Publisher's Synopsis
Sure to make you laugh and lift you up, 21st Century Oldies is a collection of parody lyrics about current events set to the tunes of familiar favorites. The entries give playful new life to songs we all know while spinning the sometimes difficult or troubling current state of affairs into something more approachable and fun. The lyrics in Volume 3 sing with hope and humor about the 2016 U.S. Presidential race. While this volume is from the viewpoint of summer 2016, everyone should be able to identify with the subject matter, even if you're first reading this book long after the November 2016 election. So pull out your iPhone or mp3 player, and get ready to sing along. Musical inspiration in this volume comes from popular songs by a wide range of artists, from Beyonce, Olivia Newton John, Herman's Hermits, The Association, Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson, to stage and film giants like Mel Brooks, Jerry Herman, Irving Berlin and Jule Styne.
