Well. 150 posts. It was bound to happen eventually, and means there's now 150 good bits of evidence that I have way too much time on my hands.
Setting a dangerous precedent, I'm using this as an opportunity for a music quiz... of sorts. No prizes for the right answer - be as weird as you want. I want to see exactly how weird a song can get by optionally replacing every second line with a line from another song.
So, click, play, have fun.

Date: 2005-09-17 10:14 am (UTC)I am the entertainer
I come to do my show
You've heard my latest record
It's been on the radio
Ah, it took me years to write it
They were the best years of my life
It was a beautiful song
But it ran too long
If you're gonna have a hit
You gotta make it fit
So they cut it down to 3:05

Date: 2005-09-17 10:45 am (UTC)Also, *delight* at the s-o-d-a soda bit. That is one of my favorite parodies.
Also also, surprised at how many songs I recognize from random lines in a very random poll.

Date: 2005-09-17 07:23 pm (UTC)Yoda is one of my very favourite parodies, and 900 years is pretty old.
They were supposed to be fairly recognisable ones, mostly snipped out of my Winamp playlist (with some others I just randomly thought of). I thought slipping in lines from other Billy Joel songs was especially fun.

Date: 2005-09-17 10:22 pm (UTC)I can't do the poll :( All I can see is the GUD version. Let's put it this way, the first line is, "It was nine o'clock on a Tuesday morning..."
