"Am I the only one that looked at this and thought 'Oh my God, David Spade is having a stroke?'"

I really hate him. And I don't know why.

Pastafarian said...

OK, this is a gravely serious subject, a bain of our existence, and nothing to make light of.

David Spade, I mean. Strokes, those are hilarious.

Dose of Sanity said...

Oh Althouse. You travel into uncharted waters from which few return. Youtube comments are not like the comments here.

Sprezzatura said...

Supposedly, this performance, in it's original context, was planned and purposeful.

Scott M said...

Hysterical. Love David Spade. Tolerate Radiohead. Honestly, as a former music geek, I have never understood why their albums are so critically acclaimed. I mean, they're good, no question, but damn...

PaulV said...

Elaine on Steinfeld? White men can't dance?

Wince said...

David Spade, not quite.

Ernest T. Bass, YES!

Methadras said...

Love Thom Yorke and this little performance cemented his non-serious side. It was lol worthy, but man, EAT A BURGER!!!

Peano said...

I've never heard of him till now, and with luck never shall again.

Ann Althouse said...

I like Radiohead. I've liked them since "Fake Plastic Trees."

"I really hate him."

Who?

KCFleming said...

I think David Spade was just having a complex migraine.

I want to marry Radiohead.
The video is hilarious.

Try the Scala & Kolacny Belgian girls choir version of Creep from the movie Social Netwrk. It just kills me.

KCFleming said...

Been waiting for Radiohead's new album.

I know Thom's a friggin' lefty, but wothtehell.

Anyway, their mutant offspring Muse are libertarians, so it's all cool.

Scott M said...

Did Muse ever commit to that? I heard it bandied about and certainly Muse was on the loudspeakers at the TP events here in STL, but I don't remember reading anything about them owning up to an ideology.

Toad Trend said...

Excessive burtation.

I like David Spade. If you hadn't mentioned him, I would not have made the 'connection'.

I have friends that are Radiohead fans, but they don't do anything for me. Not much has musically for quite some time. Including Beyonce'.

wv - etcha

Arah Alin ays: ou etcha!

"Scott M said...

"

Nah; they seem to be wise in playing their cards close to the vest, making me suspect they don't want to lose their friends, or their customers, which is fine.

Let's just say they seem Tea-friendly.

@Pogo

Thanks for the link to the Scala video. I remember it from the movie, but had not followed up on it.

David Spade is one of the few celebrities I envy.

KCFleming said...

@Triangle Man


I love their rendition of Smells Like Teen Spirit, too. This version shows them live in concert.

Haunting.

But I'm easily haunted.

Freeman Hunt said...

Radiohead reminds me of high school.

DaveW said...

Love those links Pogo, thanks.

NotClauswitz said...

Ok that's thirty seconds I won't get back.

bagoh20 said...

I love Teen Spirit, but I can't imagine a worse song for such a choir interpretation. The words make no sense under such control.

I think the Pomplamoose version of this song is better than the original...

Who is Pomplamoose, you say???

KCFleming said...

Absolutely true, sonicfrog.

I does dig me some Pomplamoose!

Known Unknown said...

Can't take the Pompaloose chick. She's Susannah Hoffs on steroids. Or crack. Or something.

KCFleming said...

"Susannah Hoffs on steroids"

Oh man, that's where I've seen that eye thingy before. Ha!

KCFleming said...

@bagoh20:

Tori Amos did the slow version a long time ago.

I've been a big Muse fan for a long time and when Beck started to pimp them, they took off amongst the TP crowd too. I don't think they've ever copped to being conservative/libertarian, but their lyrics are clearly in that vain, if not around the objectivist bent.

Big Mike said...

That's not what a person having a stroke looks like.

Who?

David Spade. I don't know what it is, but he annoys me like no other.

Wow, Pompaloose is cool. Thanks for that.
