The New Pornographers' Challenge You To Get "Weird Al" With Their Tunes
Who's been working on their Michael McDonald'd New Pornos covers? Just in case's those trademark vocals are a bit outside your range, the Pornographers have one again thrown the gauntlet, but this time the only limitation is your acuity of wit.
Bleeding farts funnier than leaving farts? Agreed. Now, we wanna see you guys enter, so if a Stereogum reader wins the challenge, we'll sweeten the Pornos iPhone prize package by independently sending you a "Weird Al" DVD. As mentioned last time, same goes for the Michael McDonald contest. Size up the competition by peeping the entries thus far...
Some aspiring Michael McDonalds...
"The Bleeding Heart Show"
"Testament To Youth In Verse"
"Sing Me Spanish Techno"
"Sing Me Spanish Techno"
Here's the only "Weird Al" entry so far...
"My Head Of Lice," To The Tune Of "Fake Headlines"
The MM field's looking ripe...
