The new Oasis single is called "Lord, Don't Slow Me Down". To me, it sounds like a mashup between Oasis' "Lyla", David Bowie's "Jean Genie" and some Kings Of Leon "Molly's Chamber" thrown in there for good measure. As an Oasis fan for most of my life, I am not amused. Here's the newly released video from the as yet untitled seventh album due out in 2008:

In the year 2000...
Everyone's favourite time-wasting website BoingBoing.com has moved into a daily video format. I suppose Monscooch should follow suit but, alas, I have a face for radio, a voice for newspapers and writing ability eligible for a gold star in preschool.The first ever video (embedded below for your viewing pleasure) starts off very promising. The two hosts scare me a little and they also cover some things that are fairly old in internetland even though it starts off with a nod to Conan O'Brien's recent "In The Year 2000" sketch.
Here's the Boing Boing TV link to bookmark.

The Does-Nothing-o-Matic
Sorry, I can't type much right now. I'm building my own version of the contraption above as made by the guys at baynhamyters.com. It'll have lego, house of cards that explode, cat cannons and a light switch that goes on and off- like magic!
Liverpool Watch: Benayoun Versus Wigan
Well, what do you know- three full points. The match against Wigan could prove to be essential when Liverpool are fighting to beat Arsenal and newcomers Man Yoo to the top spot at the end of the season. I would bet, even money, on that.
Here are the highlights from the Reading versus Liverpool game in the Carling cup match from last Wednesday. That Freddy Torres, or whatever his name was, is alright I suppose but he's no Emile Heskey.

Lupe Fiasco: Dumb It Down (Curtis Jackson fans take note)
Queens Of The Stone Age: 3's & 7's (Is this new?)

Kanye West / New Dick In A Box: Viral Videos
It's Kanye West mocking himself on Saturday Night Live's premier from last night- "It got champagne in it!". Brilliant. Watch it now:
From the same SNL episode was a sketch called "Iran So Far". Together at last, Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Andy Samberg (from the brilliant short "Dick In A Box" and the not so brilliant film "Hot Rod") featuring Adam Levine. It has a nice cameo a few seconds from the end:
The melody is lifted from Aphex Twins: Avril 14th, which is nice. It's a much better choice of sampling than that will.i.am fool. He managed to "remix" Daft Punk since it's all the rage these days and he goes on make an accompanying video. Afterwards, he asks the robotic duo for permission to use the sample only for it to be refused. Check out the story and the awful video and song here on Stereogum.
Swedish hostess Eva Nazemson accidentally vomiting in the middle of the live-tv game show 'Nattliv' on national television. Check out a funny remix called "Make Me Puke" here but first, here's the original:
Paris Hilton gets her comeuppance on David Letterman's show. The man is much more ruthless than I would've been in that situation and I respect him for that. The full interview:
