New Thanksgiving Day songs

There really aren't a lot of songs for Thanksgiving. Oh sure, there are some Thank You songs, (thanks Natalie Merchant, Led Zeppelin, etc), but not a lot about the holiday that involves gorging ourselves and then incidentally giving thanks and acknowledging the Pilgrims and Squanto.

So late night talk show host Jimmy Fallon had a cute idea on twitter the other day. Create new Thanksgiving songs out of old ones. I came up with a few that I "tweeted" in hopes of getting some fame on his show. Of course I don't stay up that late so I don't know if any of these were used, or how.

And I'll admit in advance that Mike helped me with these, and I just outright stole some of them from other folks in the twitterverse, or whatever it's called.

1. I Want To Hold Your Yams.

2. Sweet Potato Child of Mine

3.It's Not Easy Being Green Bean Casserole

4.Cranberry Beret

5. Three Times a Gravy

World's Worst iPod: Torn Between Two Lovers by Mary MacGregor
Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Kitty used to be a Goth--almost
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture. I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons. 1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels. 2) I used to...

World's Worst iPod: Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...

World's Worst iPod: It's a Miracle by Barry Manilow
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
