"Ra-ra, ra-ra-ra, roma, ro-ma-ma, ga-ga, ohh la-la, I want your bad romance."
These are the lyrics to Lady Gaga's hit song, Bad Romance. When Lady Gaga sings them, they sound good, but when Kiss FM DJ Big Bob sings them in unison? Well that's just hilarious. In fact, it's so funny, that Big Bob has proceeded to sing the last 2 lines of the song in a humorous voice every time the song has been on between 6 and 10AM for the past 127 days. Because the song is on between 2 and 3 times an hour, Big Bob has made the same colorful attempt at humor over 800 times, an amazing number just in itself. But what is even more amazing is that the joke still holds the same appeal, the same hilarity as it did the first time Big Bob attempted it.
"I still sing along with the song because it's still funny when I do it. In fact, it's so funny I dont just sing at the end of Lady Gaga, I do it at the end of Miley Cyrus and the end of Ke$ha too," Big Bob told Rolling Scone in an exclusive interview. "It's akin to watching the 'Ouch Charlie' You Tube video over and over and over again, its funny the first time, but then it gets even funnier upon repeated viewings. Or like the Van Wilder movies, yes the first one was great, but are you really going to tell me that the original Van Wilder is better than Van Wilder: Freshman Year or Van Wilder: the Rise of Taj? Of course not! It's because they take the same jokes that they made in the original and just insert them in the new movies without any regard to plot or timing and then MAGIC, it's somehow even funnier the 5th, the 6th and even yes the 800th time."
Big Bob stated that he will not stop doing it until the joke loses its magic. "Maybe after its 30,000th time, you know that's what's so crazy about comedy. You can't really tell what will be funny and for how long, seriously, I'm still laughing at that Star Wars Kid from You Tube. and I don't know anyone who doesn't think that's still hilarious. But I have lightning in a bottle here, I can't just give it up while the joke is still fresh. As soon as it's no longer hilarious, I'll stop."
