- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -4/+94Headline should read "MrBabyman understands how to work Digg."
- Berkana, on 05/24/2008, -4/+69Where's Technoviking?
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -19/+65Why does MrBabyMan remind me of Hillary Clinton? Oh yeah, they both need to GTFO.
- atdakore, on 05/24/2008, -4/+44actually the first post had the references in the comments.
And they were more accurate. So this really is a bad dupe.
with blogspam on the side.
Waste of babymans time. - inactive, on 05/24/2008, -2/+38MBM posting a dupe?
Get outta here!...*cough* - KonstantinLevin, on 05/24/2008, -56/+92Not a Dupe RTFA: Check out the band's latest video above, Pork and Beans, and then below, find all of the viral videos referenced.
- tidu, on 05/24/2008, -2/+32Holy *****. 1 million views in one day?
- helooksmortal, on 05/24/2008, -1/+30i think valleywag got a couple of the vids wrong. i didn't see "planet unicorn" in the weezer vid, but i did see "charlie."
- pathy, on 05/24/2008, -0/+28The original Daft Hands wasn't Technologic.
- Brainbean, on 05/24/2008, -1/+27You left out the "Guy catches glasses with face" reference. I'm disappointed in you.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=-prfAENSh2k - rossiohead, on 05/24/2008, -12/+34To be fair, I think everybody on Digg can find the NumaNuma and Dramatic Hamster videos on YouTube without having to visit a blogspam submission that otherwise completely dupes a previous post:
http://digg.com/music/Weezers_New_Video_With_All_T ...
(as linked by JamesMatt below) - HawkeyeMatt, on 05/24/2008, -8/+30To be fair... this is a post about it providing links to all the videos referenced.
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -0/+20Technoviking was behind the scene, directing the whole video clip, simply by pointing his finger here and there.
- cerealjynx, on 05/24/2008, -0/+19Every time Afro Ninja whups some ass an angel gets it's wings.
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -2/+21Yes, they tracked down and hired all those 'internet people' (who are actually just ordinary folks whose identities are well known), and they *paid them* to be in their video, which was agreeable to the 'internet people', as you can imagine.
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -6/+25I like how Afro Ninja finally gets to prove to the world he can kick some ass. THIS VIDEO IS MADE OF EPIC WIN
- archivist, on 05/24/2008, -2/+21i was hoping it would end with a rick roll or rick astley directing the whole video... ; (
- endlessoul, on 05/24/2008, -5/+21More like waste of my time.
Screw MrBabyMan. - kastlip88, on 05/24/2008, -2/+18Come on MrBabyMan....
This was on the front page yesterday... - mojoface, on 05/24/2008, -1/+16And MrBabyMan knows how to work digg
- ericnorris1, on 05/24/2008, -0/+15I saw Charlie the unicorn in there, yet it wasnt referenced on the site...Take that internetz!
- daRoach, on 05/24/2008, -1/+16SIMPSONS DID IT!
- Philosomatika, on 05/24/2008, -1/+15thakyou very much
I was lucky that I logged onto myspace to see a weezer post saying the pork and beans video was posted on youtube at the time it had 233 views. I put it on digg shouted it to about 100 friends and hoped for the best. I got lucky and it got to the front page.
Now mrbaby is duping my story and people say he isnt in it for the fame. mmmmmmm.
Im not a big submitter and I only submit once in a blue moon something I really like and then this happens. - WhatIDigg, on 05/24/2008, -7/+21They forgot http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjA5faZF1A8
Funtwo's Canon is the FIRST thing they do. - mikbor, on 05/24/2008, -1/+13only mrbabyman can take a popular front page digg submission and then make it to the front page again a day later
- Abjure, on 05/24/2008, -9/+21Weezer is also harnessing the power of YouTube to write a new song, check it out: http://www.youtube.com/user/RiversCuomoAlone
It's really cool what Rivers Cuomo is doing, there really is loads of talent on YouTube waiting to be discovered and what hes doing is groundbreaking. - getbusylivin, on 05/24/2008, -2/+14FFS, I simply cannot stop watching this video over and over.
