It's Still Billy Joel to Me? Come on, even I have that one.

It's for download on soundwaveamerica, or something. There's a link to it on www.yankovic.org

I was referring to a Crazy Cow Therapy/Therapist? song mentioned in Song of the Day :)

When I first set down to play with it I noticed it was impossible. The pitch it's in doesn't exist as a note on the accordion. So I went to the closest key it sounded like, which is C. So, my cover is in the key of C.

I pretty sure my accordion is in pitch, accordion have metal reeds, so they can go 20-30 years without needing tuned. I've had mine for almost 10 years, it's never been tuned. When I match a note to a keyboard it sounds exactly the same.

I never listened to the Dr. D show, and I have only heard of a few of those songs through Dementia Radio, and I've never heard of those Al songs. They don't sound like songs Al would do, and due to a lack of seeders I can't download them to find out. Can anyone confirm?

The Not Al Page has Bimbo #5 and Cat In The Kettle, but not Bitchney Spears [further reading of The List revealed this is the incorrect name for Make My Boobies One More Size, which is on The List]

I think it was just the fact that they were taken from the Dr. Demento Show that threw me. I guess the artist wasn't listed, or they couldn't remember who it was, so they just put Al as the artist
