music, silliness
Dammit, I used to have a list of songs that worked as Comedy Background Music for any given Youtube video.
Obviously, "Yakkity Sax" was one. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNBL5OMeuno) As well as my personal weapon of choice, "Bond Street" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3Vm2KoPsQE). But I had DOZENS of these.
And then we get into the classics, like "Entry of the Gladiators" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqIY3NfoYvw) and the "Saber Dance" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqg3l3r_DRI).
And Raymond Scott is a category of his own. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IniM_SafwYw) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNM0pgh4CiI)
And "French" should be its own category. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Shs2H9u6wak)
Anyone care to help me reconstruct the rest of this? Goofy hijinx music. Pony up.

Ooh, and the "Westerns"...

@zebratron2084 Have you tried the Tornadoes past 'Telstar'? eg, Pop Art Goes Mozart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfdpr5-hXeI
But I'm an easy touch for that Joe Meek sound.
Any given Meco cover would probably do, too, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJ3kV3Icm28 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8ZJUAAkdys

@Austin_Dern Ooh, thank you! That Meco cover art is STYLE GOALS. And that reminds me I should probably throw in Popcorn, too.
Favorite version by far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfNEeXkAZ4k

@zebratron2084 Despite the jovial tone and happiness inducing levity of "Bond Street", can I be at least mildly irked that the YouTube comments are a cavalcade of Family Guy references?

re: music, silliness
@Phorm Yes. Yes you can. It really annoys me that Stewie's "Sexy Dance Parties" were my introduction to it—almost as much as it annoys me that it's not even *on* most soundtracks to Casino Royale, and is replaced with a much inferior song.
But this kinda makes up for it. Bacharach is Bacharach! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl8w_A-e_h0
re: music, silliness
Ah, there, it's all coming back now. Then we have the "Harvey Birdman" category...
