Some classics are "The girl with colitis goes by" and a couple from Queen's BoRhap: Is this the real life, or is this just Battersea?" and "The devil has a special sideboard for me".

A [b]very[/b] old favourite is "Our, father, which art in heaven. Harold be thy name".

[QUOTE=xilman;372427]"The devil has a special sideboard for me".[/QUOTE]That one requires a very implausible mangling of the song. I even tried playing the section while reading the line along with it and it just doesn't flow correctly at all.

[color=grey]BTW: Thanks for reminding me about that song. I haven't heard it in many years.[/color]

Note the interesting use of the tremelo.

Nothing really matters. Nothing really matters, but moi.

That last is from one of my [Url="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbbnjj_the-muppets-bohemian-rhapsody_fun"]favourite covers[/url] of the song.

[/QUOTE]Magnificent! Thanks for drawing it to my attention. Just listened to it on headphones. Now need to find a way of playing it through serious technology at >= 100dB

[color=grey]BTW: Thanks for reminding me about that song. I haven't heard it in many years.[/color][/QUOTE]May be British intonation or something. "a devil set aside for me" sounds very much like "a special sideboard for me" to me. BTW, apologies for mis-quoting (mis-remembering really) "The devil has" for "Beelzebub has".
