The Moldy Peaches Visit The View
Nice performance, but this was our favorite part:
Don't blame the production staff, you so know that was somehow Sherri's fault. (I mean, she thinks the world's flat! But in her defense, she was too busy feeding them kids to research the issue.)
Regardless, before les Peaches went down to the studio, Kimya wrote a post at her LiveJournal about the moment:
1. It is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and I get to meet Whoopi Goldberg. This is extremely significant to me. If you only know her from Sister Act I beg you to go get a copy of her old Broadway show. And I beg you to watch The Color Purple. These are things that helped shape me and changed how I absorb things and how I deal with sadness. And how I smile. Please keep this in mind as you watch me blubbering and trying not to cry on The View today. I LOVE HER. Immensely.Thanks for reminding us about the awesome effects of limoncellos, General.2. For those of you calling me hypocrite- The View doesn't have writers so it is not affected by the strike. I looked into it. I wouldn't have crosed that line. Not even for Whoopi. Not even if DeVito was the other guest instead of *gasp* Colin Powell.

It's the biggest soundtrack OF ALL TIME!
Score = 0
For tomorrow's exercise in televised incongruity: Rammstein on Charlie Rose.

Juno: endorsed by Oprah and The View. What's Martha Stewart's problem?

Y'know, I'm actually getting sick of the Moldy Peaches because of this damn movie.
Score = 0
It was somehow more pleasing to the eye to see it in the movie....
Score = 0
Really, wasn't the world a happier place when we all thought that these fucking twits were back working in laundromats or selling insurance instead of plunking out their nauseating nursery rhymes about kitty kats and Brooklyn haberdasheries? My greatest regret is, when I had to sit through their excruciating opening act a few years back, that I didn't burn the building to the ground. C'est la vie.
Score = 0
I was having a bit of an anti-Peaches backlash, but this video reminds me that they make me melt.
I'm glad they're playing together, even just for exposure and money. See Of Montreal rant.
Score = 0
they couldn't play the lucky charms song?? considering the view's morning timeslot that would be more fitting, no?
Score = 0
kimya dawson makes me cry. i love her so much.
Score = 0
Wait, that's what the Moldy Peaches look like? I always thought it (the name) was a new, more apropos moniker for Merrill Nisker's naughty bits.
Score = 0
Is it cool if i liked the zoom-in at the beginning of their performance on The View, more than the end of Juno?
That's a rhetorical question, because the end of Juno sucked.
Score = 0
This is so fucking bizarre.
Score = 0
oh god...umm, since i've never heard the moldy peaches or of kimya dawson or saw juno...at least they are playing a real guitar and singing for reals. but then i read her post about the writers strike and mlk day and...who the f are you again? why can't people just accept and enjoy the success and opportunities they are given?
Score = 0
where is the rest of the interview? you cut adam off! give us the rest!
Score = 0
Moldy Peaches backlash = whatever. I still think Kimya's one of the most honest, true people out there.
Score = 0
I grew up in Compton California and if Kimya Dawson can help find the decent person inside then F what you think if you don't like her.
Score = 0
i seriously hate the "real" version of this song... the turd coming out of the bottom of the guy's pants. are you f*cking kidding me?
Score = 0
Steve, Bob Dylan wrote that 'turd' line. Now what do you have to say? THOUGHT SO
Score = 0
yeah , why did you cut off Adam
Score = 0
Why can't we hear Adam's two cents? Message to all the haters: Moldy Peaches rule!
Score = 0
Just search for the rest of it on youtube, people. lol Jeez. It's out there.
I only heard of the Moldy Peaches through Juno, but I understand how things work in the music world. If the fans who discovered them, who got the first listen, witness the artists getting a wider audience via a certain talk show, then they're selling out in some way or this is in some part a bad thing.
Don't fret. I get that way too sometimes (for me, it was Feist). But seriously, they're getting money, they're getting more fans. They perform for FANS. Let's get over ourselves and continue to support the artists.
PS Haley is right. The Moldy Peaches on the View is pretty effing bizarre.
Score = 0
The Moldy Peaches on the view is indeed pretty bizarre. Weirder even when, like me, they come on the TV bolted to the front of your dentist chair while you wait for a cleaning. It was such a cultural disjuncture I almost had a panic attack. They looked so insanely out of place it was both terrifying and adorable.
Score = 0
These videos are strange and this band is strange and the only thing that makes me more uncomfortable than them singing it is Ellen Page and Michael Cera singing it hey run-on sentence how are you doing?
Score = 1
I thought how this bar I was at played the Juno soundtrack. I never thought that I would hear The Moldy Peaches at a bar. Juno has blown them out of the water. Then I never thought I would see at least 50 white people singing along to "Who's Got The Crack?" What a strange world it is.
Score = -1
I love Kimya, but Whoopi Goldberg is a fucking idiot. If she needs a female black role model why can't it be Maya Angelou or... uh... erm... Maya Angelou?
Score = 0
1.) With the opening and closing shots it looks like this was shot in the middle of space or something.
2.) Since when did Adam start singing like Johnny Cash?
3.) How is "blew a little load into the bottom of your pants" LESS offensive than "shook a little turd out of the bottom of your pants"?!?!
Score = 0
adam sings like that on all of his solo albums, and it sounds great normally...just doesn't fit with this song so much.
Score = 0
He's not trying to sound like Cash, His voice just lilts that way. That is the way Adam sings. I think Mr. Cash would approve.
Score = 0
shook a little TURD out of the bottom of your pants!
censoring it with 'load'?
Score = 0
She actually is a hypocrite b/c the View does have writers and they are on strike. She did cross the picket line.
