Bad Songs #5: "Who Are Parents?" by The Shaggs

I guess if it weren't for a few well known musicians like Kurt Cobaine and Frank Zappa proclaiming their love for The Shaggs, you wouldn't be reading this post right now.  They would've been lost to the sands of time like so many other unknown acts of their era.

I have to believe the "respect" given to The Shaggs is more akin to the "respect" given to someone like Ed Wood, Jr.  Their creative product is so overwhelmingly bad that it becomes endearing. 

I don't own their 1969 album, Philosophy of the World, so we'll use the mp3 provided by the wonderful music blog The Rising Storm.  The song is called "Who Are Parents?".  Enjoy.
