Andy Samberg & TLI in Filter Magazine
FILTER Issue 43
The Rise and Terrible, Terrible Fall of THE LONELY ISLAND
On stands March 04, 2011
What began as post-grad goofing by three best friends has launched the careers of these seriously funny—and Emmy-winning, Grammy-nominated—SNL dudes. Which is exactly why Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone and Andy Samberg let us follow them around New York for an afternoon of highs, lows, and—hey, did you just hear that?—maybe a royal haunting or two in the not-so-normal lives of The Lonely Island. Graduating from their early days of online sketches to writing and acting gigs with Saturday Night Live, the dudes have redefined musical comedy with their SNL Digital Shorts, featuring guests appearances by everyone from Justin Timberlake to T-Pain, and singing about all facets of life from cupcakes to creepin’. Here, we discuss how the group delegates, the balance between friendship and work, what it’s like on Saturday evenings at 30 Rockefeller Center, and just a little bit about what it is that makes them so damn funny.
Also inside Issue 43: Our Tribute to landmark ’90s Britpop outfit Suede, whose rapid rise to fame and decline was punctuated with relationship tensions and drug use, but unified by an undeniable talent and extraordinary catalog. We talk history and discography with Brett Anderson and Mat Osman, while former Suede conspirators Justine Frischmann (of Elastica), drummer Mike Joyce (The Smiths) and producer Ed Buller weigh in on their time with the band—who are set for a comeback in 2011 after a near-decade-long absence. Elsewhere, we humanize the missing link of Paul with director Greg Mottola (including a weigh-in from frequent collaborator Bill Hader), whose films (Superbad, Adventureland) touch poignantly and hilariously on the bonds of friendship and beyond. We discuss methods of cinematic portraiture with filmmaker/artist Julian Schnabel, whose latest film, Miral, strikes deep political, religious and human themes. Additionally, we trace family lineage with songwriter Liam Finn, whose apple fell not far from the Crowded House tree; delve into the illustrated world of Kramers Ergot cartoonist Sammy Harkham; and go on a soul-searching daytrip around the streets of N.Y.C. with Lykke Li.
We hand out our Getting to Knows to The Boxer Rebellion, Smith Westerns, GAYNGS and The Naked and Famous and offer up a You Should Already Know with Mogwai; trip overseas to Hawaii with Sailor Jerry and Switzerland for the Heartland Festival; and Miss Polly Jean Harvey gives us a picturesque EndNote worth 1,000 ships to cap it all off.

