Flight of the Conchords!!!


After my last, very deep and slightly depressing blog, I am writing about one of my favourtie things- Flight of the Conchords! They are the funniest thing in the world! Let me introduce you to Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie.
Jemaines the one with the glasses. Bret is the other one. They are kiwis from Wellywood who are making it big in America right now. Their manager is Murray and their fan-base is Mel. Here is an orsum quote from their sight that is pretty much FOTC. "Flight of the Conchords have put up a website on the internet. A spokesman from the band (Bret) said it there was a five year delay launching the website online due to a 'disagreement'. Apparently there was debate over how many times letter 'W' should appear in the 'WWW' part of the web address. While Bret wanted four making the domain name wwww.conchords.co.nz Jemaine was vying for seven with wwwwwww.conchords.co.nz. It turns out that you're only allowed three anyway." he he he. I like the Flight of the Conchords. They make me laugh. And sing. Especially when I'm listening to their music. Like now. And a lot of my time coz I love them so much! So should everyone else. Coz they are orsum. Other people like them too. They have won some prizes.
The BBC radio series won the Bronze in the Comedy section of the Sony Radio Academy Award in 2006.[13]
On November 15, 2007, The Dominion Post awarded Clement and McKenzie with the 2007 Arts Wellys, and named them the 2007 Wellingtonians of the Year.[15]
Time magazine's James Poniewozik named it one of the Top 5 New TV Series of 2007, ranking it at #2.[16]
On February 10, 2008, The Distant Future won the Grammy for Best Comedy Album.[17]
Entertainment Weekly named Flight of the Conchords the seventh best show of 2007.
Oooh. Beat that. They rock. They sing funny songs and act in a funny tv series and even manage to do them both at the same time. They act like a naive, failing band from New Zealand, where no-one has ever heard of, lost in the middle of American hard-outness. They are hilarious. But I am sad when they aren't on. Like now. But I'm listening to their music now so it's all right. I think thats enough for now. Flight of the Conchord ROCK!!!!!!

When I grow up ...

I was just thinking about some thing Ben said a couple of weeks ago at Church. He said "And someday, Bayla will be Worship Leading...". This made me think, you know, someday, we will be the leaders. Someday we will make decisions. Someday, we will be adults. Ths is quite a scary thought. In ten years time, will I be like Huggies is now? Or Diana? Or In 15 years, will I be like Ben? I can't imagine ever being as mature and orsum and strong and everything like that as them, but the time will come when it will be ... up to me. All the cool people who run the evening service will be old crusty 10.30ers (lol), and It'll be us, the goofy youth running the evening service. I can't help wondering, will the service just be the same few people in youth group? Will we fail God? Will people miss out in hering about God because of our failings? Deep down I know God will look after us, that he wouldn't let that happen, but it's still a scary thought. How could we, the silly youth group, be tomorrows Bens, Huggies and Dianas? We're nothing like that. I want to be, but I know we just aren't. I can't picture a day when I'm up the front, preaching or worship leading, along with Cassie, Esther, and Susan, to a Church full with people we have brought. You know what I mean? It seems we would just be a giggling, self-consious mess. I just don't feel like we're made to do that, yet who else is there? Sigh. Us, the leaders of tomorrow? too much pressure. I don't know. We aren't Ben or Diana or Huggies, as much as I'd like to be. How can we do what they're doing as awesomely as they are?
