My favourite genre of music is novelty/comedy. I'm sort of random like that!

as an idiot child i got super into weird al, and my mother grew sick of it and tried to get me into spike jones (insert kneejerk internet response here, wild things are jackass music video fuck you). a lot of the jokes went over my head at the time, but it was fantastic in retrospect.

he's most famous (except for "all i want for christmas is my two front teeth," which is really hard to handle) for this lovely piece of wwII era cuteness (hitler cathexis)



but also of note is this, a huge pile of incredible racism



and this, an excellent exemplar of the importance of instrumentation in composition



Here's fifteen minutes of PURE TRANSPHOBIC HATE (TRIGGER WARNING: Milton Berle), live from NBC, thank you.



and here's the sort of moldering thing that ensured his cultural irrelevance around 1964, but it's also pretty perfect. a competent dixieland band hams it up as a shemp lookalike kicks himself in the face repeatedly, glenn miller in the background with a frantically grinning awkward tap dancer (no nicholas brothers here, this is cask strength caucasiana), two fast paced novelty instrument duo concerti, and a classic example of anti-russian drollitude at 9:28

that is a clip from "ode to the dawn of man" a documentary of the making of the music in "cave of forgotten dreams" a documentary about the paintings in the Chauvet cave that was directed and narrated by Werner Herzog.
