The Friday Night Parkdale Special
Music:Music History
This week, we're checking out the fun little genre, novelty songs. It has a few subgenres, but we're mostly going to keep it broad for now. Be cautioned that some of the songs have themes that some may find to be in poor taste, and the Frank Zappa one contains a slur.
