Chocolate Rain

[Brycepops]

I'm sure you've all seen the original video, and maybe even heard the remix that 4chan made :3 This shit is made of coda and win. OverCoat, you need to come up with something like this :|

Haha, I hadn't seen the original one before. It's fuckin' retarded.

The remix though... is aweseome, I lol'd.

[JoeFu]

Awesome, I heard the original a few days ago, but this mix is amazing.

[anthonium]

I never thought this Chocolate Rain video would become so popular. I saw it two weeks ago I think and found it very weird. Who knew so many people would become fans of it. The chocolate rain guy kinda gives me the feeling he's going to explode all of a sudden as he is singing.

8bit remix FTW!

[Global-Trance]

Oh.

My.

Gawd.

XD

i'm not surprised at all. let's break it down:

1) weird looking kid
2) with no self perception *important!!*
3) makes an awful, poorly written song that sticks in your head
4) whose title is an obvious scatological reference
5) sung in a freakish baritone

this isn't terrible

that is, in fact, terrible.

[The Pezman]

I move for a transfer of Internet meme staying power from 4chan to us. We could do a much better job.

The original video for those who haven't seen it yet:

4chan got all over this video :DAside from the novelty of seeing a young Barak Obama, this isn't even remotely funny.

If this is considered hilarious, it's no wonder that people go to see those horribly unfunny Owen Wilson, Will Ferrel, Ben Stiller, and Adam Sandler movies.

He fucking stole my idea, that I thought of this morning

but I was going to cover "Internet Dream" instead.

[friendlyHunter]

Just saw them both right now, loved the remix =D

Ummmm, I don't think the original was supposed to be funny...? Nor, in fact, is funny.


that is, in fact, terrible.
You mean it is, in fact, terribly GOOD piano playing? Well, moderately good, at the very least. Are half the posts in this thread reeking in needlessly confusing sarcasm?


Here's a video that is, in fact, kind of funny:

Haha that song would be perfect for a remix. Has a very hypnotizing sound to it. It's actually pretty catchy and I kinda like it haha. Remix it!

Right, someone at the start of this thread broke rules #1 and #2.

Nothing that wasn't already done by people commenting on the video >.>

[I-n-j-i-n]

It started entirely from MySpace and Youtube, but recently, I think the 4chan invasion thing was urged on by Opie and Anthony. They featured him on national radio a few days ago and then it just exploded in views and exposure.

That guy is a pure act when interviewed by Opie and Anthony since he apparently speaks like a normal school kid otherwise, but that singing is sub-Sanjaya..

[JoeFu]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONpjOyzgnYY

That interview?

He doesn't sound like a school kid... He has a pretty deep voice.

[I-n-j-i-n]

That interview?

He doesn't sound like a school kid...

College school kid.

[JoeFu]

The dude does look kinda wierd though, he looks like a freaking 14 year old.

Anyways, all the chocolate rain remixes are pretty awesome, that lil jon one was amazing.

[Martin Penwald]

The 4chan remix is amazing. I've been listening to it ever since it was used as background music in /b/

[zircon]

He's a grad student? Wow.

[Dhsu]

Apparently I'm not the only one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gDGXI2ZjGE) who thought he sounded like James Earl Jones.

[Fritz the Cat]

Wow. It's just like a comedy except without the humor.

[Dhsu]

Welcome to 4chan.

[Fritz the Cat]

That must have taken him, what, 30 seconds or so?

[Dhsu]

Well, I don't think it was supposed to be anything fancy, just a proof of concept.

[I-n-j-i-n]

I actually thought it was a retarded James Earl Jones song when I first heard it.

[Dafydd]

That guy would make a perfect Simpsons character.

Why is he bobbing his head away from the mic sometimes? Looks retarded.

EDIT: Nevermind.

[friendlyHunter]

Why is he bobbing his head away from the mic sometimes?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!??!

Someone, please, someone tell him why.


[Edit]
I'm sure everyone's already seen this McDonalds commercial, but I'll post it here anyway:

[Dafydd]

And you're not telling me because...? Sorry for being retarded myself. Does it say somewhere else in the thread?

EDIT: Ok, I saw the parody. Why does he move away from the mic to not breathe in audiably? Breathing sounds could be edited out afterwards... most of the music I listen to have audiable breathing sounds anyway.

[Mouser X]

No, it says it somewhere in the video. Quite plainly, and is very hard to miss. Did you even watch the original video? And yes, this is why he finds it hard to believe that you didn't see it. Mouser X out.

[Dafydd]

Oh noes

I think I must have skipped that part, or opened up another window just when it came up, so I thought those subtitles were part of the parodies. lol

This whole thing is retarded enough to get me confused as to which is a parody and which is the original.

Just for clarification, he admitted on a few interviews that it's all an act.

But I still think someone has to be a bit mentally deranged to come up with it.

PS- Vanilla Snow........ so horrible.. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTQOpibv_OA)

[Dafydd]

Vanilla snow was actually fun.

[Darth GourryGN]

People, please.

The song has a serious message (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxJ1iX7LIJo&mode=related&search=).

[Blake]

That McDonalds parody is just too hilarious.
