Crazy Frog: best thing that's happened to the BBC in years

Oh they didn't stop banging on about it.

Kate and John hated it [and wore fetching ear muffs when it was played], but Fiona couldn't get enough.

and kept doing an impression of it, with Andrew Castle joining in at the 'bah bah' bit!

Says it all about Fiona really

Is that James Martin?

The benchmark use to be around 100,000 would see some sort of guarantee but it's a lot lower these days and on average week, I'm guessing half of that figure would be good enough for number 1.

Perhaps the logic involved meant that not everybody who buys singles automatically listen to Radio 1. The main core of buyers for this song seems to be kids who are using pester power and the older clientel who think it's all hip and trendy!

For the love of God up a tree if that get's to number one on Sunday that shows how sad the kids & yoof of today are. I am not much older than them & we didn't have sh*te like this!

Er, Teletubbies or Mr Blobby anyone...? Or maybe a bit of Timmy Mallett?

No I actually Think Crazy Frog Beats ALL of those even though they were complete sh*te

You know it's getting bad when my mum's screaming at the telly over the Crazy Frog ad! Just heard her moaning that it's on again!

Well Timmy Mallett and Crazy Frog both go 'blaaaaah!' so I'm at a loss.

At least Timmy Mallett wasn't on at every ad break on hundreds of TV channels.

Had slightly fewer channels in those days remember! Ad space was somewhat more expensive! Otherwise I can well believe we'd have had "Get the fantastic sound of Timmy Mallet on your mobile" day in day out.
