Music by Suno Monday: Rikki Tikki Tavi

I know the female vocalist is kind of a different choice, but just pretend that it’s Rikki’s ally, the female tailor-bird, singing: https://suno.com/song/9b369786-912d-41d6-aa94-9c456021ea54

Also none of the male versions that Suno generated really captured the menacing agility of Rikki the mongoose and Nag the cobra.

If you’re not familiar with the story, the Chuck Jones adaptation is pretty faithful, with word for word narration by Orson Welles, and can be viewed here: https://archive.org/details/rikkitikkitavi_201701

Weird Wednesday: Prisencolinensinainciusol

Okay, from a certain point of view, this should be kind of disturbing: an Italian singer, father of the actress who played the devil in Passion of the Christ, is practicing Babel-style confusion of tongues while his grimaces, imposing teeth and bad hair make him look a bit like Henry Blake, Sir Christopher Lee’s Hyde-style persona from I Monster.

But really, it’s just a fun parody of American style pop songs done with nonsense lyrics. Enjoy!
