Dana Carvey Spoofs "The Needle & The Damage Done"
Comedian Dana Carvey did a spoof of Neil Young's "The Needle & The Damage Done" at the Oracle Conference in San Francisco last night.
It was pretty funny and I wish I had a clip to link to.
Basically, the lyrics went something like this:
"I've seen Larry Ellison and the damage done.
First to PeopleSoft and now to Siebel.
There's a little hostile take over in everyone
Every deal is like so much fun."
Well, maybe you had to be there?
If you're in the software business and like Neil, you were howling on the floor. (OK, yes, that was Thrasher.) If not, then this is pretty much inside baseball.
UPDATE: March 10, 2006 - While this MP3 isn't from the above performance, it's a little taste of Dana Carvey spoofin' Neil Young (link via stereogum).
