This is the Must List, and we approve this message

Apr 9, 2008, 03:51 PM | by Christine Fenno

Categories: Must List

Annie Lennox fans, be warned: Travel the world and the seven seas, and you may never find a campaign endorsement as hilariously bad as this one. I might have a twisted definition of the word "must," but I feel it's imperitive to share the joy and laughter that this "McCain Girls" music video has in store for you (it's in the YouTubey, D.I.Y. tradition of Obama Girl, but with even less production value).

In a country where Ryan Seacrest has us all programmed to cast votes for good singing, this crime against the Eurythmics can not be helping the presidential hopeful's cause. However, you can help our cause here at EW by letting us know which items (up to three) are on your Must List this week — be it music, television, movies, videogames, you name it. Remember to include your e-mail address in case your pick is selected. We hope by the end of the day it will be raining ideas in the comments section.

UPDATE: Alas, the copyright lawyers have gotten the "Here Comes McCain Again" clip pulled, but the "It's Raining McCain" video is still there at the link above. If you happen to see the McCain Girls' Eurythmics cover pop up again elsewhere, let us know in the comments section.

More favorites:
1. BroadwayWorld.com: A fun, Broadway site with a hilarious message board which I frequently visit.
2. MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY: A clever, old-fashioned, and well done film with Amy Adams, one of the best actresses in Hollywood.
3. Kristen Wiig on SNL: Funniest girl there! (Sorry, Amy Poehler)

Mitchell Turner Sat, Apr 19, 2008 at 09:02 PM EST

1. Amy Adams in ENCHANTED: A memorable performance I will never forget.
2. KEEPING UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS: One of the funniest reality shows on television.
3. Carly Smithson: A bloody brilliant performer with a unique style all her own.

"The World's Greatest Fishing Show" ESPN2

I know what you're thinking, "a fishing show?". But trust me, as someone who hates the outdoors and has never fished, this is the funniest show on TV. Think Dirty Jobs mixed with some VHI style whackyness.

Alyson Tue, Apr 15, 2008 at 01:23 AM EST

High School Confidential. I finally caught it, and it's SO compelling.

Bob Short Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 06:31 PM EST

Always on my "Must List":
1) "Chelsea Lately"-Chelsea Handler is the funniest, smartest, sexiest talk show host with the most hilarious show-not to mention the best side-kick (Hot Pocket Chuy) and the funniest best friend (Loni Love).
2)Craig Ferguson-Stream of consciousness comedy with a Scottish brogue and a wicked streak!
3)Kathy Griffin- Can't wait for the premiere of Season 4 of "My Life on the D-List" on Bravo! this summer-and the new Kathy stand-up special that always kicks it off!

Frank Sat, Apr 12, 2008 at 04:25 PM EST

The Ron and Fez Show on XM Satellite Radio, with hosts Ron Bennington and Fez Whatley. Weekdays 12-3pm ET on XM Channel 202.
The best-kept - and funniest - secret in radio!

MILF ISLAND on 30 Rock

Liz Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 11:55 PM EST

1) MILF ISLAND on 30 Rock!
2) She & Him
3) Samantha Who?

NellieAbigail Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 06:13 PM EST

This site rocks my world: THECHEAPPOP.COM

Saffron Sha-nee-nee Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 05:35 PM EST

When I get bored at work or need some comic relief, I go to TheCheapPop.com for some laughs. The have the funniest (and sometimes thought-provoking) celebrity interviews, but most of all, they have this crazy mustache fetish which is hilarious. And they have up-to-the-minute paparazzi photos too!

Ryan B Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 01:03 PM EST

The Raconteurs: Consolers of the Lonely. Give Jack White a month and he can record, market and release the best album of Spring. Wonder what he'd do with two months?

Andy Samberg on SNL. This year's digital shorts are the best thing on TV right now, period.

