I'm sure FotC are doing NZ proud! Hmm maybe we have to warn people before we post season 2 spoilers since it hasn't been broadcast in some countries yet.

***Season 2 Song Spoiler Alert!***

I didn't realise how good the song Love Is A Weapon of Choice is until I watched it again on youtube! I liked the part at the beginning of the video when Bret challenges Jemaine to a duel and Murray's like 'Oh no' and then the part when Jemaine slaps Bret with a glove is great! I especially like these lyrics:

You conquered my body with your kissing
Your caresses are your ammunition
Every time you walk in through my door
You're extending this war metaphor
You leave me wounded lying on the floor
I think I've seen this floor before

Laughing
I swear if FotC brought out 'Fashion Is Danger' and 'Love Is A Weapon Of Choice' in the 80s as serious songs, they could actually be hits Laughing

As would Inner City Pressure. Bowie would've surely been a hit in the 70's too, just after Ziggy Stardust and the Spider's from Mars came out.

^Totally! They're just really talented guys Very Happy

So, I have a question for everyone. Quite generic: Bret or Jemaine?

Could be based on whatever criteria you want: e.g. who's funnier/ who's the better actor/ who's the better singer/ who's better looking etc Very Happy

Thanks for letting us know Very Happy

I've recently bought the DVD, so I just have to finish watching it! It's very funny Laughing Looking forward to the next series! The behind the scenes will hopefully be good.

Went to the Conchords concert in Chicago. They sang a great mix of their old and new songs.

Sugalumps was fantastic. This clip is my favorite. I was only 10 feet away from them when they concluded the song. Watch the video all the way to the end. (The guy on cello is their friend Nigel from the Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra).

^Really glad you had a great time Suzanne. *North American Tour spoilers* Yes I've been trying to keep up with how their tour is going. Their performances of 'Sugalumps' always crack me up. Their performances have gradually been getting raunchier haha! Love the way they open their concert with Too Many Dicks with the robot heads and cod pieces. I've also seen pics of them wearing really outlandish clothes for their finale in recent shows including Jemaine in spandex, it's hilarious Laughing

Great to know that you're enjoying the show. Yeah the doc is made my Bret's wife Hannah Clarke and it's pretty good. I watched the New Zealand version online a couple of months ago. For some reason the UK and US get an edited version of the programme because the NZ version is about 40 minutes long or something like that but I'm sure it will keep all the main highlights Very Happy
