The Lonely Island do it again
One of the most consistently funny parts of Saturday Night Live these days are the Digital Shorts that feature music by The Lonely Island (aka Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone).
They’ve given us such instant classics as “Dick in a Box,” “Jizz in my Pants,” and “I’m on a Boat.”
This past weekend, they debuted the video for the song “Boombox” (featuring Julian Casablancas) which comes off their first album, Incredibad. It’s not as good as their best stuff, but it’s still pretty damn funny.
So have a look, and remember, kids, this is a cautionary tale:

Saturday Night Live is pretty hit or miss these days, but they seem to have some of their best successes when it comes to musical parodies; just look at Andy Samberg and The Lonely Island.
They struck gold again this past Saturday with their take on the “We Are The World” remake that was done to support Haiti.
Willie Nelson, David Crosby, and Josh Groban are my faves.
