Bros-lite dance remix type thing, then listened in horror as I found out it was a slow guitar dirge with some prancing ponce singing about how great he is. Brrr, awful.

Have you ever played an H?
