Dr. Demento's Final Top 100 List

We love Dr. Demento here at Beacon of Speech.

At first, we did the Top 10 Covers of Songs on the Dr. Demento Show.

Then we wrote about our Top 25 Songs That Were Played on the Dr. Demento Show.

Then we expanded the concept out to the Top 100 Novelty Songs of All Time.

But we are not Novelty Record experts, we are free speech stalwarts. The greatest champion of Novelty Music, Dr. Demento, retired this past weekend after 55 years on the air. On his last show, he created his last, and most definitive list: Top 100 Most Requested Songs on the Dr. Demento Show.

You can see the list and read about the methodology behind it at his website.

For those too lazy to click over, here's the reproduced list in a shadowbox with a spotlight over it.
