George Burns was in Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band which was based on the record done by the Beatles which George Harrison played in who sang My mind Set on you to which Al's song"This song is just six words long" parodies.

Good Charlotte.

Good Charlotte is a horrible band based out of Waldorf Maryland. They are only on MTV because they hosted the Rock Top Ten a few times. Thei songs include Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and So Unproductable. Neither of which desrve to be parodied or polkad. I had another idea earlier, but ti was late night and I was part asleep.

samuraisumo, you seem to have kind of thrown in the towel on Good Charlotte, so I'll take a turn.

Good Charlotte (which doesn't even have anybody in it named Charlotte-- I call that false advertising!) had a song called If You Leave on the soundtrack of Not Another Teen Movie, which also had 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger. 99 Red Balloons is the English translation of 99 Luftballons by Nena, which was polka'd by Al in "Hooked on Polkas."

Don Ho (we haven't done him already, have we?)
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

No we haven't. He has appeared on Johnny Carson just like Coolio whose Gangsters Paradise became Al's Amish Paradise.

I didn't throw in the towel. I just thought the game would go faster with hints. No hints for this one.

Big &Rich does their version of "Seven Spanish Angels" originally done by the duet of the late Ray Charles and Willie Nelson
Wilie also did a few duets with Waylon Jennings
Who was the narrator of Dukes of Hazzard
Which starred John Schneider
Who is on Smallville about a young Superman
plaed in movies by Christopher Reeves
who was good friends with Robin Williams
who started Comic relief where Al dueted with Richard Belzer.

Sorry, seven steps.

Anyone want a new target?

Are we allowed to use our own clues to advance the game??
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

I'd say ... yes. (but I'm in no way the authority on such things)

I only use clues if I accidently give a target that I think may be way too difficult. Unfortunately, I use country musicians and obscure actors, so many Al fans may not know many of them. I think Tom Arnold is simple enough to use.

P.S. I will not put down any clues. Honest.

les paul *(for those of you who don't know who he is, he invented the solid body electric guitar)*
I was elected to lead, not to read.
