Fun Internet Music

Now it’s time for a round of “one song to the tune of another”

No, it’s not time for “I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue“, I just wanted to record a site which I found recently (almost certainly via BoingBoing.) It’s a site dedicated to cheesy records and compilations which are no longer available, and it’s called Way Out Junk. There are MP3 files available for download and some of it’s terrific. I’m currently enjoying:

And of course, let’s not forget the inimitable Hayseed Dixie whose reworkings of AC/DC and other groups hits in a bluegrass styleee are incredible.

My Winter Musical Mystery

Jack Frost FlyerBack when I was about 9 years old I took part in a musical at school and I can’t for the life of me remember the name. I think I was some kind of elf – it was my first and last experience with makeup and I hated all the work taking it off. I remember 2 things:
Euan Morton played the lead role of Jack Frost, and I remember one of the songs

Dear Santa Claus please bring to me,
A great big shining Christmas tree,
A three wheeled bike. a model plane,
A cowboy suit and a stream-line train,
A baseball bat and a catcher's mit,
A hunting knife and a cooking kit,
And fill my stocking to the top,
I think that's all so I will stop.

Google doesn’t know the lyrics, so I felt I should share with the world (don’t think you would like to hear me sing them.)
