30 Days of Music: Day 25

Morris Minor and the Majors – Stutter Rap (No Sleep Til Bedtime) (Youtube)

It’s a dangerous business, the parody record. There’s far too many of them out there, but this is one of the very few that actually make me laugh out loud.

It’s a dead on parody of the Beastie Boys from 1988, led by Tony Hawks of taking a fridge round Ireland fame. The vocal mannerisms are so accurate and that’s the main reason I find it as amusing as I do. Granted, there’s a lot of quite dated references in there, but the fact that it’s by a bunch of English comedians makes it funnier if anything.

Explaining why something is funny tends to take the fun out of it, so I’ll leave it to you to to enjoy. Always makes me giggle like a twelve year old.
