In England the current number 1 single is a ringtone called The Crazy Frog vs Axel F. If you have not heard this I cannot describe how bad it is!

Anyway I'm interested...what do other people think of the frog? Annoying or novelty? Is it an international, er, 'phenomenon' or is just in the UK?

My personal opinion is......the Frog must die!! :mp5:

Not crazy enough. And frankly, I'm not sure if his being a frog is beyond doubt.

It hasn't reached the USA yet. Probably because we're armed to prevent just such a British invasion.

well i think this just about sums up my opinions on the cray frog:

I think the people who made this rubbish should be forced to listen to it (and watch the video) until they can't stand to hear it any more (for normal people one or two listenings should be enough).

He doesn't really look like he's suffering.

no

because the people who made this can't be blamed for the ringtone company ripping them off (the sound was originally created for some webpage called "the insanity test" but jamba/jamster stole it)

Teletubbies *shudder*...and what's that newer one that seems exactly the same, just stupider? Starts with a B...

Anyway, the radio stations here keep talking about this dumb song, but they won't play it. I think I'm glad.

He doesn't really look like he's suffering.
well he doesn't look like a frog either but apparently he is....

the voice of the frog was originally a swedish kid of 14 imitating th noise his friends moped made. that's the kind of genius we are dealing with here (no offence to sweden, which is a kick ass country)

*raised eyebrow* like you were with the Teletubbies?
LaLa's head is on a plaque hanging over my TV. Took it down with my uncle's .30-06.

Unfortunately all you need to do to see the video repeatedly is watch an advert break on British TV...I garantee you will see the damn Frog at least twice each advert break. :headbang:
I mean who the hell sees the advert and thinks 'hmm...i really must have a copy of this tune! i don't often get to hear it!'? A fucking idiot, that's who.

at the shop i work in they have Crazy Frog t-shirts, they are so damn lucky i'm not allowed to take scissors down to the shop floor

no

because the people who made this can't be blamed for the ringtone company ripping them off (the sound was originally created for some webpage called "the insanity test" but jamba/jamster stole it)

The insanity test was cool and funny, but as said above its Jamba/Jamster who stole it put a picture to it and force it down our throats ever advertising break. One time I saw the advert back to back 3 times, plus all the advetising methods used boarder rules laid down by OFcom (i know this due to revision for a media exam), as youngsters are very impressionable.

I am personally in the process of writing a petition asking the rules for selecting a number one record to be changed and thus stripping the Crazy Frog of its trophy.

Actually, it was created as an impression some guy did of his friends' mopeds to amuse them. It later got put on the internet in the form of the insanity test.

And I was talking about the "music" version on the TV.

I know. I'm English.

Indeed.

Crazy frog isnt just the standard tune....there are hundreds of remixes to drive us mental

It's been around in Aus for about six months, everyone's sick of the bloody thing.

Good job! I'll sign for sure...along with the rest of Britain (well at least the rest of Britain with an IQ higher than that of a glass of water)

OK and the rest of Australia as well by the sounds of it

Just to treat you all watch this and tell me what you think

It states that those credited with a number one should either have wrote the song themselves, had some input into the musical output or have gained permission of the author of the song to use it in order to write a number one.

Spare them please! You may cause all to turn into homocidal maniacs!

They were discussing that on the radio....and they kept playing that ringtone over and over and over. It made me want to commit suicide!!!...if you haven't figured it out by now, I find it very annoying :D

Is it not going a bit far to use the word 'wrote' in reference to the frog? It kind of implies at least a modicum of talent.

how would that stop the crazy frog? :confused:

Just keep watching the video ;) There server has nearly crashed

More if you watch the music channels. Where you are also exposed to the other "great new ringtones" on an equal basis. It's horrible.

Exposed it's forced tourture, they even show it on MTV2, all that good music spoilt!

how would that stop the crazy frog? :confused:

It would also have a sub-clause (Please get rid of the Crazy Frog song and Mr Blobby from the list of no 1s and never speak of them again.)