Andy Samberg and TLI - are not Weird Al
This Ain’t Weird Al
The novelty song used to be popular, but it has never, ever been cool. Whether it was Allan Sherman making his 1963 hit “Hello Mudduh! Hello Fadduh!” or Weird Al Yankovic parodying Michael Jackson with “Eat It” in 1984, the comedian who made singalong spoofs was like the hip stand-up comic’s embarrassing country cousin. There were exceptions, of course, like the cerebral, political Tom Lehrer — but let’s just say that, in general, Lenny Bruce and George Carlin did not sing. The novelty song was an outlet for nerds, morning-show shock jocks and the kind of guys who put the word “weird” in front of their names. This might help explain why the era of the novelty song seemed to end right around the time that hip-hop came of age: the greatness of Weird Al’s “Straight Outta Lynwood” notwithstanding, the average funny-song singer was not cut out to spoof N.W.A.
The Lonely Island has changed all that. The group, consisting of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, who are familiar from their “Digital Shorts” on “Saturday Night Live,” has not only revived the novelty song, but they’ve done the unthinkable: they’ve made it cool. And catchy. They make novelty songs you can laugh at and also bob your head to.
Their 2005 breakthrough video, “Lazy Sunday,” was directed by Schaffer, with music written by Taccone on his Mac computer, and featured Samberg and Chris Parnell, who was then Samberg’s “S.N.L.” cast mate, as dweeb pals rapping over a gangsta backbeat about planning to see a matinee of “The Chronicles of Narnia.” It was an ingenious bit of high burlesque that became a YouTube sensation, drawing five million viewers in two months. In 2009, they released an album, “Incredibad,” which featured a single, “I’m on a Boat,” that was nominated for a Grammy. And “I Just Had Sex,” the first single from their next album (due to be released this spring) has more than 50 million YouTube views since its debut in December.
“We are so excited by the idea of songs being funny,” Taccone told me, “but it adds to the joke if they also sound good.” To that end, the Lonely Island’s songs aren’t punning parodies, but keen dissections of a genre’s cliches. A novelty hit like “Eat It” was really only funny if you were familiar with “Beat It,” but a song like “I’m on a Boat,” which features Samberg and Schaffer rapping aboard a yacht, lovingly spoofs every over-the-top hip-hop video. And if the boasts in “I’m on a Boat” are intentionally funny — has there ever been a better yachting-based taunt than “I got my swim trunks/And my flippy-floppies/I’m flipping burgers/You at Kinko’s, straight flipping copies”? — the song itself could pass as the best track in the Hot 97 rotation. (The auto-tuned refrain by a guest star, T-Pain, is, no joke, among his finest work.) The humorist Andy Borowitz compares the Lonely Island to the mock-metal band Spinal Tap, in that “the best Spinal Tap songs also work as lumbering heavy-metal songs.”
The group’s collaborations — they have performed with Akon, worked with the esteemed reggae producers Sly & Robbie and used beats by T-Minus, a producer for Nicki Minaj — also help smooth the racial politics of their music. Samberg, Schaffer and Taccone met in junior high school in Berkeley in the 1990s, where everyone listened to hip-hop. “It was a ton of N.W.A., Beastie Boys, the Ice Cube solo records,” says Samberg, who at 32 is a year younger than his partners. In their best songs, the joke is never directed at a specific performer; rather, it’s on them — these three white guys from the Bay Area, posturing like gangstas while rapping about cupcakes. In an age of uninspired pop and fragmented audiences, the Lonely Island’s most significant accomplishment is not reviving the spirit of Allan Sherman but simply rallying people around music that also happens to be funny. Even my parents, who think Kanye West is a Florida Key, have both heard — and laughed at — the Lonely Island single “Motherlover.” That’s no longer a novelty song: it’s more like a national anthem.

Andy Samberg's Glamour interview (Feb 2011) version 2
Okay. Here is our second version of this article. I figured it's different enough just to post it again. This scoop comes from Anony. Thanks Anony!
Why Funny Guys Like Andy Samberg Always Win...
Because they’ve got the nerve to wear green hot pants! Meet Andy Samberg, star of Saturday Night Live, pal of Justin Timberlake and (did ya know?) singer in the band Lonely Island. Like he needs to be in a band to get chicks.
by Amy Spencer
So what was it like working with the models on the shoot?
They were lovely. I felt bad for them because it was chilly. I felt like a mother hen protecting my eggs.
You must have been pretty cold yourself. Tell us about the shorts.
I was petitioning for shorter. These were the shortest shorts we had, so I just rocked ‘em.
How do you feel about tight jeans on women?
I’m a fan. My high school years were during the nineties, and me and my friends often talk about how we got ripped off, because every generation but ours had a tight-jean phase. We had the TLC phase, where the ladies were wearing baggy Girbauds and loose overalls with one strap. Which, you know, is not without its charms. But we certainly never got that supertight, high-cut shorts, Dazed and Confused look.
How do you get your hair to do the things it does?
I’ve been training it since high school, so now each hair is like its own organism. I can do specific sweeps through with my hand.
What is the sexiest thing a woman can do?
Um, I guess sleep with me? I consider it a very sexy thing if a woman has sex with me.
What’s the sexiest thing a woman can wear?
Whatever Phoebe Cates was wearing in Gremlins. She had kind of a sweater-beret situation.
You’re friends with Justin Timberlake. What kind of attention do you get from girls when you’re out with him?
I could count the times I’ve been out with him on one hand. We hang out a lot of times when we’re working on stuff, but he gets plenty of attention.
When you’re not out with him, do you call each other?
We Skype each other constantly before we go out for an evening to make sure the other one thinks the other one has a good outfit on or something. He’s always Skyping me asking if I think he looks good in [his] jeans. [Laughs.]
Who is the funniest woman you’ve ever met?
That’s a tough one. I’ve worked with arguably some of the funniest women of all time—Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey, Kristen Wiig—that’s an incredible list right there.
What is the sexiest thing a woman can say?
[Laughs.] God, I’m so bad with that. I would say, first off, never once in my life have I used the word sexy. So probably like, “The Jerk is my favorite movie,” something like that.
What’s the sexiest thing you do, and when do you feel the sexiest?
I have never done a sexy thing, and I have never felt sexy. [Laughs.] This conversation is the most times I’ve said the word sexy in my life.
You don’t need to say it again for four more years.
Oh, no, I’m going to say it constantly now. But I don’t truly believe that men can be sexy. The attempt of sexiness on a man’s part always ends in lameness.
If we spent the night at your house, what might we notice about your place in the morning?
Um…probably my exact replica of the Sistine Chapel that I have done on the ceiling?
I think we’re all going to want to spend the night at your house now, because that sounds spectacular.
Well, tell everyone they’re invited. We’ll have a big slumber party.

