The Lyrics

blah blah blah, rate n comment pls, the reaosn for a comma is to take a breath, then if u do ull comprnde pacin
Fed up of VCR they're just Twenty 02
Got a new Disc player, cos I'm richer than you
I first had a red laser but now I have blue
Oh-a oh

Used a credit card to pay for my DVD
An excellent machine and great technology
I even wrote a congrats letter to Sony
Oh-a oh

My Children love it

Oh-a oh

And so I know think

DVD killed, the VCR
DVD killed, the VCR

Digital Versatile Disks
Oh-a-a-a oh

And know I am throwing out all my videos
But then I remember than not so long ago
VCR was overtaking the Radio
Oh-a oh

DVD is cool
Oh-a oh

Yeah tis really cool

DVD killed, the VCR
DVD killed, the VCR

DVD killed, the VCR
DVD killed, the VCR
no comments from DAK pls

Fun concept! Favorite line: "I first had a red laser but now I have blue" .

Don't you hate planned obsolescence?

You're on top form lately, Josh. You've made two really good parodies over the weekend. All I can say is congrats! 455

Good, a bit off pacing though. I think you should have somehow extended the chorus's line... but otherwise, great parody!
Josh 2 - April 04, 2005 - Report this comment
if you see, i put a comma, so take a breath (which commas signify) n then go into the next bit
Tony - April 04, 2005 - Report this comment
Good idea. Sorry, the comma explanation doesn't work -- a comma deos not represent a rhythmic beat. Besides, sung the way you suggested, the accents would still be off. But nice parody.

I better pacing fit would have been "DVD killed my old VCR"
Josh 2 - April 04, 2005 - Report this comment
um...... nah

Awesome concept, carried out pretty well. You do need a better chorus, though, the pacing is pretty lousy.

Pretty Good, but im sure you could have come up with a better line than "DVD Is cool"
Josh 2 - December 04, 2005 - Report this comment
Are you denying the fact that DVD's are cool? lol

Well, VCR is still viable for all of those old movies which in all likelyhood will not be re-released on DVD. Good write up.

I don't think the DVD has killed VCRs, but this parody is good anyway.

(Classic tourney) Pacing off through most of this.
Jeff Reuben - January 16, 2006 - Report this comment
Classic--I'm thinking you can stretch one of the syllables (DVD killed the V...E...C-R) to make the pacing in the title work if you sing it. Decent song.
Matthias - January 16, 2006 - Report this comment
(Classic) Funny, but the pacing was pretty darn off...
Larry - January 17, 2006 - Report this comment
Classic- Kinda funny.
Johnny D - January 21, 2006 - Report this comment
(Classic) Witty and timely.

Great concept, but with the pacing is a bit messy. 4-5-5