Here we go, a good dose of sweet justice for all of you!

http://www.petitiononline.com/cfrs/petition.html

whether or not this is the petition mentioned earlier i dont know, but the last time i checked almost 7000 people had signed it.

i would personally not think twice before aquiring a shotgun and blowing the bollocks off whoever stole the sound file.

i have a large scale plan to put jamster out of business by getting all their ringtones for free (which i can do, honest) and then somehow bankrupting them.

Thats why im holding a kitchen knife in my hand! ;)

A nuke up its arse maybe :D :D or even better a George W Bush but that might be too cruel for the frog but hey atleast the world would be safer place.

YES! though i would have thought anyone with the crazy frog ringtone would be instantly killed if the phone rang in public. well, get killed or die of embarrassment first

Dude, there are plenty of good ringtones. I've bought "Rock the Casbah" by the Clash and "American Idiot" by Green Day. I don't think I should be subject to involuntary youth in Asia for that.

My involuntary youth (who is in Asia) uses 'The Good The Bad & The Ugly' ringtone. Not exactly original, but not annoying either! well not that annoying...

Sorry about that i just wanted everyone to relise what we go throught

I have a horrible suspision there will always be gullible kids with the swank new mobile mummy bought them who wish to download trash like this.

I keep trying to have faith... but hope is fading...

BAD NEWS!!!!! BRACE UR SELF IN THE UK http://www.jamster.co.uk/storage/view/upload/logo/audio_multivideoringtone/MrChaos.mpg

Funny thing is Crazy Frog haven't just taken the idea, they've taken the original sound recording and they haven't changed it at all, same bloke. same sounds. Which leaves them wide open to a court case cos i bet they didn't get permission from the original author.
So if anyboy really hates the song enough, there is something you can do about it.

Look at these facts "According to Nielsen Media Research, Jamster ran 36,382 ad spots, beating the record holder McDonald's, which had 9,780 slots in comparison."

OK it's bad (it's worse than bad!)... but at least it's not singing in a pitch usually reserved for calling dogs (ie Sweetie The Goddamn Motherfucking Son Of A Bitch Chick)

At least he's not doing the Numa Numa dance :rolleyes: :p :D

well the guy who originally recorded it must have given permission cause they have him doing radio interviews and stuff, my sister heard one

Every to the nuclear shelters! Im Going Underground!

The Axel F tune has been rereleased every few years since Beverly Hills cop and always gets high in the charts.

The new Crazy Frog sound though is stolen. I appear to be the only one that knows this and i doubt the publishers asked permission to use the sample from the original author.

Why is it stolen? Because i am such an immensely huge nerd, i can remember most odd things that i've come across on the internet.
The 'rrring ding ding ding a bum ba bum..' actually comes from a Flash program that was floating around the net a couple of years ago. There was no one site, it was on many, but it was labelled as 'The Insanity Test' and displayed a picture of a Formula 1 car (Rubens Barrichello's Ferrari, for the super-nerds) and the 'rring ding..' sound effects.

Funny thing is they haven't just taken the idea, they've taken the original sound recording and they haven't changed it at all, same bloke. same sounds. Which leaves them wide open to a court case.

no...they have permission

Unless we rally together and get the adverts banned! As when Ofcom get a certain number of complaints they take the adverts of the air!

Its been tried. Ofcom can't do shit cos it's not offensive, people are just complaining cos it's on all the time and the frequency of advert showing is not in Ofcoms remit.

However, a bit of consumer pressure on the commercial channels that show the advert might just do the trick eh?

At least he's not doing the Numa Numa dance :rolleyes: :p :D

Don't give them ideas, they'll somehow think of a way!

But it may break rules for Children's Adverts as there are certain things Ads are not allowed to do and I swear it must break one of them!

oh, that songs already been in the chart

Dragostea din tae

I know but they'll re release with that guy doing the video to shift a few motre copies!

I wish it did, but I was reading the paper the other day and there was an article explaining why the bloody frog doesn't breach any Ofcom rules and therefore there's nothing that can be done :(

Ok im preparing a email to the tv companies any ideas appreciated

I'm wondering where Jamstar got all the advirtising money in the first place. I thought that much TV advirtising would threaten to take even a fairly large company out of the black. Jamstar seem to have appeared from nowhere.

