Self-Simulacra
Self-Simulacra
#1
After reading a question about a self-simulacra song in the chapter 12 commentary thread, I had this song jump to my mind as the one to do it.
Weird Al's "I Think I'm A Clone Now"

As I said not too long ago over in the DW2 area, that's such a good suggestion that I'm going to have to add it to his repertoire. Thanks!

Worse, something from the musical stage production of "Jekyll and Hyde." The Evil Anti-Loon, anyone?

Alright! Stop that ROIT now! I object in the strongest terms possible! The Republican party is NOT a haven for fundamentalism! We have the problem relatively under control!

There is no fundamentalism in the Republican Party, and when we say there is no fundamentalism in the Republican Party, we mean that there is a little bit. [Image: smile.gif]

Michael J. Fox has no Looney Toons in him.

And now for my next trick, I will try to extract a useful power from "Debbie Gibson Is Pregnant (With My Two-Headed Love Child)". (Am I alone in remembering a video for this which starred Winona Ryder in a blonde wig as Debbie Gibson, cavorting about with Mojo?)

I wonder if the Presleytarians on Funkotron have demonized Michael J. Fox...
And how would it sound if we could get Mojo Nixon to talk like Mojo Jojo?

I don't recall it being Ryder, but I do remember the video. My second exposure to Mojo Nixon, followed by "Elvis is Everywhere" being on the Funny Five on the Dr. Demento Show (which I truly miss).

His next album "Root Hog or Die" contained the infamous song "Debbie Gibson is Pregnant with My Two-Headed Love Child" and the video featuring Winona Ryder was banned from MTV ending Nixons relationship with the music video channel.

Yup. I have "Debbie Gibson" on tape, and it savages MTV culture, pretty much. Mojo's opinion of MTV is that it was cool when it started, but when it got profitable and corporate, it ended up paying only bare lip service to the idea of being innovative and "alternative". Google (as I did) on "Mojo Nixon" and "Winona Ryder" and you'll find a few interviews with him where he minces no words.
