Subject: MarthaDTox Appreciation Week

Written By: 2nz on 02/15/04 at 10:04 p.m.

This week we are celebrating SuzieXbox... no, wait MariaW/Lox... MarcyOnFox... Oh, yes, MarthaDTox!! OK, it is really, REALLY important to the survival of my sanity that we lift Martha's average vote count over 3 votes per parody. With a contribution of 50 parodies, that's just not right, people. So far, Martha's most popular parody is aptly titled "Fairway to Heaven". Besides that, and maybe five other songs, I don't really know the original songs, so I'm gonna go out and learn some new music for this week. Let's get to it. And here's something I include for easy excess... er access:   http://www.amiright.com/parody/authors/marthadtox.shtml

I agree, there are some extremely good songs in there - and some surprises, too.

Good choice for an appreciation week, 2nz

Martha's stuff is GOOD!  Come on and check it out, folks, you'll be glad you did.

"Poisoned Chalice", Martha's parody of Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit", is particularly intriguing.  Cool stuff.

Hey Martha - ever think of doing some parodies of songs on the album "Blows Against The Empire" ?  Wanna collaborate?
I don't know how many votes parodies of those songs would get, but if you're familiar with that psychedelic acid-magnum-opus which was recorded in 1970 by a collaboration of members of Jefferson Airplane, Crosby Stills Nash, and The Grateful Dead...perhaps you might have some parody ideas for the songs on that album....I've kicked around a few fragments in the past but I haven't yet written or posted a complete parody of any of those songs....could be a pretty cool project.....that whole album is the quintessence of the 1960's/1970's political-protest-LSD-music-culture.....might be a lot of fun to parody!

Martha,

Congratulations on your week.  I'm not that familiar with some of the subject matter you write about, but I always enjoy reading your parodies.  I'm looking forward to reading more in the future.  Keep up the good work!
