I still think it works better as a laxative ad.

"Constipation - Kryptonite isn't the only thing that takes the Man of Steel out of commission!" Brought to you by Ex-Lax.

I'm curious to see how many persons get the reference.

I definitely don't get the reference.

Wow. I honestly thought MacArthur Park was some sort of universal reference. :)

Oops!

I never even heard of MacArthur Park. Is that one of those white things?

Donna Summer had a bit hit with it! But yeah, Richard Harris was the original singer.

MacArthur Park is also a track on at least one Four Tops greatest hits albums.

Wow. Macarthur Park, existence 100% justified, by cape comedy. Well done, boys!

I only get it because of the Weird Al parody based on a certain dinosaur film. Which makes me somewhat less old, but substantially geekier.

If Donna Summer and Four Tops recorded it, I guess you can't call it a white thing. I thought it was along the lines of a Bob Dylan reference, which I can never get unless they are ridiculously obvious.

MacArthur Park was also voted the worst pop song ever in Dave Barry's Bad Song Contest, back in the '90s. It may have been surpassed by now (I'm looking in your direction, Cheetah Girls).

I got the reference, and I'm 22.

And it always makes me laugh.

BWAH-HA-HA!

That's really quite clever; perhaps that's the best way to explain what emotion the artist was going for.

MacArthur Park is also one of my guilty pleasures.

Totally got the reference...totally thought it was FUNNY as Hell

Well, thanks. Now I'm going to be singing that damn song all day.

Must. buy. MacArthur Park. on. iTunes.

Still think it works better as a William Shatner homage.

:( poor cake

Best recording is by The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain on their DVD "Anarchy in the Ukulele."

Dammit, I always thought those were the joke lyrics!!!

Damn you Donna Summer, YOU WIN AGAIN!!!

On the plus side, it's good to see that Superman takes his karaoke seriously!

:( poor cake

Ha! Post of the freakin' year.
