"Ban Normal Ad" originally "Dan Abnormal," Blur
Submitted by: Salvador Dali Parton

Why the Name is Stupid:

Vomit Remnants
I saw an anagram of its name posted om amiright, and I thought someone MUST be joking in implying that there really is such a band. But I looked it up and sure enough, there is a Japanese death metal band with just that name! The best I can say for them is that I hope they don't know English well enough to know what their name means. What can I say about the name beyond what it speaks for itself? Just trust me, if something is too gross for me, it is just TOO GROSS! Submitted by: Terror Reid

British Bullcrap

Song Lyrics That Mention Other Songs:

"When You Dream" by Barenaked Ladies
The Song Lyrics:
Do you hear noises just
loud enough to be perceived?
Do you hear Del Shannon's "Runaway" playing
on transistor radio waves?
With so little experience,
you mind not yet cognizant
Are you wise behind your few days?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
Song They Mention:
A direct reference to "Runaway" by Del Shannon
Submitted by: Tania WYEP
