I found this... umm.... interesting cover of a Billboard #1 hit song from 1992.

To get the full impact, don't look at your MP3 player to see the title. Just click the link, listen, and see how long it takes you to figure it out.

The cover is by Jonathan Coulton.

Richard Cheese is pretty funny, but I find his use of vulgar language to be a bit above and beyond what is needed a lot of the time. I'm not a person to be offended by language by any means. (I've enjoyed too many South Park songs to be accused of that), but there are times I listen to Cheese's stuff and think, "He didn't need that rash of swearing there, it'd have been just as funny without it."
