"I can't believe there's only one other review for this album. Richard Cheese is the sickness! I've only heard two of his albums (the other one has covers of NIN's Closer and Nirvana's Rape Me), but this one's my favorite simply for the first 8 tracks. Hilarious. His covers of Baby Got Back, Down with the Sickness, Shake Yo A**, and Fell in Love with a Girl (bad scatting at its best) make me giggle madly. And I love his smooth, smarmy voice.
If you like to get a little silly with your music sometimes, if Weird Al Yankovic has ever made you smile, or you thought Gunther's Ding Ding Dong song was funny, you'll get this. Sooo much fun!"
Only the best

"I just love Richard Cheese! His renditions on these classic songs are a crack up. I listen to a lot of the original songs that he covers so it just makes it funnier for me to hear his versions. Especially "Down With the Sickness" which actually plays at the very end of the comedic movie Shaun of the Dead (They put Dawn of the Dead on the track listing, which really wouldn't make sense if it were correct). Not only does he do a great job of turning the majority of these alternative rock songs into some great swingy jazz lounge music but he can belch out some great notes! Just for S & G's give this album a listening to, I'm positive you'll laugh!"
Just buy it!!!
