I remember when those Carl Stalling CDs first came out, I got it and tried listening to it while working and for some reason they made me feel weirdly anxious. Like maybe I thought an anvil was gonna drop on my head or something.

Muppets doing Jesus Christ Superstar is downloadable at 'name your own price'. Yeah - I went for it...

There are plenty of Simpsons or South Park songs that could probably fill an hour. But then, we've heard them all. Do or DIY would mean unknown songs from unknown places. 84% of people here don't know where Ukraine is.

In "The Muppet Movie" they're trying to make him sell out to a frog leg restaurant, but he has integrity and stands up to the bullies, and was ready to die for it, except that Animal saves him at the last minute. Sort of a similar Christ-like character.