Rachel Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 10:45 AM EST

1. "Then We Came to the End" by Joshua Ferris - for everyone in an office, which is probably everyone reading this.
2. "Volume One" by She & Him
3. The BBC series "State of Play" - see it before it becomes an Americanized movie

Plotkin Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 09:38 AM EST

I just bought this hilarious book!! Definitely a must!!!!

I just want to point out that it would actually be pretty painful if it were raining McCain. Talk about an ecological disaster.

rachel Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 10:27 PM EST

Jason Mraz's "We Sing" EP. The stripped down style really lets the beauty of these songs shine through.

Daniel Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 10:12 PM EST

-- The return of the NBC Thursday night comedies - honestly, Earl, 30 Rock, The Office, and Scrubs are all new? I feel like it's been years since I've been able to say that!
-- Secret Invasion by Brian Michael Bendis - MARVEL's 8-issue series started off with a bang, proving that, if you're into comics, then technically the Summer Blockbuster Season begins in April, one month early!
-- Juno on DVD - commentary by Reitman and Cody. Nuff said.

Tink in Cali Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 05:24 PM EST

One of my musts this week is watching Michael Johns' Dolly Parton week performance. I have watched it a ton on Youtube. As Randy would say - molten hot.

Also, we saw Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day - loved the look and feel of this film.

ANTM Freak Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:57 PM EST

If you like Pandora.com you should also check out Last.fm. Similar concept but more on the social networking side of things.

reality Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:45 PM EST

I'm no fan of the Hills, yet for the past three weeks I have been watching it, and I admit I'm embarrassed. You see I'm a guy, and for "reality" shows I should be watching American Choppers, Ax Men, or something along the lines of "manly" shows. But no, I'm watching The Hills a show about "rich" girls who in their daily lives encounter ex-boyfriends, friends, enemies, and frenemies(a word I got from my other favorite show Miss Guided)and yet they find the time to go to school and "work". Therefore I nominate The Hills as an item on the Must Watch List because it's addicting and their lives are way better than mine.

aps Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:36 PM EST

McCain girls. wow. i actually support the guy, but....that was scary.
and ninedaves, pandora.com is awesome. i just checked it out. pretty cool stuff there. i put in a bunch of artists that i like for a station and it started spitting out music that i hadn't entered but love anyway. definitely a must.

dnnlnn85 Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:31 PM EST

I just have one for the Must List. Chris Parnell on Miss Guided. I loved him on SNL and his Vice Principal Bruce Terry is absolutely hilarious. I pray that they let him rap in an upcoming ep. For that I would so buy a train ticket to Terrytown.

ANTM Freak Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:17 PM EST

1) On the same vein as the "McCain Girls", we have La Pequena Hillary Clinton all the way from Chile
youtube.com/watch?v=Hg1LEsSeYJw

2)Lollapalooza tickets. Sure it's ridiculously expensive but Radiohead and Nails on the same weekend? sign me up.

3) Animoto.com: I'm addicted to this new app, where you can throw in your favorite pictures (like the ones from your crazy Vegas weekend), add a good rockin' song and voila, you got an awesome professional video/slideshow without doing any work.

Lauren Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:05 PM EST

1. The updated versions of Sweet Valley High, released this week. Crapalicious bubblegum pulp, no matter what decade you're in. I'm loving the nostalgia.
2. Yael Naim's self-titled album. I can't stop listening to it.
3. The Hills--Sweet Valley High for television.

I want to just say that I have an advanced degree and a good job. It's just been a tough couple of weeks and I'm relishing fluffy escapism right now.

NineDaves Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 03:03 PM EST

1) "Fascination" by Alphabeat. Not yet available in the US, this band from Denmark has one of the best songs out there right now - waiting for you on youtube as we speak.
2) pandora.com. The tagline says it all: "Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music." Just type in the name of your favorite artist, song, or composer and they create a radio station featuring that music and more like it right there! Who needs XM?
3) Work Out on Bravo. Jackie and her cast of misfit trainers are back... and hopefully, Lifetime won't snatch them away from Bravo anytime soon.
