Made popular by “Saturday Night Live” Digital shorts gone viral, the Lonely Island (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone) released their sophomore album “Turtleneck and Chain” today, May 10.
Fueled by celeb guest starts and hilarious lyrics, this is what comedy songs of 2011 sound like. The boys skim the surface of re-creating classic hits like “Dick in a Box” that even your grandma could probably recite the words to (whether you want her to or not!) because of it’s popularity. The Lonely Island’s attempts are not lost on tracks like “I Just Had Sex” ft. Akon. More than 87 million YouTube viewers thank you for making that one. Other titles include “Shy Ronnie” (feat. Rihanna), and new single “Jack Sparrow” (aka, the greatest thing Michael Bolton has done in the last 10 years) reaching classic status via “SNL” Digital Shorts, reports Billboard.
