Hands down the stupidest name for a band ever!!
by pissed off and bitter
-
...and, man, that's sweet. Happy Halloween, all.
-
Make me cum ?
-
Decent cover and a fun video...HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! P.S.-these guys now owe Huey Lewis a nickel.....
-
Why dont more chicks rock the hot Siquorney Weaver costume on Halloween? If I ever saw one in public,I'd offer to be HER keymaster,if you know what I mean....
-
'cuz bustin makes you feel good
-
...because "The Reason" is the worst song ever written and these guys suck. I don't care if they pay homage to my childhood heroes or not.

Yes you do. In fact, for the new film you should play Egon
by starchildad
Also, FUCK THIS BAND. What a piece of fucking shit. Is that Jon Gosselin singing? Look at the fans. Got there is so much horrible things I want to say that not saying them would be even worse.

Are they angling to be on the Ghostbusters 3 soundtrack?
by mrmysteryguest
-
That was actually a decent cover. Changing the line to "bustin' feels pretty good" kinda killed it though. That's the part of the song I always quote/sing and so when the moment came in this cover and they changed it...total buzzkill.
-
I had better looking ghostbuster equipment when I was a kid! You'd think they could have got more expensive stuff being rich and all.
-
so F U to all the haters.
-
Why the fuck would this be considered "Cool" news?
-
I don't know who has a worse band name, them or The Goo Goo Dolls. Anyone else remember seeing the Hoobastank singer get drunk and fuck up a performance at one of the MTV award shows? That was my favorite thing they've ever done.
-
You know? Monsters, partying, having a good time, keeping their evil in check
-
Hoobastank...hehe. You fucking queers.
-
At least get the god damn quote right!! I swear to God, I could write better articles for this site!!
-
Dogs and Cats LIVING together, indeed...mass hysteria!!!
-
That's easily one of the best movie quotes of all time, how on earth could you guys fuck it up?
-
Frankly my dear, I don't give a crap.
-
A bunch of whiner babies piss and moan about something that's actually pretty cool.
Fuck the haters. -
My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to be stabbed.

Hoobastank = shit music that has to ride coat tails of 80s nosta
by awepittance
for anyone to find it even remotely listenable
-
to the person asking why Egon was blonde, they wanted to differentiate (spelling?) the characters so the kiddies wouldnt get confused. thats why they all had different colored hair. as for this video, that was cool and i like how their costumes and equipment were based on the cartoon.
-
it's always sunny
also, this is retarded. -
^page break
-
Once you've heard the original Ray Parker Jnr selling his soul to a directory enquires jingle singing, and i kid you not..."i ain't 'fraid o' no goats"!, this rendition sounds fairly close to genius
-
Happy Halloween from Philadelphia!!
-
I've been a diehard fan of all things Ghostbusters since I was in diapers. I'm I calling this the holy grail of covers? No. But is it a fun and campy throwback? You bet your cock-loving anus it is.
-
I think a remake of this song is pretty much above the level of expertise and experience that these guys possess. And added, I would prefer if it had a bit more soul to it. And I'm not even a soul fan, if you get my drift.
Commendable effort, but thumbs down. -
Let's go get a beer.
-
personalized though. Straight covers are good, but putting a new spin on a classic can be fun sometimes. Just look at the Ramones on the Spider-Man cartoon theme, Marilyn Manson on Tainted Love, Tiffany on New Year's Day. All surprisingly good covers that take the original songs in slightly different directions.
-
...I wonder how some of you can even get out of bed in the morning.
-
but that was fun. Geez, why are there so many hate filled geeks in the world? Why so much bitching? It was a fucking Ghostbusters cover, followed by endless rants of "that sucked, they suck, I hate this, I hate that, fuck hoobastank, fuck this, fuck that." Christ, no wonder why the only thing not getting fucked is you. So go get fucked, if a harmless cover of a Ray Parker Jr. tune (whatever happened to him anyway...?) makes you break into a hate filled tyrade against it. Get fucked. Beg for it. Pay for it. You need it.
-
Maybe it's just because I'm drunk, but "you bet your cock-loving anus it is" just killed me. Well done, sir!
-
Because they sure as heck won't be living together, despite what Big Bang Theory might make you think it wouldn't be funny and annoying, it'd be gratingly irritating.

