Jimi Hendrix - Foxy Lady Lyrics PARODY w/graphics and article
Okay, readers, since I've worked so hard on the graphic-intensive parody, I hope you take time to read a short article, which precedes the ex-Hendrix lyrics. In fact, I spent as much time researching and writing the article, as I did on the parody. Perhaps reading this intro will give viewers with dial-up enough time for all the graphics to load.

Nothing new about the Flush Dim-BAH approach to publicity, when he criticized Michael J. Fox. His remarks simply show his audience ratings are falling again, mirroring a political party he heavily endorses. Obviously Flush embraces the attitude:

"I don't care what the newspapers say about me as long as they spell my name right."

P.T. Barnum, Will Rogers, W.C. Fields and last but not least Mae West, ALL made that comment at some point in their careers.

On December 12, 1937, West took part in an Edgar Bergen radio show, shocking both the audience and NBC executives. Appearing as herself, while flirting heavily with Charlie McCarthy, Bergen's ventriloquism dummy, she utilized her special brand of witty, risqué sexual references.

Even more outrageous, an earlier sketch, written by Arch Oboler, stars West and Don Ameche as Adam and Eve in the Garden Of Eden. The conversation between the pair is so risqué, it borders on blasphemy and caused her to not even be mentioned on NBC for over thirty years.

Like a toilet, Flush has been pumping out crap for years:

FLUSH Dim-BAH, DURING "SUNDAY NFL COUNTDOWN," ON ESPN: "You know, I think the sum total of what you're all saying is that Donovan McNabb is regressing. He's going backwards. And my -- I'm sorry to say this. I don't think he's been that good from the get-go. I think what we have here is a little social concern in the NFL. I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well."

HEIDI COLLINS, CNN ANCHOR INTERVIEWS PETER KING, SENIOR WRITER, "SPORTS ILLUSTRATED":
Flush Dimbah Resigns


Aired October 2, 2003 - 07:04

COLLINS: Peter, do you think Dimimbaugh was being targeted by the very liberal media that he claims was backing Donovan McNabb?

KING: No, I don't think so, Heidi. I think the whole story here is that you knew at some point that Flush Limburger was going to say something that would be indefensible -- at least I knew it. And I thought it was only a matter of time.

COLLINS: Why did they hire him, in your mind? What did they want him to do?

KING: I think, you know, Disney, you know, ABC, ESPN, Fox, CBS, the rights holders for NFL football are desperate to up the ratings, so that they can make a better deal in their next television contract after the 2005 season when the NFL contract comes up again. They want the ratings to spike, so that they can make a better deal on the next contract. That's what this was an attempt to do.

KING: You know, by Monday, there will be something else. Somebody will -- you know, somebody else will say something stupid, and we'll start covering that. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0310/02/ltm.01.html


FLUSH, is not even innovative. Dug “Greece-man” Trash, has built big ratings, before numerous radio stations were forced to fire him, for openly presenting racist and sexist comments since 1974. Greeceman was fired from Infinity-owned WARW-FM in Washington after joking, “No wonder they drag them behind trucks,” referring to the dragging death of James Byrd in Texas by two white supremacists.

From 1981 until 2004, Bob Levey worked at The Washington Post, where he wrote a prize-winning daily column, Bob Levey's Washington and hosted a weekly broadcast show at Washington Post Radio. Post After retiring in 2004, he occasionally accepts speaking engagements and hosted the Bob Blog at the Huffington Post, for a short period, earlier this year.

Levey Live: Speaking Freely
Friday, February 26, 1999

CALLER FROM WASHINGTON DC: "LOOKS LIKE THE GREECEMAN HAS REALLY DONE IT THIS TIME. DO YOU THINK THAT HIS TERMINATION WAS WARRANTED?"

Bob Levey: "Without the slightest question. His comment was way, way over the edge. Significantly, not a single soul in the broadcast biz has risen in support. Nor have we heard any limp arguments about how Greece was just exercising his first amendment rights. What he said was racist drivel. I hope he never works in radio again. I suspect he won't."

While, everything I hear from right-wing talking heads is ludicrous, keep in mind, when it comes to publicity, Michael J. Fox is no fool. Certainly, there is no reason for Fox to mask his symptoms, especially when he realizes some idiot will likely open their yap and play straight into his strategy. Hats off to you Mr. Fox: They are indeed as stupid as you thought. I'm glad you won the gambit, especially since it will make life better for millions of people in the future. The future was ALWAYS your domain in film!

Now I'll take you BACK TO THE PAST.

BRIEF HENDRIX HISTORY
Foxy Lady by Jimi Hendrix from his 1967 album Are You Experienced, features the song as the lead track on the official UK edition. It also appears on several compilations, including Smash Hits (1968/1969) and Experience Hendrix: The Best of Jimi Hendrix (1997).

The song features dynamic guitar riffs and a solo, which is perhaps the first use of electronic feedback in any studio recording.

Very early in his all-to-brief career, Jimi Hendrix, along with his group, The Jimi Hendrix Experience was opening act for The Monkees on their first American tour. Like many popular musicians from England at the time, The Monkees were Hendrix fans. Sadly, their mostly teenage pop-audience did not warm to his outlandish stage act. He abruptly quit the tour after only a few shows. According to news-sources at the time, Hendrix was removed from the tour after complaints by Daughters of the American Revolution, which labeled his act as "lewd and indecent." His manager, Chas Chandler later said Hendrix was "thrown off" The Monkees tour as a strategy to attain maximum media impact.


Before slaughtering the lyrics, let's look at them in original form:

Jimi Hendrix - Foxy Lady Lyrics

I've made up my mind,


The Page Three girl was introduced in 1969 when Rupert Murdoch
relaunched The Sun after buying it. The Page Three girl was
topless for the first time on November 17, 1970. The first
topless model was Stephanie Rahn. The change was credited
for a 40% increase in sales, as circulation rose to 2.1
million copies within a year.
I'm tired of wasting all my precious time

You've got to be all blind, all blind

Ooh, Fox is Shady

Ooh, Fox is Shady,

You look so good, Foxy

oh yeah Foxy

Fox is shady
Fox is shady
