Usually you come here for information about my awesome novels (wink wink) and on Mondays you find some great music to write by. So why not do a little more music today? Except that I’ll feature my favorite humor songs.
First off Lazy Sunday, the song that basically put The Lonely Island on the map as a band (as opposed to a SNL skit). It’s kind of stupid but it’s so catchy and inane that you just want to listen to it over and over again.
Comedian Jon Lajoie hails from my hometown so it was great to see him become a YouTube superstar. He has an entire catalogue of awesomeness to pick from but I have a soft spot for Everyday Normal Guy. Maybe someday I’ll feature more of him.
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story was a crazy spoof of the Ray Charles and Johnny Cash biopics but it also did a pretty good job of providing a history of pop music through the last 50 years. Here we have John C. Reilly singing this crazy song Royal Jelly, channeling the indecipherable ramblings of Bob Dylan.
