Crazy frog rools!

Am I the only person in Britain to be genuinely amused by the crazy frog thing?

When I say genuinely, I'm talking in an ironic way.

Tomorrow I'm going to get the ringtone and put it on my mobile. It will play out every time someone calls ... but with a sense of irony there.

However ... how many people will realise I'm being ironic? People in my office plus friends and family might get it (they know I have a brain and hate commercial shite) but will people on buses and trains understand? Or will they label me a loser as soon as they hear the tone?

Well I've worked out a plan to combat the latter. I'll get the tone tomorrow and if the phone rings in a place full of people I don't know, I'm going to do a little dance to highlight the irony.

I just heard this for the first time today. Thank goodness it isn't as popular here in the U.S.

That old Radio One jingle is playing in my head: "Britain's number one" it's singing.

And it is. Britain's number one. Lots of outrage that it has kept Cold Play from the top spot but that's no bad thing, especially with this latest bedwetting indie effort.

I am astonished at just how mindless Crazy Frog is though ... mindless in the extreme. Bim bim bim bim. My little 3 year old nephew Oliver likes it though.

Come on Damon, you can't be serious that tune is mad and strange.I find it annoying but put up with it because I have to! You have a mad sense of humour mate but you're great!
