Skrillex music videos done in the style of the Keystone Kops.

Jedward do a cover of 'Gangnam Style' called 'Jedward Style'.

Over the Christmas holidays I very nearly did this. MEPHISTOPHELES' SPORK: An extreme metal band revolving around the throwing of cutlery down various flights of steps whilst shouting "SATAAAAN". The idea was to do this about 12 times and record an album.

there is a faint but unmistakable note of pride in that post and it is unwarranted.

I have been threatening a mash-up with 'Gang Bang' by Black Lace called 'Gang Bang Style'. I'll probably do it in a couple of years, when nobody remembers what 'Gangnam Style' even is.

I'd get Jedward to do a cover of 'Agadoo', although I don't think they could manage the complexity of the dance.

No, I'm good, thanks

dog latin, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 02:23 (thirteen years ago)

hmm i guess someone already thought of both of those

veryupsetmom (harbl), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 02:24 (thirteen years ago)

too bad, they are singularly terrible ideas

veryupsetmom (harbl), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 02:24 (thirteen years ago)

i thought of yam beer when i steamed some yams and forgot the yam water was sitting on the stove for a couple days. the steamer insert was in the pot so it didn't look dirty. it smelled yeasty when i dumped it out.

veryupsetmom (harbl), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 02:25 (thirteen years ago)

i'm a dirtbag

An album by Michael Bublé where he raps, titles 'Bublé Raps', and the cover is like The Pet Shop Boys 'Very', except it's actual bubble wrap.

A Pet Shop Boy's 'Very' era tribute band called 'Dunce to Disco'.

Manilowtica: the songs of Barry Manilow, rearranged in the style of Metallica but prominently featuring the melodica. Prompted by recognizing fundamental conceptual links between ''I Write The Songs'' and ''Sad But True.'' Unfortunately I haven't thought of any other songs for them to do unless ''Mandy'' and ''Blackened'' can be made to work.

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 3 March 2013 22:28 (thirteen years ago)

It might be a bit of a stretch, but maybe Manilowtica could perform a live mash-up of 'At The Copa (Copacabana)' and 'Enter Sandman'?

A UB40 tribute band called ES40.

Half of these sound like rappers. (snoball), Tuesday, 12 March 2013 09:48 (thirteen years ago)

The Top 40 Tour with E40, UB 40, 40Glocc, 40Cal and 36 other bands i'm unwilling to take the time to look up

Jean Forte?

40 Ounces To Freedom is probably a Sublime cover band...

Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 12 March 2013 19:59 (thirteen years ago)

okay, props on jean forte. maybe we can do this terrible idea collaboratively?

I read this with a lower case "s" and I was like "why would you assume that?"

space phwoar (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 12 March 2013 20:11 (thirteen years ago)

A Doctor Who rip off where everyone's favourite Time Lord is also a pimp. The show would be called 'Doctor Ho'.

Half of these sound like rappers. (snoball), Saturday, 16 March 2013 08:55 (thirteen years ago)

Also the show could feature knock-of Daleks who have soprano saxophones instead of ray guns. Their catchphrase would be "SAXTERMINATE!!!"

tea store called "Namastea"

☠ ☃ ☠ (mh), Tuesday, 19 March 2013 00:06 (thirteen years ago)

That HAS to exist, many times over. It would not surprise me if it was a brand of tea, either!

Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 19 March 2013 01:33 (thirteen years ago)

Tea blend, wannabe tea store, and etsy store looks like. Real tea store, maybe not!

I thought for sure there would be some youtubes of people doing aerobic dance routines to "Mother Sky" but apparently not.

and that sounds like a gong-concert (La Lechera), Tuesday, 19 March 2013 01:38 (thirteen years ago)

Whenever I hear "aerobics" I still remember my mom heading off to a class at the library in a leotard in the mid 80s

☠ ☃ ☠ (mh), Tuesday, 19 March 2013 01:39 (thirteen years ago)

That's what I mean, only instead of Jane Fonda ppl are working out to Mother Sky.

and that sounds like a gong-concert (La Lechera), Tuesday, 19 March 2013 01:41 (thirteen years ago)

my mum owned this and many others (yes including Jazzercise)

Mother Skyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

I did Jane Fonda workout in gym class in gradeschool. It was fun! If there were better music, it would be fun today.
Welcome to my terrible idea.
