I take these two have been slowed-down and speeded-up respectively, and adjusted to remove Chipmunk effects?
Someone should do this to Frank Sinatra. He’d spin in his grave.

That bit about Oliver Reed is a bit far-fetched.

The entire Garfunkel and Oates catalog is worth a listen, some of it even SFW (but not this one).
Riki Lindhome is pretty good on her own too.

Okay, I was sure I’ve mentioned this before, but there’s an awful lot of Canadian comedy music out there.
There was a time when any comedy song you found on the internet would probably turn out to be Canadian, once you’d solved the problem of it being misattributed. I’m not sure why it happened, there just seemed to be a bunch of Canadian music groups with a sense of humour at the same time.

{That’s his Humane Society mug shot. We knew we HAD to have him. The vet agreed he was most likely German Shepherd (Alsatian) x Airedale. He was only 8 wks old when we adopted him; he was an itty bitty Doglet. His nose barely reached the top edges of the couch cushions when he stretched his neck and poked his nosie in the air at us XD }

Perrey is one of my favorite early electronic/pop artists. He recorded the first or second electronic record I ever got, in about 1967: “The In Sound From Way Out.” My favorite from that album:
Years ago I made a short mp3 of this song to use as a ring tone in my cell phone. The trouble was that I never got any calls.
Another more recent tune he covered is The Typewriter Song by Leroy Anderson, a pretty funny song in it’s own right. First the orignal:
Perrey’s version from 2008
