Holy cow! I totally forgot about this show and Danger Mouse! Thanks for the refresher. I'd also like to see some You Can't Do That on Television clips.

Ahh, the good old days... *vintage

This and Danger Mouse were absolutely great.

He had better supporting roles in Danger Mouse.

Portishead (IPA: /pɔːtɪsˈhɛd/) is a trip hop band from Bristol, England, named after the small town of Portishead, 12 miles west of Bristol. With their use of live jazz samples and intentionally lo-fi sound, the band has been cited as influential by many modern musicians including underground producer Danger Mouse and videogame musician/producer Akira Yamaoka.

Good submission GhostCake (was in my own Sift list to post!)...I hope it does better than the last couple of MF DOOM vids: MF DOOM - All Caps & Danger Doom (Danger Mouse & MF Doom) - The Mask

Yeah Farhad - I posted Danger Mouse's Grey Album video (it's also linked above in my comment), this post was to show another collaboration he worked on. Oh, and correct what? I didn't have enough characters to put in Ghostface Killah's name into the title (just DangerDoom, as in MF Doom & Danger Mouse). I'm not sure if he has the most pseudo-names, but there's:
- MF Doom
- King Geedorah
- Viktor Vaughn
- Madvillain
- Dangerdoom
- plus a load more from a couple of decades of his past musical lives...

Most people will remember Danger Mouse from his awesome Grey Album where he mixed the Beatles White Album and the Jay Z Black Album. And Benjee, MF Doom doesn't have as many nicknames as Kool Keith, Dr DooM, Dr Octagon, Black Elvis.

Correct the titles, the 2nd rapper here is Ghostface Killah from Wu Tang Clan.

This is a video of the collaboration of MF Doom (a video of his work, here on VideoSift) and Danger Mouse (a video of his work, is here on VideoSift and also a list here) to form DangerDoom. There's also a really funny Public Service Announcement / infomercial parody video (to promote the album) on YouTube aswell. As Metal Faced Doom (who has more pseudo-names than anyone else I've ever known!) always performs in a mask, as a protest to the over-use of image & marketing in music; I guess that this song is about that fashion accessory he loves so much...

A short explanation/further example of Danger Mouse's (the guy behind Gnarls Barkley) project can be found in this video on YouTube. Essentially, it's an amazing 'mash-up' or remixing of The Beatles White Album and Jay-Z's Black Album (I know: he's a much better crack dealer than he is a person/musician/lyricist, but it's actually quite good). The Grey Album (Danger Mouse's entire project) was the most downloaded music ever on the internet (much to the dismay of the record companies attempting to make a profit from his hard work).

P.S. The video is worth a watch alone - no-where else can you find Ringo scratching vinyl or The Beatles break-dancing!

Gnarls Barkley is a musical collaboration between Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo. Their first album, St. Elsewhere, was released by Warner Music on April 24, 2006 in the UK and is set to be released May 9 in the US by Atlantic/Downtown Records.

"Crazy", their first single, has been played on BBC Radio 1 by Trevor Nelson, and Zane Lowe, since late 2005. It was made Record of the Week by Jo Whiley and Scott Mills and also Weekend Anthem by both Sara Cox and Spoony. The song gained some of its popularity due to the use of it on primetime Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe's television advert, and it was also made Record of the Week by Ken Bruce of BBC Radio 2. It was released as a single on April 3, 2006, preceded by its release as digital download and 12" vinyl single in March 2006. On 2 April, 2006, it became the first ever UK #1 based on download sales alone.[1]

In an interview with Observer Music Monthly, Danger Mouse denied that the band's name is a reference to basketball player Charles Barkley, saying "Nope. It's just like everything else on this record. There was no conscious decision about stuff."[2]

They are set to appear at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 30, 2006,[3] as well as at Lollapalooza 2006 in Chicago.

Also the album has a kick ass Violent Femmes cover of Beautiful Girl on it.
