Oink oink flap flap

There's some fairly odd music in my CD collection, but not much that approaches the sheer cognitive dissonance of the songs on "When Pigs Fly: Songs You Never Thought You'd Hear". The prize oddity is "Unforgettable" sung by the duet of Ani DiFranco and Jackie Chan, who has a surprisingly smooth voice.

Don Ho sings a mellow "Shock the Monkey". Bad-girl Lesley ("It's My Party") Gore performs "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap". The Fixx perform "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'", which works pretty well with a New Wave sound. Herman's Hermits perform "White Wedding". You get the idea.

You can listen to sound clips at CD Baby, which sells it for nineteen bucks; I assume the steep price is due to licensing fees. It's worth it just to hear Jackie Chan croon.
