I didn't find it funny but it was entertaining. I can respect any musician that do all of those shenanigans and still play a song. It definitely is corny!

I enjoyed that. Spike Jones and his City Slickers were the tops at this kind of spoof, parodies like "Cocktails for Two," or "You Always Hurt the One You Love" (complete with gunshots and screams).

I've loved the Korn Kobblers for years, especially their kiddie recordings:

Sad to say that music videos haven't really gotten any better.

Spike Jones was a genius. I won a talent show lip synching to Chloe when I was a Cub Scout.
