Hot Pick: Mr G - New Clip
By James Wan
It was bound to happen wasn't it?
Every few years, the music
market is poisoned with a ridiculously successful novelty song. A few
years ago it was The Crazy Frog (which, amazingly, beat out Coldplay
for the number one spot on the UK singles charts) - and now, its a home
grown phenomenon:
Mr. G
Chris Lilley's creation first saw the light of day several years ago on the short lived Channel Seven series Big Bite. While the show didn't last long, Mr G and his adventures continued on during the (again shortlived) Hamish & Andy show.
However, it wasn't until the ratings smash Summer Heights High
did Mr. G enter the pop culture realm, where he is now considered as
one of the best alongside Con The Fruiterer, Uncle Aurther and Bargearse. But is an annoying novelty song taking it one step too far?
To
be honest, it's kind of difficult to get this one out of your head (as
it is with any novelty song - remember "Shutuppa Your Face"?) which is
both the blessing and a burden. Sure, it will make Lilley a bundle of
cash - but will it render his character somewhat unwanted at the end of
the whirlwind?
Will Lilley end up being the exact thing that he's fought against for so long: a marketable catchphrase?
Decide for yourself - because there is simply no escaping this one!
