The Lonely Island (ft.Julian Casablancas) - Boombox [mp3]
this song is hilarious. I remember my joy when I first heard it, because I was so thrilled at just hearing the ol' chap sing again. his vocals are superb, too.
Julian sings:
Everything got outta control
The music was so entrancing
Everyone got out on the floor
It was a bunch of old white people dancing
...
Then everyone started to move
People rejoiced instead of financing
Your preconcieved notions were shattered
By the super old white people dancing
...
The music washed away all the hate
And society started advancing
Every demographic was represented
It was a rainbow coalition of dancing
Whoa!
Everyone was wearing fingerless gloves
Whoaaaaaoaaaaaoh!
I saw a spanish guy doing the Bartman
...
Everybody started having sex
The music was way too powerful
A bunch of old people fucking like rabbits
It was disgusting to say the least
Oh!
A boombox can change the world
You gotta know your limits with a boombox
This was a cautionary tale
A boombox is not a toy

I like how his voice is filtered like on Is this it and ROF...maybe he'll go back to it for the 4th album?!?
I felt the same exact way. Anything with Julian on vox is instant gold.
Wouldn't you kill to see a high quality video for this song...I know I would.
Brad, yeah, he even salvaged My Drive Thru
I love his voice all the time. ITI, RoF, FIoE, all the b-sides, covers, live things, everything. I love his voice so much. he mentioned that they were going for a 70's sound for the 4th album, and that's what ITI sounded like, so the 4th might sound more like their earlier work, but that's just my speculation
It would be better if they edited out Samberg's voice.
hahahhahah!! that's so funny, 'cause Jules is just the guest and Andy is the main guy but yeah his parts are far superior to Andy's.
"everybody started having sex" oh man him singing that is just too much
yeah, and its not exactly like is this it or room on fire, its different, more mature... i dont know but for some reason his voice just gives me chills like this. dont get me wrong i love his voice on its own; at this point ill take anything they record!!
Boiled goose... LOL
