PASS. THE. MASH!

I didn't know that but there is a related running joke on the Comedy Bang Bang podcast. Comedian Nick Wiger comes by on Halloween and plays the writer of Monster Mash Leo Carpazzi (a spoof of the real writer Leonard Capizzi).

He claims the studio didn't like the first version of the song so he had to rewrite it. The first Halloween on the show, he sang it and it turned out to be called Monster Fuck and was a filthy song about monsters having an orgy.

For many years after that, he returned on Halloween to sing a "completely new song"... which always turned out to be the same song with a couple words changed.

There are some ridiculous songs on this album.

I think I did hear a version where they insert the opening breakdown of Stairway, IIRC after the "grass doth grow" line.

For a moment I thought that GIF had sound, but it was just in my head.

Yeah I think Stairway was a big part of the original inspiration and then they retconned it to be about Beelzeboss for the sake of the movie

Their monster mash would kill you, traveler. You can't handle their monster mash.

waa wooo

False.

It's a blitz.

... a ballroom blitz.

It’s the Mashed Potato

This is what the Moster Mash is parodying.

I started reading this as Bobby Picket and then transitioned to JB.

Its not about the sexing?

Ooh mau mau, ooh mau mau–mau

Consider yourself blessed by the D.

The trashmen were a gift to humanity.

Watch the video of the song, you didn't think it could get better, but you were mistaken.

He could have just been stomping everything into puree like godzilla.

Sounds like Friday night

Agreed. Thanks.

It was a graveyard fuck.

This is not the Monster Mash. This is just a tribute.
