silly music
Valerie Sassyfras
Valerie Sassyfras is a New Orleans musician who hit mainstream attention when her performance of “Girls Night Out” was featured on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She sings lines like “I’m horny and I’m lazy” while bending over and clutching her behind. It’s only when the YouTube video pans the crowd that we realize she’s performing in a backyard for a children’s party.
The Aquabats
The Aquabats are an American rock band easily identified by their masks and matching costumes. The Aquabats are perhaps most recognized for their comedic persona in which they claim to be crime-fighting superheroes. They even had their own show, The Aquabats Super Show, on The Hub.
Weird Al Yankovic
Weird Al Yankovic is a singer-songwriter known for his silly parodies and pastiches, scoring hit singles like “Amish Paradise” and “White & Nerdy”. He’s also starred film and television with UHF and The Weird Al Show respectively. Put on the glasses and mustache for his 80s look.
Bloodhound Gang
The Bloodhound Gang is a Philly band known for their juvenile lyrics. In the music video for The Bad Touch, they’re fittingly wearing monkey suits as they sing about being nothing but mammals.
What Does the Fox Say?
In The Fox, the Norwegian comedy duo Ylvis seeks to answer the age old question, “What Does the Fox Say?” Everyone already knows that “Dog goes woof, cat goes meow. Bird goes tweet, and mouse goes squeek.” But did you know that the fox goes “Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding! Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!” and sometimes even “Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!” or “Joff-tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!” Obviously.
