I'm not too proud to admit it.
I had never until today looked up the history/origin/background of Björk's "It's Oh So Quiet."

I knew vaguely it wasn't like a 100% Björk original or had some other associations, etc…

And god damn. If it doesn't make EVERYTHING MAKE SENSE that this was first a big hit for Betty Hutton. Context, context, context. I get it now. I get it. I pretended to get it before. I actually get it now.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Dr. Demento Presents: The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time (Volume III - The 1960s)
1985 U.S. pressing

Some late night chuckles for last spin of the night.

All the hilarious usual suspects of the novelty realm are here; Tiny Tim, Bryan Hyland, Napoleon XIV, The Trashmen, and my personal favorite, Ray Stevens’ sublimely absurd “Guitarzan”!

I believe Dr. Demento did God’s work, and was a king among men. Someone needs to make a legit biopic on him NOT starring Rainn Wilson.

UNKNOWN ARTIST
Hey Baby, Its The Crepitation Contest (No Sh*t!)

THIS is why being a vinyl collector is awesome. WHERE ELSE could I have discovered something like this?

What is it you ask?

A comedy album about farting.
That’s all.
Nothing more, nothing less.
👃 💩

I’ll see myself out.
