SNL Music Video: Jizz In My Pants
There’s nothing funnier than a great Saturday Night Live digital short. This one, “Jizz In My Pants” is a hilarious music video about premature ejaculation. Since Netmix is generally a music oriented blog, we thought you might enjoy this humorous spoof on pop music videos. It’s got the prerequesite DJ mixing it up in the background, even in a rain shower. Soprano’s actress Jamie-Lynn DiScala makes a guest appearance. Enjoy!

Prodigy – Their law (live in Moscow 97)
You want to see something crazy. Just watch this old Prodigy concert, live from Moscow. It was uploaded to YouTube on May 3, 2007.
I’ve never seen a crowd like this in my life, but then again, I’ve never been to a Prodigy concert.
The track is “Their Law.”
Don’t forget, the Prodigy have a new album coming out called “Invaders Must Die.” It’ll be coming out in early 2009.
