“Feel Inside (And Stuff Like That)”–Flight of the Conchords New Charity Video

(reprinted from Chart Attack)

If you’re still cursing Flight Of The Conchords for ending their hilarious HBO show and keeping their stupid integrity intact, here’s some relief. The duo have briefly reformed to write “Feel Inside (And Stuff Like That”), a benefit single for children’s charity Cure Kids. The clip starts as a lyric brain-storming session between the band and some New Zealand kids, who as it turns out, also say the Darndest Things, but in an accent, taking the Darndest levels to heretofore unseen heights. Words in hand, the band drops into a recording studio with a bunch of friends who are probably all celebrities of some kind, because that’s pretty much standard for this kind of thing. It’s funny, it’s charming as hell, and surprisingly catchy. Guess that’s why one of them has an Oscar.

Relevant Amount I Am Tempted by Various Fruits

Video of the Week: Stanley Jordan–Stairway to Heaven

I have no words to describe what this man can do. Nor am I musician enough to critique or compare what he does to other guitar greats. But I did sit back and enjoy the man’s God-given talent. Hope you do as well.

Elvis’ Underwear Auction: The King’s Stained Undies Hit the Block

Celebrity obsession has officially reached another level with the announcement that Elvis Presley’s dirty underwear will be auctioned off next month. As the BBC reports, the tighty whiteys were worn by Presley in 1977 to take away panty lines from his famous white jumpsuit.

Unwashed and rather soiled, estimates for what the briefs will go for have been around £10,000 or about $16,000 U.S. The undies will be auctioned at an Elvis Presley pop memorabilia sale Stockport, Greater Manchester.

The undies have been framed for display and come from the estate of Vernon Presley, Elvis’ father. Also for sale are some home videos and a well-annotated Bible that belonged to the “Hound Dog” singer.

For those of us stuck at home,the auction will be web-broadcasted by Omega Auctions’ website on Sept. 8. Presley died 25 years ago this month on Aug. 16, 1977.

Another “Call Me Maybe” Lip Sync

Did we need another cheeky lip sync of “Call Me Maybe”? Yeah, I think we did. This one is courtesy of some U.S. Army soldiers stationed in Kunar, Afghanistan.

They had me at “USA Back 2 Back World War Champions”

Video of the Week: Hugh Laurie–Mystery

The English know two things about Hugh Laurie that many Americans don’t: one, he’s a funny guy, and two: he’s a fair musician too.

Oh, and another great talent: the ability to sound so American. How he does that is yet another mystery.
