The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day: SKApril XVI

Reel Big Fish, "S.R." from Turn the Radio Off (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary: You know, in the almost twenty-nine years I've had Turn the Radio Off in my music library, I've never thought to look into the music of Suburban Rhythm. Maybe they should be part of next year's SKApril?
"Whatever happened the Suburban Rhythm?
Why did Ed and Scott quit?
Please don't go, Suburban Rhythm,
All the other bands are just shit!

"Well, they're Reel Big Fish and they got it made,
Because they signed up with a company that don't get paid,
I said they messed up all the lyrics and they got no style,
So, they gonna get it right, but it might take a while,
So, uh, don't touch that dial…"

Reel Big Fish, "S.R. (the Many Versions Of)" (live) from Our Live Album Is Better Than Your Live Album, Disc 1: More Shtick Than You Can Shake a Stick At (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary: Wherein the Fish try to improve "S.R." by playing punk rock, blues, disco, country, garage rock, old-school rap, death metal, & emo versions of the song.
