NEWS: New Jimmy Buffet Album Tops the Charts

MUSIC: New Jimmy Buffet Album Tops the Charts

The prolific singer/songwriter's recent album, License To Chill, debuts at the #1 spot on the Billboard Music Charts. This is the first number one rated album for Buffet during a career which has spanned over thirty years. His previous highest album chart showing followed the release of his last album in 2002, Far Side of the World which reached the number five spot. License to Chill easily outdistanced recent highly rated albums by artists Usher and The Roots. Speculation abounds that Buffet's #1 position could potentially be downgraded by the recent debut album release of up-and-coming sensation Ashlee Simpson.

I guess my dad is probably really happy right now

More stuff for fratboys to yell out at bars!

(did I say that?)

sooo not a proper Jimmy Buffet album name
and now he's ruined it for the rest of us

Cheeseburger in paradise would be watching this bastard eaten alive by parrots....

and i still don't care.

jimmy buffet is and always has been a no talent hack. but he's just having a good time, he's not trying to be anything he's not. i say let the fratboys and dads have him.

why the fuck has this been posted?

wait a minute, its not april 1st

Yay!

Yeah, that's right. Screw you all.

he was awesome at the tyco orgy.

Don't get me wrong. i don't mind jimmy buffet. some of his stuff isn't to bad. and i am not thinking about the songs that every one heres at resteraunts and bars. I have read most of his books and don't feel as if i wasted my time in reading them. the thing is my dad is a HUGE jimmy buffet fan. when he came to visit around christmas time all we did was drive up and down the coast listening to buffet while riding in a convertible. did this for two days. that is not my idea of fun

The horror

The horror

The horror

all this means is that it's finally come to pass that old people are buying more records than young people........

Is this before or after the Buffet Vs. Usher battle record?

*unfolds chair and waits for Johnny*

I'm pretty sure this has something to do with Mase finding God.

hm, what's the problem with jimmy buffett?

haha thats a good point. i didnt even think of that.

anyone with cheseburger and paradise in a song title should be shot!

His live albums were better when he was shitfaced on stage, back when there was no Jimmy Buffett, Inc. and no Parrotheads ("You Had to Be There.") Not a great songwriter, not the greatest singer, but fuckit, I own one of his really early CDs for that day or three out of the year I'm in the mood.

Fuel for Grateful Dead haters: he covers "Scarlet Begonias"

This makes me happy. Jimmy Buffett is one of my favorite musicians and philosophers. I don't care that most of my generation doesn't get it. Jimmy has too much wisdom to be cool with a generation that holds the guys on Jackass as heros.
