Did anybody ever try this idea?

[BrightStar]

Taking Mother Goose Rhymes, and putting them to Rock , Metal, or Pop Music?

It seems stupid, but its actually a cool idea.

[ForrestBlack]

Yes, it has been done. Some good, some bad.

[BrightStar]

Know where I can find some good examples?

They have horrible versions on Nickolodeon, etc, but I am seeking cool versions.

Side note: I have Are you sleeping Brother John, put to Smooth Criminal's beat stuck in My mind currently.

[ForrestBlack]

That is fucked up.

[BrightStar]

That is fucked up.

[One Eyed Cat]

Aesop's Fables would be good, too. It has also been done, but you'd have a lot of material to work with.

How did they do Aesop's fables into those? That seems interesting.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! *Gets flashbacks of Aesop & Son, and Mr. Peabody!*

[One Eyed Cat]

There have been a few musical adaptations of Aesop. The Smothers Brother did some back in the 60s. A few adaptations for Broadway and songs for children. Not much by way of "rock" music, altho there was a band called Aesop's Fables in the 60s.

Smothers Brothers! Wasnt that the show with "Sock it to Me."? They also had Nixon there I think!*

[Morning Glory]

yeah, when I was a kid they had this bizare version of it that was like hip-hop urbanized. they did that a lot in the 80's...

thank god for gangsta rap...
187 on a muthafuckin cop!

OG, nigga. I dunno, it all seems pretty silly to me. I question more of the rap lore I hear. I'm sure the reports of killings and church burnings in the norwegian blackmetal scene are pretty over-blown as well. People need to create a feeling of extremeness. It makes things more interesting, but isn't all that veracious.

[SindelChaos]

Uh Korn has done it. I don't particularly like them, but I've heard it. The song is called Shoots and Ladders. I've made some really raunchy versions of nursery rhymes. I'll spare everyone.

[Camby Savelle]

^^^what I was about to say...Korn

[DharmaLion]

I always thought that Grimm's neaded a beat.

[Zoe_Zoebaboe]

Andrew Dice Clay tried...hehe