I bet they are a front for the Illuminati :mad:

Hagbard Celine, where are you when we need you?!

Well they have earned £130mill from crazy frog and they have spent £3mill on advertising

From the title I thought this post was going to be about the premier of Quebec.

This is jamsters addy by the way info@jamster.co.uk

Well they have earned £130mill from crazy frog and they have spent £3mill on advertising

It figures as they are cheap to make and not really put on at the most expensive times or most exclusive channels, therefore a cheap constant bombardment.

At what level? as i've just finnished GCSE and it was crap, I wish i'd done music instead!

O God you outsmarted me fresh out of GCSEs! I'm doing Media at Uni...oh man maybe i should of done music as well!

hi, please can you go vote for COTP in the NS General Election thread?

:fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle:

Sure thing. This is a very important post for me (500th) and since I dedicated my 400th to you Tink, I think I'll dedicate this one to Lashie.
w00t Lashie! :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle:

this is the new frog thing with goggles and an egg on his head.
well i cannot say i have heard all of the song, so i am ignorant at the moment.
from the clips i have heard, i quite like it. the original ringtone is even better. but i do not see how you can have ssssoooooooooo many versions of the same thing. and yes, if the song is like the bit i heard over and over again, it would get annoying.

buy think how it feels to be coldplay! their next album will be released as a ringtone first, then they'll conquer the charts.
you can see each member with their mobile out, with the little program on it with which you can write your own ring tone, clicking for the next 5 hours trying to compress each song into polyphonic

Even better? EVEN BETTER? Better than what, a slow painful death?

Well you're the first person to admit a liking for the frog. Though you do say you haven't heard the whole 'song'....just you wait! Ignorance is, in this case, bliss.

BTW it's supposed to be a flying hat on his head not an egg LOL!

CrazyFrog Thread

Why do you care if the topic drifts a bit?

If you are in support of banning the crazy frog from our nations, then please for the love of god, vote FOR my proposal in the UN Proposals....

Just search for "crazy frog"

:p Crazy frog :mp5:

I HATE that frog, it's only number 1 because the townies like it.

I heard CF went to Number one!...

You're really on the ball with this one y'know.

Sorry mate a bit sarcastic there i know, no offence meant... it does say the CF reached number 1 in the first post and all, that was me point. sorry

I see this topic's not progressed much since last night.

well, i just emailed good old Tone about the problem...

haha, just realised that "tone" is like "ringtone"

i meant as in Tony Blair... anyhow, you can email the minister for media at this address andrew.mcintosh@culture.gsi.gov.uk

i'm sure he will appreciate your emails ^_^

luckily, i rarely watch television, and so i was safe from this until recently, as i caught an episode of Hollyoaks during my dinner, and it attacked me 3 or 4 times.... :headbang:

i find that if you only watch quality programs, it doesn't show up...

Also, if you meet someone in a social engagement, simply ask them "do you like that crazy frog ringtone thing?" and if they say yes, you can safely cut them out of your life without having to waste valuable time talking to someone who is below you in the grand scheme of things.

For that aspect, i am grateful to jamster, but it really is just horrible....

A spokesman for Jamster said: "It a very exciting time. It just shows how much the music industry's changing. And whether you like it or not, enough people do want to make the frog number one."

Noooooo...

I think I'll move to Nepal to become a hermit, living a life of solitude and self-flagellation.

no! self-fornication!

I hate crazy frog, its dumb and crude.
As are the people who promoted it.

no! self-fornication!

But Kleenex is hard to come by (no pun intended) in Nepal.

OH GOD I HATE THAT THING! What the hell is wrong with the UK?

the topic of conversation has probably moved on by now, but i just wish to express my anger and hate for crazy frog. Thanks.

Just a quick reminder, if you are against the Crazy Frog, then approve the proposal to ban it from our nationstates.

Do it for your countries people!

Everyone here seems to hate and loathe crazy frog, and rightly so.
So how come the crappy thing is so popular???

So what next? There's more where the Crazy Frog came from.

