The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Start the music!

I've never watched a single Wierd Al video, so it's best you just go to another question. ;)

Nope.  Next time I'm home (away from college) I'll listen to it though. ;)

*bangs head on desk*  The only song of his I know is Men in Black, and of course, that's only because of the film....

This isn't working out too well....we don't listen to the same stuff. :P:

I'll give you a hint. this song was also the name of one of his films, and the film in question was a huge bomb at the box office. Yes I did see the film, in fact I have it on video.

*drums claws*  I already said I didn't know it....I'm not a big movie person. ;)  If it bombed, then it's even less likely that I was going to see it.

Wild wild west. He only repeated the title of the song about 40 times in the song :P: Have you seen the Lord of The Rings Films arvens? who sings the Theme for the Fellowship of the Ring?

Yes, each of them only twice.  No soundtracks, nothing...I don't even have copies of the films...that's how much I didn't care for them, because they drag on waaay too long for my liking. >_>

Elton John, Norah Jones, and James Taylor are a few of the artists who worked with Charles. Norah's duet with Charles is up for a Grammy on Sunday.
