Anybody remember Graham Parker? He was (actually, is) a great singer-songwriter of caustic pop who was (semi) popular during the late 70's thru the mid 80's. I've been a fan of his for years and yes, he is still at it. I mention it here because I ran across a site promoting his latest single (MP3) titled The End of Faith. Click over and check it out.
At the same time I also ran across something so surreal that I had to share it:
Shock the Monkey by Don Ho
Yes, you read that correctly... and it isn't too bad, actually.

Ok, that Don Ho thing is really...bizarre. At least it's not electric ukes and synthesized bongos. I think what makes it work is his almost deadpan nasal vocals. Made me think of how it might sound with Leon Redbone droning it out with his beat up old guitar instead of electronic music. Now THAT would be surreal!
