It's Friday, so let's do the iPod shuffle:
1. Basement Jaxx, "Red Alert"
2. Tone Def, "Just a Human Being" (from the "Fear of a Black Hat" soundtrack)
3. Pet Shop Boys, "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind of Thing"
4. Underworld, "Push Downstairs"
5. James Brown, "The Payback"
6. Run-DMC/Aerosmith, "Walk This Way"
7. Joey Altruda, "Mucci's Jag Mk.II"
8. The Who, "The Seeker"
9. Underworld, "Born Slippy"
10. Avenue Q soundtrack, "The Money Song"
Let me just express my deepest sorrow for those who don't have the Avenue Q soundtrack because they a) hate musicals, or b) hate puppets. That show has some of the funniest songs ever performed on a stage, and while I'm ordinarily in with the crowd that hates musicals, I can't turn my back on any show that has songs like "You Can Be Loud As the Hell You Want When You're Makin' Love" and "My Girlfriend Who Lives in Canada":
Her name is Alberta
She lives in Vancouver
She cooks like my mother
And sucks like a Hoover
Wow, I don't have the soundtrack yet, but now I'm off to get it!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the refrain at the end of each verse of "If You Were Gay"
ReplyDeleteBecause you see
If it were me
I would feel free to say
That I was gay!
(But I'm not gay.)
Just something about the way the Ernie-clone punctuates that "but I'm not gay" line is hilarious.
And sometimes "I Wish I Could Go Back To College" makes me cry.
"There's a Fine, Fine Line" makes me weep, though I always thought the funniest title of that album is "What Do You Do With a BA in English?"
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize that all these straight people could confess to loving a show other than "Phantom."
