One Hit Wonderland requests are about to be re-opened. Be warned -- they're going to be insanely expensive.
Added 2018-04-05 02:54:00 +0000 UTCI'm thinking like $350. That's way too much. But the last time I put them up they were less than half that and they sold out insanely quickly. So I'm going to press my luck and ridiculous overprice them and then maybe drop them down based on the responses I get. Or jack them up! Who knows. I like doing the requests but I don't want to be doing them for like eight years like I did last time I did this.
I get the feeling this is going to be a bit of an April tradition on the ol' Patreon

Oh no... he'll get paid a bunch by rich people. The horror.

2018-04-08 07:44:06 +0000 UTCSeriously, you should have put them up for auction. I know that comes with the problem of "a few rich people racking up the prices for everyone else" but I think with some tweeking the auction system would benefit you moreso

2018-04-08 03:39:02 +0000 UTCI like anything from Salt n' Peppa to Idiot Flesh and The Residents so I could probably provide you with a bit of a varied list of choices.
2018-04-05 23:19:04 +0000 UTCI specifically created my patreon profile for the purpose of being able to make requests for OHW which was a while ago as you've been on a request hiatus. I don't question your price range because I get it but it's a bit out of my range due to adult type bullshit like buying heating oil for the house. Would you consider something more along the lines of $150 if I give you a list of songs for you to pick from? It would be like a request but you would also have some control over the choice.
2018-04-05 23:17:21 +0000 UTCwell I mean, it doesn't really matter. you don't pay the money until the end of the month, that's how patreon works

2018-04-05 15:57:44 +0000 UTCI think I may just shell out for it this time. I'm torn between Love, Loreena McKennitt, and the Veronicas.

2018-04-05 14:22:33 +0000 UTCWhile I value your opinion and find you entertaining, I think I'm good. Hope you have takers.

2018-04-05 11:56:36 +0000 UTCYou can just limit the number of Patreons on that tier. First come, first served.
Joss Strand
2018-04-05 10:59:38 +0000 UTCI know you said you'd never do it, but if the Patreon requester were willing to provide you with some research materials and some context as a British person who was around for that time when the UK public got Rage Against The Machine to the coveted UK Christmas #1 on the charts... would you be interested?

2018-04-05 10:40:46 +0000 UTCSo, that OHW crossover with Rantasmo on Army of Lovers "Crucified" is on hold, if I understand?

2018-04-05 09:47:28 +0000 UTCMy need for a OHW on Cars is legendary around these parts. Guess I'm eating nothing but noodles for a few months.

2018-04-05 08:13:38 +0000 UTCIf I had that kinda spare cash, I'd make you choose between Anna Nalick and TATU.
Matthew
2018-04-05 07:37:36 +0000 UTCWaiting til Friday would be rad for those with paychecks. I may not even be able to swing it but if i want any chance its gonna be then. Appreciate the heads up though!
Adam Nelson
2018-04-05 07:34:55 +0000 UTCAh, man, if I had the money, I'd pick "I Want Candy"!
2018-04-05 06:58:37 +0000 UTCI want to see "Steal my Kisses" by Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals. Will I pay $350? Maybe...
2018-04-05 06:17:21 +0000 UTCTwo songs that I'm requesting I think would be great for One Hit Wonderland: Fuck It (I Don't Want You Back) by Eamon and Freestyler by Bomfunk MC's
Daniel Woodward
2018-04-05 05:34:09 +0000 UTCWith how fast they sold out I doubt you would've had a chance.
Josh Spicer
2018-04-05 04:31:58 +0000 UTCMy only request would be wait until next Friday but if you can't it's fine. One day you will review "Bitch". EDIT: Oh! It'll be forever! So yes!
Josh Spicer
2018-04-05 04:30:14 +0000 UTChonestly, since these videos take you a LONG time to produce, that amount of money is not unreasonable.
2018-04-05 04:01:23 +0000 UTCCan we request a song that's been a hit on the charts multiple times? I was thinking "Popcorn" by Hot Butter.
2018-04-05 03:23:00 +0000 UTCMaybe if you do a little dance to it.
ParagonRocky
2018-04-05 03:22:02 +0000 UTCIf I could afford it, I would request Dream Theater's "Pull Me Under" or "Stutter Rap" by Morris Minor and the Majors.
2018-04-05 03:19:41 +0000 UTCDamn. Knew I should've gotten one back when they were affordable.
Alan Kase
2018-04-05 03:17:13 +0000 UTCAlso, if I were to pay you enough, can there be a Top 20 Worst Hit Songs of 2000?
Thomas Carmody
2018-04-05 03:14:34 +0000 UTCHe's started tweeting about taxes, so I have no idea.
Michael Russell
2018-04-05 03:14:07 +0000 UTCDo we need to keep refreshing the patreon page to see when we can jump on this, or is there going to be an announcement for when the hammer drops?
Noah Ramon
2018-04-05 03:12:36 +0000 UTCI have a few requests. You can make your choice based on my suggestions. I think you may enjoy these based on the research they involve "Major Tom (Coming Here)" - Peter Schilling "96 Tears" - ? and the Mysterians (If you want One Hit Wonderland to take another trip to the '60s) "Torn" - Natalie Imbruglia "She's A Beauty" - The Tubes
Thomas Carmody
2018-04-05 03:10:27 +0000 UTCI think he did that before but they sold out so fast that it overflowed the limiter or something.
Jeffrey Rysewyk
2018-04-05 03:09:16 +0000 UTCTodd, I actually think that's a reasonable amount. That number will keep the requests low, and you'll be well compensated for your time. I'm seriously considering dropping money on this, because, to the best of my knowledge, "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies is a OHW, and I want to hear you talk about a cartoon band.
2018-04-05 03:03:51 +0000 UTCCant wait! One Hit Wonderland and Train Wreckords are my faves!
2018-04-05 03:01:19 +0000 UTCIf you're worried about having a backlog, you can set a limit to how many people can join in at that level.
Stephen Staver
2018-04-05 02:58:56 +0000 UTCWe'll see if the price is right. If so, I'm requesting "Crush" by Jennifer Paige.
Jess Morgan
2018-04-05 02:58:27 +0000 UTCYes lets have a Buy Todd a new car tier requests mwahaha
Sarah Wampler
2018-04-05 02:57:19 +0000 UTCCool. I may not pledge but if someone can take my request, “Flagpole Sitta” by Harvey Danger?
2018-04-05 02:55:29 +0000 UTCLet's do this
