I have this record. It's terrible. But there's something poignant and hilarious about the cover- it's like he's thinking "get me outta here".

didn't Beck bite this for one of his songs?

OOH that's one's awesome! Yes for the intro to "Sissyneck". The actual song is some really awesome cheesy 60s go-go dance music.

we can't forget Gershon Kingsley, another moog master and composer of 'Popcorn'

Did not know about this guy. Thought the Hot Butter version was the original. Thanks for the info.

Hot Butter version is better than Kingsley's original though.

Current 93 start their live shows with a loop of Hot Butter that never modulates, just the opening riff over and over, it's really maddening and funny.

Robbie Fulks has a bit in one of his songs where the other players play some outside solos and then he basically plays the melody of "Popcorn."

Here's a fun Finnish vocal version of "Popcorn" by the vocal group Seidat:

This is a good later UK entry with more of a glam leaning and a good original in Jungle Juice.
