Honest to God. Apparently, noone in Welk's camp knew what 'Toke' meant and assumed since the song mentions Jesus it's religious in nature.

This is from the comments. Take it with a grain of salt, if you wish :

Quote:
Several years ago, I had a chance to meet with a few alumni of Welk's orchestra. I asked them about this. They said that Lawrence Welk most definitely knew what he was doing here. And Myron Floren's "choking" in the intro was not an accident, either. By their accounts, Welk had a "wicked sense of humor" and often threw in asides like this one to see if anyone got it. Sadly, many took it at face value and missed the point. But according to those who were there, this was deliberate. Genius!

Well, okay...

I am a bit dubious. Welk was reportedly so conservative he fired a popular female singer for inadvertantly flashing a knee and had his various female performers conceal their pregnancies behind props and costumes. He was also reportedly very concerned about not offending his little old lady audience.

But still, they were there and I wasn't, so...

Note: When I looked this up on Youtube, among the other Osmond videos listed in the sidebar the site listed was a clip of llamas mating.

(Forgot the punchline...)

This actually makes perfect sense to me. "If you enjoy the song-stylings of Jimmy Osmond, you will probably also enjoy watching llamas copulate."

The combination of Chris Cunningham and Aphex Twin is usually pretty amazing. And disturbing. "Windowlicker" is my favorite, and "Come To Daddy" is great too.

Here's Windowlicker. The setup is a bit long, but I think it's worth it. If you're impatient, start watching at about 3:30. Richard James is a seriously weird and creepy genius.

From the vid's description:
Quote:
After flying up into the mountains for a hike
in the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness we were planning on
flying to a small mountain town for dinner. Due to warming
temperatures we had a hard time gaining altitude. After taking off we
hit an air pocket that made us rapidly loose altitude, pushing us down
into the trees.
