I love Flight of the Conchords! :D

For those of you that don't know, they're an awesome two man band from New Zealand who make really witty, but stupidly funny, songs. They have their own TV series about them trying to make it in music in which all their songs are incorporated into the story as well. It's just brilliant, go watch the first episode and you'll know what I mean :p

So who else loves these guys? What's your favourite song?

One of my absolute faves. Love the part with the copier.

Flight of the Concords is an amazing duo for lots and lots of reasons. Love 'em.

edit: Another one of my favorites. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwFPJ2AWrEU&feature=related)

I love that show =]

I'm particularly fond of the episode where a fruit stall guy was being racist towards them but in the end realised he was confusing New Zealanders with Australians.

Seeing him in that video with those big sad eyes and his goofy sweatshirt I just wanna give the guy a hug.

Even though I already posted that video. Homo.

I've never really liked it. It always seems like a poor rip off of the Mighty Boosh. Some of the songs are sniggerable, but the in between dialogue is pretty bland.

It's nothing like The Mighty Boosh.

And in-between dialogue is bland?! Pretty much anything involving Murray is hilarious.

Ouch!

I saw them live about a year ago. That was pretty awesome.

Yeah the Boosh is waaaay more sureal than this. I can see why you might think the dialogue is a bit off though, it's so much like banter that you either laugh or you don't.

But if you don't like the songs then you're weeeeiiirrrddddd.

'She's so hot she's makin' me sexist.' I laughed so hard when I heard this, one of my favourite songs.

Hippho-Popotamus sounds like it could be the scientific term for a Final Fantasy monster.
Rhymenoceros sounds like a huge black rapper with a microphone sticking out his forehead.
