Having just seen this for the first time, I'm surprised no one mentioned the obvious homages to the [[Pet Shop Boys]] in both song and video: the dead-on impression of [[Neil Tennent]]'s pseudo-rap style and rhymes (see "[[West End Girls]]", the fake British accents ("''I sawr a film ...''") and usage ("''I checked my phone and saw that you rang ...''") and the hairstyles and costumes (the glasses and scarves especially).

Looking around, I find that [[Flight of the Conchords]]' "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wqfcwgT0Ds Inner City Pressure]" (both song and video, and also a homage/parody to/of "West End Girls". But so far no one who makes a reliable source. Oh well. [[User:Daniel Case|Daniel Case]] ([[User talk:Daniel Case|talk]]) 05:33, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Where is Justin Timberlake? I didn't see him anywhere in the video. 70.169.152.43 (talk) 01:42, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He's the janitor when he say's "We're gonna need a cleanup on aisle 3", you can see him in the video at 1:11. --153.104.114.190 (talk) 04:13, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is this entry really necessary? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.10.97 (talkcontribs)

This writing is amazingly bad. -130.64.135.159 (talk) 06:28, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, this article is just as necessary as all of these articles. Pop culture is what it is. You are, of course, welcome to improve the writing to your heart's content. --Dynaflow babble 06:44, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to see some songwriting credits - I assume Timbaland was involved with Justin Timberlake at least on backup vocals. Anyone? 76.100.227.152 (talk) 16:36, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure it was entirely produced by The Lonely Island. They produce all their previous songs and videos, many of them parodies, which is why it sounds similar to other popular songs. And I'm pretty sure Justim Timberlake is just a visual cameo, unlike "Dick in a Box". If you listen closely, it sounds like Andy and Jorma doing their own backup vocals.70.94.56.187 (talk) 21:50, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pet Shop Boys homage?

Having just seen this for the first time, I'm surprised no one mentioned the obvious homages to the Pet Shop Boys in both song and video: the dead-on impression of Neil Tennant's pseudo-rap style and rhymes (see "West End Girls", the fake British accents ("I sawr a film ...") and usage ("Checked my phone and saw you rang ...") and the hairstyles and costumes (the glasses and scarves especially).

Looking around, I find that Flight of the Conchords' "Inner City Pressure" (both song and video, and also a homage/parody to/of "West End Girls". But so far no one who makes a reliable source. Oh well. Daniel Case (talk) 05:33, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