What's Cuter: These Spring Outfits, or Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg?
For our February 2011 Guy Issue, we sat down with one of the funniest dudes we know, Mr. Andy Samberg himself, to pick his brain about why the funny guy always wins. Then, we threw him into the ring with some gorgeous gals to show off some of spring's chicest looks (he didn't mind, trust us), and we couldn't figure out what we loved more—the 20 retro-cute outfits, or the even cuter guy rocking the short shorts. Decide for yourself (and peep some seriously sweet styles)!
Go red, white and sexy blue. Seventies influences are everywhere this spring, and 1976 bicentennial style looks very now.
Get something sharp and citrus. This isn’t the year for pales—whatever juicy color you like, pick its deepest form.
Be relaxed about retro. You want easy pieces that reference the past (like a belted bikini), not a costume.
Glam it up with some sparkle (or just try short shorts). With colors this intense, silver or gold (or both!) works as a neutral.
Grab some old-school denim. Think worn-in wash, slightly high-waisted and tight in the tush.

Andy Samberg in Glamour magazine, February 2011
This interview has been painstakingly typed out from Rayanna Janae over at http://squintskywardandlisten.tumblr.com/ - Go check her shtuff out!!! With one further ado...
ADOOOOOO!
======================================
Glamour: So what was it like working with the models on the shoot?
Andy: They were lovely. I felt bad for them because it was chilly. I felt like a mother hen protecting her eggs.
Glamour: You must have been pretty cold yourself. Tell us about the shorts.

But we certainly never got that supertight, high cut short, Dazed and Confused look.
G: You've joked that you're a "text whore." What's the best and worst thing about texting in relationships?
Andy: The best thing is you're able to maintain a long-distance relationship much more hands on. Without getting into too much detail, that has definitely come in handy in my life. The worst is texting with someone who doesn't have the text "tone" as you. You gotta build your own text language together.

Andy: We Skype each other constantly before we go out for an evening to make sure the other one thinks the other one has a good outfit on or something. He's always Skyping me and asking if I think he looks good in his jeans. [Laughs]
G: Who is the funniest woman you've ever met?
A: That's a tough one. I've worked with arguably some of the funniest woman of all time -- Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey, Kristen Wiig -- that's an incredible list there.

Glamour: What is the sexiest thing a woman can say?
Andy: [Laughs] God, I'm so bad with that. I would say, first of, never once in my life have I used the word sexy. So probably like, "The Jerk is my favorite movie," something like that.
Glamour: What;s the sexiest thing you do, and when do you feel the sexiest?
Andy: I have never done a sexy thing, and I have never felt sexy. [Laughs.] This conversation is the most times I've said sexy in my entire life.
Glamour: You don't need to say it again for four more years.
Andy: Oh no, I'm going to say it constantly now. But I don't truly believe that men can be sexy. The attempt of sexiness on a man's part always ends in lameness.
G: If we spent the night at your house, what might we notice?
A: Um...probably my exact replica of the Sistine Chapel that I have done on my ceiling?
Glamour: I think we're all going to have to spend the night at your house now, because that sounds spectacular.
Andy: Well, tell everyone they're invited. We'll have a big slumber party. ~~
