Dana Carvey sings "Broccoli." 1986.

Lady Gaga's acoustic [sic] version of "Poker Face." 2010.

Put a fork in us -- we're done.

As to Gaga, that's embarrassing. Also, she's playing an electric piano, so it ain't really acoustic...; 11/24/2010 11:24 AM

Pretty sad when a "musician" doesn't know what "acoustic" means.

And, just for comparison's sake:

Say what you will about her, she grabs and keeps your attention.

I seriously doubt Gaga will be on anyone's radar when she's 52.

And my word is "driest" ...; 11/24/2010 11:41 AM

In my line of work, we use a lyophilizer (a.k.a. freeze-drier)...; 11/24/2010 12:22 PM
