Maybe he can get humour artists to do that, like Luke-Ski or Those two fellows who have been on Dr. D non-stop for a couple weeks now.

Eh. No offense to those Dr. D artists, but if this did happen, I'd much prefer Al use actual celebrities, even C or D list celebrities. Luke-Ski and those lot are okay, but to be honest, I don't think any of them could hold their own enough to sing alongside Al.

Now, what would be interesting is if Al employed the help of Bob Rivers and his radio crew. If you're at all familiar with Rivers, he and his crew do DEAD-ON impersonations of the artists they parody. In fact, I think as far as duplicating the SOUND of an original they are the only ones I've ever heard who can rival Al. Now, the quality of their jokes, on the other hand, that's a whole separate matter.

Luke Ski's not really a name outside of Dr. D either. So the joke would be over so many people's heads if that were the case.
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Get back to us when Luke-Ski books a show at the Greek.
I've met Luke and he's a good guy, and he also knows where he stands in relation to Al.
This means something. This is important.

:lol:

I was trying to think of a really polite way to say something just like that.

Of course, assuming that this is a multi-impression kind of song, there's no reason Al couldn't recruit voice artists he knows like Tress MacNeille or Billy West.

Ha! I would love to hear Trey come in on the song (almost Springsteen-style, from WATW) in his DVDA singing voice!

No, but Michael McKean of Spinal Tap did appear on TWAS.
