The Humans Are Dead!
And now for some comic relief. Apparently, there’s a whole subculture of crazed musicians writing brilliantly comic songs about robots killing humans. It wasn’t long ago that I came across the Never Trust Robots video by musician Andrew Thompson. Today I came across an even funnier one by a band from New Zealand.
The hilarious number named “The Humans Are Dead”, performed live by Flight of The Conchords. Note the incredible impression of a standard speech synthesizer voice near the end of the song!

Oh God. That was funny. My favorite was the “binary solo”.

Too funny, particularly the bit about time travel in the beginning of the song.

We have no elephants, nor any elephant cruelty — that really cracked me up.
