I couldn't watch the whole thing, but the look on his face when he's singing "Hey, hey, you, you, I don't like your boyfriend" is priceless. posted by owtytrof at 11:30 AM on March 10, 2009 [1 favorite]
It's amazing how the continuing permutations of Chris Carrabba's musical influence still make my blood boil. posted by carsonb at 11:54 AM on March 10, 2009
I liked it, especially around the 4:45 mark where he "covers" the awful "Leave Britney alone" video. posted by lodev at 11:58 AM on March 10, 2009
It's cute, and the guy's a really solid guitarist with a good voice. That said, eight minutes is a lot of medley to listen to when there's no real sizzle to most of the segues, nothing interesting going on visually, and no apparent thematic/narrative juice going on behind the song selection.
I may be kind of a goofy-medley snob. posted by cortex at 11:58 AM on March 10, 2009
I don't know. I guess he's talented, but I wanted to jam a turkey baster in his nose and squeeze the bulb. In an ironic way, of course. posted by Bernt Pancreas at 12:02 PM on March 10, 2009
Is it that he's playing that game where the last chord of the line he's playing is also the first chord of the next song?
I thought it was long too, but if that's what he's doing, it had to be a fun project... posted by ugf at 12:19 PM on March 10, 2009
cortex FTW. Dude could probably do something great, but, like, this really bland and really long and neither cohesive nor juxtaposition-y.
Yep, it's some guy playing a bunch of songs on a guitar. posted by Sys Rq at 12:20 PM on March 10, 2009
