Hardly a day goes by without another Rugby World Cup Music Video pouring from the bowels of You Tube.
Amidst the RWC enthusiastic (the best praise I can issue) All Black supporter videos have appeared from bedrooms/studies around the country.
These supporter videos fall generally into three camps:
(a.) JUST NOT FUNNY: This particular pervading vein of comedy has always escaped me. I’m more a Monty Python, League of Gentlemen follower than say Benny Hill. I just don’t find the ubiquitous reworked corny-song to be interesting. To the contrary I find them cringe-worthy. If you have something to say satirically – then by all means go ahead – use music, but at least be original, mildly amusing.
(b.) JUST NOT GOOD: C for effort and D for innate talent.
(c.) MELODRAMATIC TWADDLE: It's a friggin' game of sport not a ballad about a dog with cancer.
If you are brave enough, check some of these ‘creations’ below (think: the Frankenstein version of the term creation)
Health Warning: Not to be viewed by anyone with a full stomach, on heart medication.
