Celebrity / Song shoe-horn game

An idea ripped off from another message board:

Take a song lyric, and shoe-horn in a celebrity name or names which sounds like the original (replaced) lyric.

Wha-?

Examples:

"Let's Face the music,
Anne Frank"

or

"There's a Staaaar man
Waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he knows he'd blow Ralph Fiennes"

or

Why do Pe- ters and Lee appear
Every time
Roy Kinnear?
Just like me
They long to be
Ceausescu...

Score points for larfs and number of names you can crow-bar in.

Get it? Good, time wasting, slack-jawed fun.

"Hit me baby one more time" - Britney Spears

My loneliness is Philbin* me.
I must confess, my Bill Bixby,(woo-ohh)
When I'm not Brit Hume**, I lose my mind
give me Divine***
Hit me baby, Gertrude Stein!

* Regis Philbin, host of "Who wants to be a millionaire"

** Brit Hume - conservative anchor on the FoxNews channel

*** Divine - Large Drag Queen from John Waters movies.

I'm inordinately pleased with "Hit me baby, Gertrude Stein."

Todd> So you should be *massive applause*

Everyone: Probably a good idea, btw, to give song title where not completely obvious.

I'll annotate non-obvious celebrities for the trans-atlantic audience, too.

So I guess:

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
But Rod Hull and Emu
Are still on the line

just isn't gonna cut it, then? (Ref- "Wichita Lineman", Glenn Campbell's definitive version OBVIOUSLY, and a guy with a scary sock puppet.)

Shit, this went down well, didn't it?

Anyway:

She loves you,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

She loves you,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

She loves you,
Jacques Derr-i-daaaa!


OR

"And with a love like that,
Foucault you should be gla-aaad!"

I'm bloody wasted on you lot, really I am.
