A lot of that you could hear on the Dr. Demento show. Dead puppies aren't much fun, The Homecoming Queens got A gun, Spam, poisoning pigeons in the park just for some examples. Most were pretty good songs when they came out. Surprised Sha Na Na was not on there.

I'd say a few of these would stretch the meaning of novelty. Maybe half could be considered that, but I wouldn't count the two movie tie-ins, especially. Some of them would be more at home as one. hit wonders rather than novelty

No Homer & Jethro or Howard the Duck theme song. Some great songs here, though. John Cash The One on the Right was on the Left might fit, too. Oh, and Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer and You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch.

Not many from 2010 onwards makes me think today's artists take themselves a bit too seriously. Come on Ed Sheeran and Adele, write a song about the Smurfs or Paddington or something!

Edelweiss asked Abbas management for permission to copy their song. They said yes. Abba themselves only found out later and were furious but couldn't do anything by then

I was fortunate enough to hear Chuck Berry perform My Ding-A-Ling live in Jacksonville one time many years ago. Sometime around 2, 000.
