Try to get this one out of your head…

God I love annoying songs. And what a video!

Apart from the waving at the end, the guy on the left who can’t keep time with his hands is obviously something quite close to genius.

That chorus is gonna stay with you for a long, long time…

I like how the tall guy in the background sings with all the enthusiasm and lyrical knowledge of a footballer singing the national anthem.
4 WestEndWookie September 29, 2009 at 11:42 am: i suspect they were forced to make that as a punishment for stealing cars.
5 Hanna September 29, 2009 at 1:11 pm: This is teriffic. I forced myself to watch it to the end. I think it was worth it, for the waving at the end. This whole production looks like something u could have made at Disneyland, like that time I did the thing at Disneyland where, with the help of a trusty green screen, it looked like I was being interviewed on the jay leno show. And how bout the bell that comes across the screen! Sharp.
6 Louis Hudson September 29, 2009 at 1:46 pm: YES! We have to team these guys up with Gary’s Midi Paradise and bring an end to music as we know it! http://www.garyrog.50megs.com/
7 John September 29, 2009 at 1:48 pm: Are they singing ‘not very good’? They should be.
8 JP September 29, 2009 at 2:52 pm: I hate how this makes me sound insensitive to the plight of those less fortunate – but if you are going to shoot a video, is it too much to ask that you spring for some fresh clothes?
9 boggins September 29, 2009 at 3:01 pm: He needs to take waving lessons from Joe Cornish
10 Adam K September 29, 2009 at 3:36 pm: serbian bronski beat. I like the paternal nature of the tall one, arm around the rthymn-less one.
11 Al Loch September 29, 2009 at 5:11 pm: “There’s gonna be a borstal breakout…..”
12 Ash September 29, 2009 at 7:07 pm: as i’m writing this the video’s only half way through and i’m already singing along to the bit that goes ‘novvi novvi novvi novvi gog’ (or whatever it is).
13 Wowser September 29, 2009 at 7:16 pm: I was very scared, very scared – will they rob me? And then the song started, and my heart was warmed.
14 alice September 29, 2009 at 8:48 pm: I fancy the tall one.
15 Tom Daylight September 29, 2009 at 10:40 pm: You have a rather bad habit of finding incredibly annoying songs. Half of me wishes you’d give it up… and half of me can’t wait for the next one…
16 Bethie October 1, 2009 at 6:10 pm: The tall ones mine. I like his enthusiasm.
17 goofy October 1, 2009 at 7:43 pm: новый год = “new year” (I think)
18 Robert Popper October 2, 2009 at 6:30 am: Almost thought your message was spam, as about 10% of my comments I get to my site are in Russian. Luckily you got through. Phew!
19 Kitchen October 2, 2009 at 11:07 pm: They seem very at ease with each other.
20 jess October 6, 2009 at 8:38 am: I dont know how to say this, so I’m just gonna say it: why the (blonde) hair of those guys seem to be…greenish? I can’t stop wonder about it.

Since you have mention the guy in the left and the “can’t keep time with his hands” fact, I can’t stop looking at it!!

новый новый новый новый гоoooooooд!
новый новый новый новый гоoooooooд!

SING ALONG! XD
21 Andrea October 8, 2009 at 10:04 am: Well this website is my favourite revelation of the week! Well done sir.

And the waving at the end brought a tear to my eye….will I ever see them again?
