... thanks to Enfant in comments. I know this song ("Barbie Girl") has been parodied a lot, but this is superbly well done:
Also please note the addition to the blogroll of Lynda Lovon (Lynda Williams), The Physics Chanteuse (commercial site) (blog). She's an excellent performer, a commenter on issues of science in society, and not least, a feminist activist. Ms. Lovon has (somewhere...) recorded a parody called "Hi-Tek Girl," not of this song but of "Material Girl." I discovered The Physics Chanteuse years ago; I don't know why I didn't add her to my blogroll then.
ADDED: search for her on YouTube as "Lynda Lovon". I recommend "The Lovon Song" (some physics knowledge helpful) and "We are Toxic" (much more somber).
Listen! That sound you hear is the shredding of the social contract. - Bill Moyers
