Popularity rank 42 #186. Letting your taste be defined

December 19, 2008

BRETT: Just realize that between Free Credit Report.com and iPod ads, you now let your music taste be defined completely by random marketing executives.

GREG: Hey!

GREG: It's also defined by Grey's Anatomy soundtracks!

BRETT: You do not grasp the crux of my point.
GREG: No... I definitely don't grasp your crux.

December 17, 2008

BRETT: And I just hate the Free Credit Report.com singer. He's just too-
GREG: ERIC.
BRET: Huh?

GREG: The singer, his name is ERIC VIOLETTE. He's a 27-year-old Montreal-based actor, singer and songwriter.

BRET: WHATEVER. So I heard him in this interview, and-
GREG: OOO, probably his 11/21 appearance on Cleveland's Uncensored Net Noise podcast.

GREG: He's sort of low-energy in it, which is actually SOOOO Eric...
BRETT: YOUR BRAIN SHOULD NOT CONTAIN THIS INFORMATION!!

GREG: So you finally heard it.

BRETT: I did.
GREG: What'd you think?

BRETT: You know, it was... harmless, hooky pop.
GREG: Hey, so... are we talking wood nymphs or water nymphs?

Popularity rank 45 #146. No James Blunt in Maasailand

August 21, 2006

BRETT: That's why I sought you out. I wanna live far away from the Western world, far from anyone who's ever even heard of James Blunt.

OKUYU: We never hear of him. Or this song you speak of.
BRETT: Oh, thank God...

BRETT: What's... wait, that's the song! That's "You're Beautiful"!
OKUYU: That one of Akele's blasted ringtones. They waste of money.

BRETT: I'll... I'll be going then...
AKELE: You say my DS waste of money, too. Now you play all night!
OKUYU: Only Brain Age, Akele. And Nintendogs
