My Dick's Double Full​-​Length Release is an album of modified covers, with hits from the 70s-90s. Includes songs like Dancing In My Dick, Fields of Dick, Do They Know It's My Dick?, Baker Dick, and (my favourite) Orinoco Dick. Interview with the band. (possibly NSFW)

No "Can I Smell Yo Dick?"

Ah yes. I was made aware of this a few days ago. The... um....saxophone refrain from Baker Dick was stuck in my head this very morning.


Orinoco Dick has a special place in my dick heart because when I was eighteen and making poor decisions about relationships I dated a particularly smarmy douchetruck whose romancin' music of choice was... Enya. So for him, that's pretty much what that song was about.

This post contains less Mickey Avalon than I had originally hoped.

saxophone refrain from Baker Dick

I lost it. In tears. I am so disappointed in myself.

During the first two summers when I was an undergrad I worked at a warehouse, packing boxes and loading trucks. The local classic rock station played constantly and workplace conversation had basically two modes

1. Dick based jokes regarding whatever past hit was playing at the time.

2. Waving a cigarette around while talking about how you were the only one who knew how to do the job properly.

If you're interested in simulating these two formative summers of my life here is what you should do: Load boxes into the back of your car or truck and have this album is playing. Have a friend stand behind you, about a yard away, gesticulating with a cigarette and quizzically shouting "you know what I think about how they do things!?"

So, yes, I found this to be an odd combination of hilarious and nostalgic.

Ha, more like nostalgdick!

Some of these have the same problem as Shakespoope a few posts back, which is that the dick/poop:original text ratio is a little too high.

On the other hand, I nearly hurt myself with the way I was laughing more and more with each progressive "dick" in the Springsteen lyric "wanna change my dick, my dick, my dick".

Also I feel like this is just the actualization of something that I do all the time on my own, like when I walked around the house singing "what a bright time, it's the right time/ to punch you in the face/ jingle bell time, is a swell time/ to go punching people in the face."

Now I want to hear them do a cover of "Punch 'Em In The Dick", written by MeFi's Own mediocre. Although I don't know if they'd be able to add more dicks to it...

Actually, let me revise my statement. I am most disappointed in myself because this is the sort of thing that I ought to have done in my life, but haven't. I was in a band that sang songs about sodomizing Satan and eating semen frittatas and yet ... never this.

I do have to say, I never thought I would see My Dick on the front page of Metafilter.

"Tonight thank God it's my dick instead of youuuuuu"

"When I was down/My dick was your clown"

"Just for fun my dick says, 'Get a job'..."

Yes, I too am 47 going on 12.

I can't believe they didn't include that million-selling '70s novelty record: Disco Dick.

"Would you know my dick, if you saw it in heaven?"

That's just so wrong

The sax bit in Baker Dick is indeed amazing. But what really got me was the downward-sliding guitar chord during the sax solo ("diiiiiiiiiiiick..."). Now that's attention to detail.

YES! The world needs way way way more dick!
This is a trend I'd like to see keep going.

I once did one of those "What is your style of humour" quizzes, and it said I liked "clean, dark, sophisticated humour."

This is none of those things. And yet I was giggling when I got to "Fields of Dick" and totally lost it at "Dick in Heaven."

Well played, My Dick. Well played. You have bested me. For now.

Let me take this opportunity to ask (again) what happened to Dickipedia? It was great, and now it's gone. Searches for it lead to Huffington Post lameness.

I just shared My Dick on Facebook!

Been rocking this album for weeks but was too chicken to post about it on the blue.

After extensive analysis, I've decided that "Dancing in My Dick" is the funniest track on this album. It has that great line that capricorn pointed out upthread ("wanna change my dick, my dick, my dick"), but I especially love that the meaning of the song is largely unchanged.

I can't get enough of "More than My Dick." Oddly enough, the song's message doesn't change one bit.

Yeah, "More than Words" was THE power ballad at one point in high school, and I distinctly recall having a moment of clarity (despite the raging hormones addling my brain and clouding my judgment) and thinking, "Hey, wait a minute! This guy's not being romantic--he just wants to get in the girl's pants."
