I gotta admit, this hits the LOL reflex like a punch in the gut...

1. "2" - The Beatles

Goofus vs. Gallant (Drugs A. Money), Thursday, 23 October 2008 12:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Probably an excellent compilation though. With "Strawberry Fields Forever", "I Am The Walrus", "A Day In The Life", "Tomorrow Never Knows" and "I Should Have Known Better" among the highlights. :)

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 23 October 2008 12:56 (fifteen years ago) link

wow I like it way better than "1"...is Rain on it?

Goofus vs. Gallant (Drugs A. Money), Thursday, 23 October 2008 14:18 (fifteen years ago) link

3. Tiaa Cref - Dip It and Shake It

Ca-hoot na na na oh oh (HI DERE), Monday, 8 December 2008 20:14 (fifteen years ago) link

Ha, Dan, I screwed that one up: Tiaa Cref should clearly be instructing you to dip it, shake it, and then roll it over

nabisco, Monday, 8 December 2008 20:16 (fifteen years ago) link

2. Counting Crows "Tunnel of Sunshine (Theme for Shrek 9: Shrek Gets a Colonoscopy)"

this is quite apt

ilxor this could be a standout thread for you imo (ilxor), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:05 (thirteen years ago) link

02 Kim Kardashian featuring Chris Brown "Some Velvet Morning"

this is hitting a little too close

Indolence Mission (DJP), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:16 (thirteen years ago) link

maybe I could have worded that better

Indolence Mission (DJP), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:17 (thirteen years ago) link

"I need a movie soundtrack to revive my career, vol. I and II" Eliott Smith

;_;

Dr. (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:20 (thirteen years ago) link

5. Miley Cyrus - some Kabbalah-inspired bullshit

We're still on track for this one, right?

Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:26 (thirteen years ago) link

I'd guess so.

Dr. (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:26 (thirteen years ago) link

1. "IM4U 2nite 4eva" -- Animal Collective

If their trajectory gets any wetter this is going to be spot on

straightola, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:27 (thirteen years ago) link

If only someone had predicted Willow Smith 9 years ago.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:27 (thirteen years ago) link

5. Primal Scream - BombSkullExploderDemonSmackJunkiePUNKROXOR!

This may not be a Primal Scream single, but I'd put the chance of a new band naming themselves BombSkullExploderDemonSmackJunkiePUNKROXOR at about 80%.

Dr. (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:28 (thirteen years ago) link

"Candle In the Wind '12 (for Scary Spice)" - Sir Elton John

This is going to be so sad...

billstevejim, Thursday, 26 January 2012 08:37 (twelve years ago) link

should this be like how conan kept doing the "in the year 2000" segment after the year 2000?

billstevejim, Thursday, 26 January 2012 08:43 (twelve years ago) link

so glad this thread got bumped at the pertinent time

six months pass...

I finally noticed that it was 2012 and came to review this thread. So far as I can tell, the most accurate jokes were:

1. "Beyonce Knowles Jr." on a charting single
2. "Slipknot vs. Slipmatt," which is clearly a Skrillex remix
3. "I Smell Sex," which is clearly Rihanna's "S&M"
4. "Windows 2012 startup theme - Trent Reznor"
5. "Norah Jones ft. Timbaland"

Least accurate:

1. "We Won't Stop Trudging Out Tunes" -REM
2. "Devil Toothpaste Samhain Fireball Cheesecake Ass Doodle" - by an ever-more-experimental Wilco
3. "I need a movie soundtrack to revive my career, vol. I and II" Eliott Smith
4. Britney & Justin Timberlake - Still Lovin' You (Though the Nuclear Holocaust Wasn't Kind)
5. "Our Doggy-Style Love (Duet)" -- Toni Braxton and Nate Dogg, from Braxton's "Not too Old to Pump It Good."

ንፁህ አበበ (nabisco), Monday, 30 July 2012 20:02 (eleven years ago) link

fwiw, this one is still a distinct possibility, if not this year

1. "Master of Puppets" Metallica with The London Symphony orchestra, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Tenores de Bitti,
Master Musicians of Jajouka, and Earl the Janitor.

heated debate over derpy hooves (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 30 July 2012 20:07 (eleven years ago) link

waiting for a czar to fall (Neanderthal), Saturday, 11 February 2023 02:31 (one year ago) link

Well, if you add 10 years then “master of puppets” making it back on the charts was OTM
