Hokay, so here is de earf...DAM dat is a sweet earf

Hows ya?

So, occasionally in the digital world there are moments of brilliance that bob up and prove that creativity doesn't have to be claimed to be anything more than a moment of inspiration. It doesn't need to be advertisised with a song and dance, all it needs is to be be 'self fulfilling'. Sometimes the viral world does all the leg work for you and this creativity gets spread worldwide with just a few mouse clicks.

One of the best examples of this, at least in my experience, is a website called 'endofworld'. It's just a short, funny cartoon but as yet it's creator has not been found even with extensive searches. At the end of the video someone has placed a disclaimer to try and track down the master of this brilliance, so they can be congratulated. But nothing.

So I guess it's just one of those things that's on the web to just be enjoyed for no other reason than it's pretty damn hilarious. Keep an ear out for the beautiful voice over work from the unnamed creator.

Copycat from Ballarat?


Lady GaGa. She's lovely, she's attractive and she makes slightly annoying fizzy pop music. However, I want to know whether she's also a bit of a music thief, or a sufferer of coincidence.


I can't question her huge hits 'Just Dance' and 'Eh Eh', however with her latest offering 'Love Game' I became suspicious of her credibility.


Before I explain what I'm talking about I need you to be familiar with the incredibly odd but mind blowingly brilliant 'Mighty Boosh' television show. If you're not already familiar I urge you to watch it for your own sake anyways, however for the purpose of this exercise I only ask you to view this piece of brilliance from an episode entitled 'Old Gregg'.



I think you'll all agree quite humourous and intensely weird.


Right. So, Lady GaGa. Let's check out the filmclip for her new song 'Love Game'. Pay particular attention to the song after 50 seconds.



Now is it just me, or has Lady GaGa taken some 'inspiration' from the cerebral brilliance that is the Mighty Boosh, or is it all a coincidence? I'll let you decide and leave you with this. I think it's fair to say that whatever the case, the lines:
"Let's have some fun, this beat is sick, I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" from 'Love Game' have to be some of the best lyrics since Nickleback's:
"I want the hottie with the million dollar body."
Nice one Gaga.