if it wasnt some band these people apparently all hate they wouldnt care. if it was someone they liked or just someone they never heard of they'd all either like it or be indifferent. its hilarious seeing people taking their dislike of bands/singers/movies/tv series so personally.
-
I don't know if it was an MTV award show or what but I do remember these dipshits giving the shittiest performance ever and then Yellowcard came on after them and BLASTED their asses off the stage. I'm not even saying Yellowcard is good. It must have been humiliating. This is "the reason" I won't even listen to this bullshit.
-
are Miley Cyrus fans.
-
Ghostbusters cartoon. Of course, it's not hard to cover the Ghostbusters song and have it ok. They get the points for the Good homage.

They always chance hair color in TV cartoons based on movies
by nasty in the pasty
Elle was brunette in the MIB movie but blonde in the cartoon series.
-
And stop promoting these bands your obviously friends of?
-
Obviously.
-
I loved the cartoon proton packs and the color-coordinated suits. You only see movie-imitation jumps suits at conventions nowadays. But i cant stand those guys for that whiny song 'i'm not a perfect person'. ugh.
-
I mean, if you're gonna do a Ghostbusters cover and make a video for it, the video should be a beginning-to-end, over-the-top, batshit crazy, geek love letter.
-
not a Hoobastank fan (ecch, that name!), but you have to try to fuck up this song. They kind of sullied it by changing the Bustin Makes Me Feel Good part, but hey---fun video.
-
Try this, you fucking lightweights...http://tinyurl.com/yk726p7
-
is 'Sow-wen', and not fucking 'Sammayn'.Three seperate wankshafts annoyed me at the Hallowe'en party I just came back from by being completely unable to say the name of the very evening they were celebrating.
-
It's 'Hallowe'en', you ill-educated louts. There's an apostophe in it.

"let me tell you something. Busting feels pretty good?"
by player_two_has_entered_the_game
What the hell!? ok everyone knows that's not the words. haha oh ok I like the change. it's dumb. Busting feels pretty good!
-
Fuck them and their messing with a classic!
Player two has left the game -
That's a shame. I figured their ripping off of Incubus would've ended once Incubus was no longer relevant.

BiggusDickus, not bad man. not bad. But...
by player_two_has_entered_the_game
Suck on this one, it's far more shitty (that's the game right?). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjjnQ7YZJVQ
-
I just had the epiphany about a billion hours after I watched this video that "Bustin' feels pretty good!" is the most hilarious line change ever and thus amazing!
-
Ok I like it again then.
-
You know it to be true.
-
Better version of the song than the original. Hope the new movie is updated with as much charm as this. I'm cautiously excited about it. Can't wait to see Bill Murray as Venkman again.Hope to god Harold Ramis loses some weight and ditches the beard though. He looks as old and fat as Robin Williams. Come ON, with all the bodybuilders/diet gurus/plastic surgeons out there in LalaLand there's no excuse for celebs to let themselves go like that. At least the rest of us, poor slobs that we are, have an EXCUSE to look like gravy sacks once we hit the big 50. Shape up Spengler!
-
Hoobastank just sucks sweaty balls. Stating facts is not hating.
-
is 'separate', and not fucking 'seperate'. Hey BiggusDickus, talk about annoying --- How about an absurd TB wankshaft who actually has his Hallowe'en (wow) ruined by somebody mispronouncing Samhain, and who then actually makes a big wankshafty deal about it on a message board, and then - for the cherry on top - his snooty pendantic ass misspells the word "separate." Oh my god, please go choke on some small parts. Terrible...
-
Thanks man. I try.
-
According to rottentomatoes. So you goobers who said this would top The Dark Knight have just failed miserably in your prediction just like you fail with your erection.

