Knights of the Round Table

Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin & cast in Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975).

The Penis Song

Eric Idle in Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, 1983.

RIP Michael Jackson

We don't normally post straight music videos around here, but today is an obvious exception.



Blame It On The Boogie by The Jacksons (miscredited on You Tube) off the 1978 Destiny album. This was my first favorite song, when I was four years old (and still one of my all time favorites).

And in my opinion, this is still the greatest music video ever made: Thriller

More favorites:
Beat It
PYT
Smooth Criminal

Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Eric Idle & cast in Life of Brian, 1979.

Live Organ Transplants/The Galaxy Song

Eric Idle, Terry Jones, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam & Graham Chapman in Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983).

One of my favorite bits from one of my favorite movies.

Every Sperm is Sacred

Michael Palin & Terry Jones in Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983).

The Lumberjack Song

I love when TV shows feature musical numbers as long as they're done right. Monty Python here, segues from the Homicidal Barber sketch to the Lumberjack Song. Palin's knee-slapping, gum chewing delivery is perfect.
