The Lonely Island

Today I have some music for you by one of the best parody/satire/hilarious groups ever. The Lonely Island has made it to the top because of their ridiculously funny songs. This group includes Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone. For those of you who don't know, these three guys were a huge part of SNL for the better part of a decade. These guys were the ones in charge of all the SNL Digital Shorts that we all love watching over and over again on YouTube. While Andy Samberg is the one who is physically featured more, the other two took a huge lead in writing the words and creating the actual songs. What I love about The Lonely Island is that they have been doing this since high school. They have been together for that long of a time and have turned something they did for fun, into something that we all love and appreciate and laugh at. I won't lie, The Lonely Island is definitely known for being pretty raunchy, but I think that tends to add even more humor to the issue they are trying to mock. The Lonely Island tends to take a lot of factors in mind when creating their music. They know that the audience's attention span is not going to be longer than 3 ish minutes, and use that to self deprecate. And the great thing is, while the audience is laughing at what is happening in each of these music videos, they are also made aware of how ridiculous some of the situations we find ourselves in, are. The Lonely Island is a group that I would love to see live just because of how funny they are! And because I find this to be the one and best comedic music group, I decided to give you guys a little taste of what they are all about. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