My erection has alot in common with Michael Jackson
by kevin_costners_recycled_piss
Both are white, stiff and buried in something right now.
-
Well, it did better than that terrible Where the Wild Thins Are.
-
But then I realized I'd have to listen to Hoobastank...
-
Give it back you skank!
-
...Time to put Master of Puppets on repeat...
-
...they aren't angling to be on the Ghostbusters III soundtrack. How are Hoobastank still around? Who the fuck is buying their records? Please let me know so I can kill them.
-
Pwned. I'll get my coat...
-
Wait a second and I'll join you. Idiot that I am, I also pwned myself with my tragic "pendantic" typo. The lesson here, for us both, is that it just doesn't pay to play grouchy Word Police. Goddamn it. Now I must punch myself in the nuts as a sacrifice to the Karma Gods of TalkBack.
-
What do you get when you take a crappy mid 80s song and mix it with a crappier so called modern band? A total abortion that smells like a babys coffin the middle of summer.
Plus the singer reminds me a less douchy John Gosselyn, so that doesn't bode well for him :) -
*LOL* These guys are terrible. I remember going to a concert at the Rave in Milwaukee and they were trying to pass out FREE stickers for Hoobastank in the parking lot. No one took a FREE sticker... just brushed past 'em like they were some street evangelist trying to tell them "the good news".
-
Okay, I love the first Ghostbusters movie but I've hated the theme song since it came out and feel it only (barely) works within the context of the movie. As a pop tune that one might listen to on the radio it's an outright piece of shit, it's repetitive as hell and is pretty much about nothing. "There's something strange in your neighborhood. Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters!" That's pretty much it, set on repeat. Enough already!
-
There are many pronounciations of Samhain... "sow-win", "sown", "sa-win", "sow-ween", "sow-wain", even "sa-vhain" and "sa-vheen" depending on which tradition you're taking it from (Irish, old Irish, German, modern, etc). "Sow-win" is simply the most widely used today, but that doesn't make it correct. Besides, the band pronounced it phonetically ("sam-hain"), so can you really blame people for getting confused?
"Halloween" and "Hallowe'en" are BOTH current and correct.
-
these are the kinds of bands that deserve a seat on that rocket to the Sun in that Simpsons Halloween special.
-
Gentlemen, the time has come to form the 'Grumpy Pedantic Bastards Club'.Are you with me?
-
This band still exists?
-
Count me in for membership right fucking now!
-
Ok people, we can all stop exclaiming that we don't listen to this band. Sure, I'm not a fan either, and I agree that the name is pretty terrible, but this is way cooler than anything Nickelback, Creed, Staind, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Default, Theory of a Deadman or goddamn Kings of Leon have ever done. If the guy in the video actually had his cigarette lit, then I would almost call this badass. Best thing I've seen this band do, period
-
but ignorance is probably bliss so more power to ya!
-
They've been making less-than-mediocre musics for a decade. This is fun! And now they can get back to sucking nu-metal cock.
-
We'll need a secret password -- preferably some archaic saying or phrase that never made it into modern English and which fell out of vogue some time before the Battle of Hastings. Also, special rings with skulls or something on them would be nice.
-
Better than anything Kings of Leon have done? You sir, are a fucking idiot.
-
I have never heard a more over-hyped and under-talented band than Kings of Leon. I'm aure you would argue that their older albums are examples of great, American indie-rock that were woefully ignored, and that their most recent stab at bullshit superstardom has some good tunes if you're willing to look past their terrible singles. No, no, no. Have you ever actually listened to them, as opposed to sucking their dicks for indie cred? Or do you just like Sex on Fire? Either way, your point is moot.
-
But they sure are dreamy, aren't they? *sigh* Give me a break. I might have argued that they were better than Hoobastank, but not anymore. Congrats Hoob
-
And I don't give two shits about indie cred. Kings of Leon are overhyped, but they've had a couple of good tunes. Whereas Hoobastank has produced nothing but rotten ass. Hell, Sex on Fire is a thousand times better than any whiny bullshit Hoobashit tune and you know it.
-
...for their recent Ray Parker Jr cover. Kings has done nothing even half as cool, and YOU know it. Pull your head out of your ass and enjoy something because it's fun for a change. At least we can agree that Kings are over-hyped and Hoob sucks. Maybe if Kings covered Footloose, Time of Your Life or that Caddyshack song I'd change my mind. Ok.. maybe not Time of Your Life
