    Is it going to be a Ho-Ho-Hung Christmas?

    I am only going to fire up my laptop tomorrow morning with the express purpose of coming here to revel in the final day of Mellowmas (and to giggle snarkily at Jason's displeasure)

    A bird takes flight with it's...

    Wingmas or Hungmas? Hungmas or Wingmas? Or maybe Maomas -- did Mao ever make a Mellowmas record, like, while leading the Cultural Revolution and all? All I know is I have to come up with a strategy for sneaking away from watching my family unwrap their lumps of coal (which were a pain to wrap, BTW -- next year, I'm going with Christmas bags) to fire up the PC and see what Jeff has up his sleeve. Or in his vest pocket. Did that vest have pockets, Jeff?

    Exceptional entry as always.

    The Mary Chapin Carpenter song would not play - something about an error loading the file. I normally would just wait for someone to fix it, but I need to cleanse my head after Smash Mouth. There is a joke in there somewhere but I am too dizzy to figure it out.

    It'll download, it just won't stream. The streaming player is a dick when it comes to commas, I don't know why.

    I can't wait for this Wing thing to end. It is my Christmas wish. I want it more than I want the Borat thing to end. And that's really saying something.

    I totally get why people hate Smash Mouth, but there are some songs on Astro Lounge besides "All Star" that I will defend to the ends of the earth.

    But not this. I can't defend this. Hated Buster's version, hate this version even more.

    Oh, and I can't wait to hear Wingmas.

    "He’s Bret Michaels, if Bret Michaels ate another person."

    Brilliant. Also, it should be noted that in this song, he sounds like he's trying to vomit that other person up.

    Stray Cats + Buster Poindexter - sense of humor

    After listening to this...um..."song", I can't believe it, but Steve Harwell's voice has deteriorated. Yes, it's actually gotten WORSE over the years. It's like he used to gargle with cinders and now he's onto stronger stuff like glass shards. <shudders violently>

    And Jeff, just how are you able to hear me sing along with the car radio?? (Hey now, you're a has-been, shut the fuck up, go 'way)

    Isn't Wing really just William Hung in drag?

    Thanks for the two "legit" songs in this post. They were both wonderful - seriously.

    WOW...... for people that hate someone this much you sure do know a lot about him and what's going on in the band. You must have a man crush... hahaha. You guys are just as bad as GIRLS.......

    Either that, or we know how to do a Wikipedia search.

    The Internet can be a pretty mysterious place if you're a total idiot, can't it?

    Was someone really going out of their way to defend Smashmouth Dude?

    Ye gods.
  • Oh the irony · 10 months ago
    What I think is funnier than anything is two idiots who can't get a show on the REAL radio that they have to resort to the internet (obviously because their show is sooo horrible and weak that they can't get their own deal) are talking shit about a band and their singer that millions of people have actually heard of and own their records. Oh the irony! Haha!

    You got us! If we had any talent, we'd be playing casinos on a triple bill with Marcy Playground and Dishwalla.

    Who knew Smash Mouth had so many impassioned fans?
