because this morning i've been laughing too much at the beginning of daydream believer -

Chip: â€œ7A.â€?
Davy: â€œWhat number is this Chip?â€?
Monkees: â€œ7A!â€?
Davy: â€œOkay, donâ€™t mean it, donâ€™t get excited man. Itâ€™s â€™cause Iâ€™m short, I know.â€?

On a live version of The Gift by VU â€“ at the line about "she needed him and he wasn't there â€“ ahhh" the whole audience also goes "ahhh" and it's kinda funny

Renegade Soundwave - Kray Twins (the chicken noises/vocal impersonation of a guitar solo)

The whole of Prince's Bob George.

"For someone who can't stand them TV dinners you sure eat enough of them motherfuckers."

'Whaddya mean worworwor? I said COURT IN SESSION!' off the first Specials album, forget the track

Anthony Newley in Pop Goes the Weasel:

Whey did the Weasel go pop? ...because they upped the price of tuppeny rice to fourpence.

If you've heard the track, you'll know why it's funny. It doesn't really translate into the written word.

Also, the Would-Be-Goods' pastiche of the Leader of the Pack intro in Marvwlous Boy:

I saw him in the patisserie, by the eclairs...

Not sure if this counts, but the part in Viv Stanshall's "Sir Henry at Rawlinson's End": "You could see everything from the top of that bus... We were in Regent Street and I was looking right in on Brainwashing House. I could see them all running around inside, catching diseases and giggling. My father leant across to me and said, 'You'll end up there if you don't stop playing with yourself,' and handed me a rosary. He died of chrysanthemum poisoning.... They had to... kill... all his plants. You know, he was the REAL author of 'A Pictorial History of Gargling,' a very great work." I've heard that ten or twenty times and I still laugh at it every time.

Art Brut - Good Weekend

"So, we went to the cinema, we came home from the cinema
We went through the front door, up the stairs, through the bedroom door, onto the bedroom floor
I’ve seen her naked twice, I’ve seen her naked twice! "

And several other bits of the album.

The chorus of The Fall's "A New Face In Hell".
Best cracked falsetto ever.

― D.V. Caputo, Wednesday, 18 January 2006 00:16 (twenty years ago)

the "using you using you" refrain in the cymbaline's "matrimonial fears"

― jim p. irrelevant (electricsound), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 00:18 (twenty years ago)

"And we're coming to the chorus now.."

― Harrison Barr (Petar), Thursday, 19 January 2006 01:46 (twenty years ago)

Wah guitar solo in REM's "Stand."

― Austin Still (Austin, Still), Thursday, 19 January 2006 02:30 (twenty years ago)

Gloria Balsam's Fluffy- the entire record, if I can stand the whole thing.

― Chantilly Bass (ChantillyBass), Thursday, 19 January 2006 03:42 (twenty years ago)

So far today: Culturcide's "Bruce" (snickering through entire song, thanks to whoever shared that) and Gang of Four's "Is It Love" (cackle of incredulity @ intro).

Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cereberal fitness
This grips me more than would a muddy river
Or declining buddha

Thank god I'm only watching the game
Controlling it

I don't see you guys waging
The kind of maiden I'm contemplating
I bet you'd watch
I would invite you
But the queens we use
would not excite you

So you better go back to your bars, your temples
Your mah-sahge parlors
