Advantages: funny, entertaining Disadvantages: may offend some people
...those novelty albums, you know the ones where you hear the tune correctly but the words have been replaced Weird Al Yankovic is a popular name in the world of parodies. Until 5 years ago I was not a fan of these songs, in fact I had never heard them. I think the first song I heard was 'Which Backstreet Boy is Gay' which had me in fits of laughter. I was in a mate's car one night, he was evidently into this type of music and was listening to a rather ... ...young age and was into the parodies of Allan Sherman. Anyway Weird Al Yankovic has grown up today to be one of those artists you either love - or hate. Personally I have quite a liking towards his music they never fail to make me giggle so are perfect for that rainy, depressing day where you need a slight chuckle. *****OTHER SONGS*****
I am not going to go into all of them on here because this is a review about the 'food' album. I will give you ...
Advantages: Just too funny for words Disadvantages: Absolutely none!
Well what can one say about this great British comedian other than "Hello Playmates"
I am 59 yrs of age and I "grew up" with the comedy talent of such comedians as Arthur Askey and Max Miller. If you want to hear true British comedy instead of the drivel they put out to day, and have the nerve to call Alternative Comedy, Sometimes I can be, and I have to say at this juncture "accidentally watching" some of this rubbish, and some of the audience ... ...most times with the opinion of "What on earth was funny about that or what are they laughing at?" Like I said if you want a true Britsih laugh then rush out and buy this CD "You will laugh till the tears run down your legs!" ...
Advantages: You can turn this one all the way up to 11. Disadvantages: Unfortunately this is not a real band.
...British heavy metal band released this collection of songs from the albums soundtrack as homage to the “Smell the Glove” album that they were promoting through the film. Due to the album being released as a soundtrack it never really received any great success chart wise and was mainly just purchased by those who, like me are great fans of the film. Now firstly let me start by saying that if you haven’t seen the film that accompanies this album it ... ...at least after you’ve read this anyway.)
Like I’ve said the band themselves are completely factious everything from who they are to their previous career which was made up only for the purpose of the film.
Just who are “Tap”?
The main members of the band consist of some quite well known American actors, that’s right I did just type American as once you hear them talking in the film or singing on this album you would swear they where English.
...
Advantages: Buy this to listen to TWO great nostalgic songs. Disadvantages: There are 20 awful songs as well!
...And My Gal" is also very good. In between, most of the other songs are slow tempo dreary sounding ballads set to mediocre string arrangements or very forgettable massively dated sounding ditty ballads accompanied by big band brass based arrangements. There are also a few cringe worthy duets that are also totally forgettable and some other rubbish songs where the instrumentation is just light percussion and a double bass. Many of the songs on this ... ...the 1950s. He is an iconic figure to this day in Albania. This is because his films were the only Western culture films that were permitted to be shown in Albania during the dictatorship of Enver Hoxha. If we were back in the days of the Cassette listening to this album would be torturous as you'd be constantly fast forwarding the tape. However, because this is a CD it’s an album worth having just to be able to play "Don't Laugh At Me (Cause I'm ...
Advantages: Great band, great vocals and music. Disadvantages: Some weak links
...Kyle Gass who make up Tenacious D, you shouldn't give a crap about much, especially bad language etc. If you are this person, like me then this CD is for you. I have no edited the lyrics so there will be some swear words there. Just a warning. The Album
A brilliant album, which isn't for everyone, this is why: Track 1- Keilbasa
Even the first lines of the song show you that they don't care, it's showing them coming up with a song, ... ...this song got me into Tenacious D, such a brilliant song. Jack starts off just talking, with Kyle playing a great riff, there's some singing but it's mainly a spoken song. This song was their first UK release and this is what got them their success, and rightly so. The lyrics are amazing, and the fact that they managed to get the likes of Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters (and Nivarna), shows their success. This song is just tongue in cheek throughout ...
fun, addictive, pick up and play anywhere! (*)
