1 | * The video to "Girl All the Bad Guys Want", which features parodies of "It's Been Awhile" by {{Music/Staind}} and "Break Stuff" by Music/LimpBizkit. |
2 | ** At one point in the latter parody, three people dressed up as Corey Taylor, Joey Jordison and Shawn "Clown" Crahan from {{Music/Slipknot}} beat up Jaret, who's dressed up as Fred Durst from LB - this referencing how those two bands had a significant FandomRivalry at the time. |
3 | * A lot of their songs count, but special mention goes to their cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXbgSMT-0j4 London Bridge]] |
4 | -->'''Erick''': [''singing''] "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
5 | '''Jaret''': [''speaking''] I don't know.\ |
6 | '''Erick''': "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
7 | '''Jaret''': Erick, I don't know, I'm sorry.\ |
8 | '''Erick''': "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
9 | '''Jaret''': I have no earthly idea.\ |
10 | '''Erick''': "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
11 | '''Jaret''': Erick, I'm confused, seriously.\ |
12 | '''Erick''': "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
13 | '''Jaret''': ''Stop asking me that''!\ |
14 | '''Erick''': "HOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME?"\ |
15 | '''Jaret''': '''I DON'T KNOW'''! |
16 | * "Here's Your Freakin' Song" deserves special mention too. It's exactly as [[StylisticSuck deliberately unprofessional]] and [[AntiLoveSong break-up-y]] as it sounds. |
17 | * "I've got 99 biker friends... ''[[WifeBasherBasher that wanna kick your ass]]''!" |
18 | * The entire video for "1985" is pretty hilarious, but the ending takes the cake: the housewife finally joins the band and dances on the hood of their car a 'la Music/{{Whitesnake}} until they end the song... and she keeps going while the band just [[DistractedByTheSexy stare at her slack-jawed]] until her husband comes out. |
19 | -->'''Husband''': "Honey, what the heck're you doin'?" |
20 | -->(Housewife looks up and hastily covers herself as the band give her an awkward applause) |
21 | * "Ohio", which is about an ex who left the singer and moved to Ohio. The entire song, ostensibly begging the girl to come back, is pretty much just a [[IAmGreatSong bragging song]] about how great their home state of Texas is. |
22 | ** And then for a portion of the song, the style abruptly shifts from punk rock to country, with background noise of a Texas bar with hootin' and hollerin' patrons. |
23 | ** The final reason given for why she should come back to Texas? |
24 | ---> Besides, the UsefulNotes/MexicanFood sucks north of here anyway! |
25 | * "My Hometown", which is equal parts a heartfelt love note to friends and family who supported them early on, and a TakeThat diss track to everyone else, including the hometown itself, which [[SnubByOmission they go out of their way never to name.]][[note]]For the record, it’s Wichita Falls. However they made it big in the more music-friendly city of Denton, and claim the latter more than the former.[[/note]] |
26 | -->2, 3, this song goes out to my good friends\ |
27 | Especially the ones I had before the Grammy Nominations in 2003 |
28 | * "Running from your Dad", a blackly comedic riff on the BoyfriendBlockingDad which features an unfortunate boyfriend running away from his girlfriend's shovel-wielding father, before suffering a sudden loss of memory that is in no way related to being hit in the head with a shovel. The second verse makes it even funnier by revealing ''why'' the dad is running after him - namely, giving his daughter some rather explicit gifts for Christmas. |
29 | --> And I can still see your dad\ |
30 | running after me with a shovel in his hands\ |
