A Versus Daily Double: [1] If You've A Brain, You Won't Vote McCain & [2] Crash Dance

Marcy Shaffer is one of today's greats in musical parody. Roll over, Tom Leher. This blog becomes a vlog today. Follow the bounding ball and sing along. If this is (fair & balanced) singsong, so be it.

The co-producers of VERSUS wrote:

So many wrongs. So little time.

Thus the genesis of VERSUS. Born of the conviction that musical parody is mightier than PowerPoint, VERSUS is an equal opportunity skewer-er of the ruthless, the truthless, the reckless, the feckless.

VERSUS parodies are written by Marcy Shaffer, whose professional writing experience includes television, film, lyrics, verse, and… musical parody. The parody lyrics on the page become the audio of VERSUS courtesy of some of the best musical talent in the business.

VERSUS is co-produced by Russ Meyer, a private equity veteran whose industry expertise includes financial services as well as entertainment.