"I have a lot of sounds," Daniel says. "I always tend to imitate a lot of stuff in my environment, at work, at home, with my friends. It could be anything - even a door opening."

Somebody.... get..... him! There's got to be a Swede willing to put the world out of its misery! :headbang:

Because the people here actually use their brains (for the most part).

It's only idiots that actually like the fucking frog.

Agree totally, as so far i've found most people on this game to be sound intellectuals and there don't fall to the ploys of the media like the masses do.

I can't believe that, in this day and age, the state of British music can be dictated to by a bunch of pathetic primary school babies that haven't yet worked out how to use capital letters and full stops properly.

Well its because people who like "real music" now that singles are a waste of money compared to an album. As I have never bought a single but must have bought nearly one hundred albums.

While we are on the topic of annoying songs has anybody heard of.....

Schnappi: Das Kleine Krocodile

As when I was last in Germany it was it was at number 1 and seemed like the Crazy Frog to have really captured to masses due to it's novelty but also managed to have many remixes ranging from a Ramstein version to one that sounded like a drunk Asian man.

So what are others opinion's of Schnappi?

Good song, bad remixes.

just wait till you get Sweety the Singing Chicken it's 20x more annoying than the frog

Good song, bad remixes.

The words are good for learning german, but after the second time its annoying!

well i think this just about sums up my opinions on the cray frog:

Absololutly KILL that stupid frog now, and make sure it is as painfull as posible.

Dont post crap! Read the thread we have been through all this

But on the third time it's getting better and better. :p

*Backs into a corner and ready's the kitchen knife*

The only version that gets better is the directors cut version ;) !

I haven't seen much of Jamster in the US yet, but I remember being pissed off by the ads the first time I saw them. Why can't a phone just sound like a phone?

yea "Ring Ring" sound so much betta than "Bring da da bring....."

I used to work in a mobile phone repair centre, and lemme tell you MOST ringtones are very, very annoying - especially the ones that are supposed to be songs...

Dont post crap! Read the thread we have been through all this
You actually red the entire thread? :eek:

Know it's a bit out of date now but here's an 'interesting' (read: suicide provoking) fact:

Between 1st May and 23rd May 2005 the Crazy Frog advert was shown just over 45,200 times on British TV (including satellite channels). This equates to over 2000 times a day, or 80 times an hour. (Source: The Sun 'newspaper')

What have we done to deserve this? :headbang:

Great reliable source lol! But I agree why so much? They could sell as much with half the adverts!

The crazy frog is the most annoying thing invented. Should be banned to save us from going mad. KILL THE FROG!!!!!! :mp5:

ya know, the first 10 or so times i heard it, it was funny- and the farting monkeys were the same. now, its just tedious

I haven't heard it on the radio yet, but it's all over TV and the net. Horrible!

No, the first time it was not funny. The first time it was obvious exactly what it was: pathetic. The first time, and all subsequent times, anyone with a frontal lobe should have muted the television and fought one's younger siblings/flatmates/significant other tooth and claw to maintain control of the remote long enough to keep them from turning it back on. I do not appreciate being told the same thing twice, three times in the same advert break, yet I swear to God in a break in daytime telly I was unfortunately compelled to watch by the sheer void of nothingness after the University exams (and also because I was waiting for someone who was late) it came on three times in the same ad break. This is pathetic. This is a waste of money. It's philosophically fascinating to notice this particular simulation has become a simulacrum, existing now not as a property of anything else, that is, pop music, but for itself; that now ringtones are being created for their own sake, rather than of music tracks, and are only coincidentally becoming hit singles - oh, but WAIT! That wasn't a coincidence at all! That was a pathetically-disguised marketing scheme right from the beginning! Get it on the phones, so the mindless masses will have no choice but to go out and buy the damn single! Now, I don't like Coldplay all that much, but that they were beaten by a MASS-MANUFACTURED REMIX that WASN'T EVEN THAT GOOD is indicative that maybe John Stuart Mill was right, and maybe society should have a set of intelligent, cultured people telling them what is right to consider "beautiful".

It's one step from here to Hitler. Mark my words.

alittle gravedigging here but something I thought everyone would be interested to see
