If you had told me, 10 years ago, that I would be unable to focus on the release of the new Guns N’ Roses album because I was transfixed by a song that was pretty much the equivalent of a Wesley Willis track about a popcorn-eating hamster sped up to 45 and attached to a video of said hamster performing that act–while on a piano key–I would have laughed. And yet, here we are. (And I don’t think the Wesley Willis comparison is all that inaccurate when you look at the other songs from Parry Gripp Song Of The Week, which have titles like “Cat Flushing A Toilet,” “Old Man Telling It Like It Is,” and “Chimpanzee Riding a Segway.” Parry Gripp’s repetoire of beats is a little wider than the late Chicagoan’s, but the intent, and the overall effect, are pretty similar at the core.)

The hedgehog is my favorite.
That hamster is way more charismatic than Axl Rose, and no braids.
Didn’t the anono-engineer say that using a vocorder was hard? A freaking rodent seems to have nailed it.
Somebody needs to do a version called “Hipster on a Piano” and use footage of a shirtless Ben Folds rolling around in a giant tub of popcorn…
Awesome.

Your beat repetoire is pretty limited when all you do is yell over the auto-play setting on a Technics KN1200 keyboard.
Parry Gripp’s music is the best thing I’ve heard in a long time. Seriously, the guy can sing.
@BawstonSean: Only if it is you rolling around on a piano with a PBR.

A little shaky – still popcorn – no worries.
Upside downy – still popcorn – no worries.
Fallen! – Gasp! No popcorn – worries! worries!
Ehm…to make this comment more relevant and less youtubeish…I don’t know, blablabla Axl Rose, blablabla mortage crisis, etc.
The Jonas Brothers need to cover this when I see them in Vegas next week.