- KibibyteBrain, on 05/24/2008, -0/+11Weezer has always been smart with viral/unique marketing. The band got big by striking a deal of having their music video Buddy Holly bundled on the Windows 95 CD-ROM. And this was a time where few people associated multimedia beyond ancient computer games with PCs. So it was a genius move, especially against the standard paranoia which would hold that the song could be copied/would reduce sales/etc that we still see today but would have been the "common sense" of 1995.
- KingGorilla, on 05/24/2008, -0/+11it's betch, betch
- scoffey, on 05/24/2008, -0/+11rivers cuomo wakes up and ***** hits. its just his way.
- Mattc0m, on 05/24/2008, -2/+12They missed a few...
UFO Sighting (2:37)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=up5jmbSjWkw
Sneezing Padna (Look closely at 2:38)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzRH3iTQPrk
Ryan vs Dorkman (The Lightsaber effects... in particular 2:46)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NE5elL30w4
v2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NE5elL30w4
Charlie the Unicorn (2:57)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5im0Ssyyus - GarageBattle, on 05/24/2008, -1/+11the unicorns were the CHARLIE CANDY MOUNTAIN video, wrong reference.
also has no one else noticed reaction panda? - MoofTheStoof, on 05/24/2008, -6/+16Hell yeah they know what they're doing. I'm on the weezer email list, and when I watched this video, yesterday, it had just over 500 views. Now, a little over 24 hours later, it's at 1.1 million.
- Cam_86, on 05/24/2008, -5/+15Should be pointed out that the barenaked ladies did almost the exact same thing more then 1 year ago.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoFMRXlNJ6Y&
They didn't do it to the same scale though, which could be argued, is a better thing. Having the 'stars' film it themselves and use the raw, low res webcam footage makes it feel more authentic. - LoompaOompa, on 05/24/2008, -0/+10OK, where is star wars kid in that video, because I've seen like 5 different people say he's there, and I can't find him. I see Ryan vs Dorkman, and I think people may be confusing that with star wars kid. Can someone tell me the exact time he's there?
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -0/+9Star Wars Kid is not in the video, Ryan vs Dorkman is, they screwed up on that one.
- duffy89, on 05/24/2008, -1/+10MrBabyMan again what the hell
- OutlawSamurai, on 05/24/2008, -0/+8Well, almost all the videos. (Also, they have the wrong unicorn video.)
- helikopter, on 05/24/2008, -3/+11should be pointed out that the weezer one is easily 10x better. sorry dude, first doesn't mean best.
- Philosomatika, on 05/24/2008, -1/+9mrbabyman maybe popular and im a lone digg user but i submitted this before him:
http://digg.com/music/Weezers_New_Video_With_All_T ...
the 7k+ diggs you would of thought his story wouldnt get dugg up but hey. - Cam_86, on 05/24/2008, -0/+8No, they 'took' it from the barenaked ladies...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoFMRXlNJ6Y&
More then 1 year old. - packman86, on 05/24/2008, -2/+10This is a new low, even for mrbabyman!!
- anagoge, on 05/24/2008, -0/+71,234,676 views since yesterday.
Not bad at all. - Philosomatika, on 05/24/2008, -7/+14once again cheers for your support guys in outing him posting something I already posted.
talk about screwing the little guy - Betrayer, on 05/24/2008, -0/+7you Missed one... the first one "one man band" with the 4 windows of musicians... it also has the exact camera angle and mouse and the JERRYC CANNON guitar video...
- inactive, on 05/24/2008, -0/+7Then why do you even exist?
- MaddogMonty, on 05/24/2008, -0/+6They don't technically play it but the intro image of the band at the computer is identical to that in the video being referenced.
