@3Pitous I guess we'll have to disagree about this. I didn't sense anything mean about the portrayals. They were parodying the stereotypes of the different types of folk acts, but you couldn't say that a certain character was supposed to be a particular actual person.

@dytakeda .. Respectful of folk music maybe but not of those who sings or sang it.Too much parody is a mark of lack of inventiveness.,I believe
-
@3Pitous I thought the whole movie was very respectful of folk music.

oeyesea is overplaying the double negative aspect, IMO.
People say, because they are stupid, that "I could care less!"
and everyone knows what they mean.
It means that they are stupid Americans (usually) whom don't care about their language.
That's about as much play I'll give the double negative in the song.
Common usage, perhaps with a little thought about that?

@erikvonriese Super obscure? Today's kids are rejecting death metal in droves - they say it's too intellectual - and Spın̈al Tap is filling the gap. As for the resemblance, it's an open secret that Spın̈al Tap was influenced by the The Folksmen's ability to merge image, style and music into a coherent whole. Like Alice Cooper, Gene Simmons and Lemmy, to name but a few, Spın̈al Tap would never admit to having had plastic surgery but the before and after pics tell their own story...

Main St singers made into a toothpaste commercial...

This parody is very hypocritical.You play it but you sing it as if you don't like it.Pity.

Isn't that a rip off of the Main Street Singers?

What's really funny is how long it takes some people to figure out this song is actually joke, he never went anywhere. Or maybe not if you really think about the double-negative. Never doing NO wanderings is actually always wandering. This is getting more confusing than cornwine.
