Jonathan Richman "Abdul & Cleopatra"

I love pretty much all of Jonathan Richman's work from with the Modern Lovers, sing-songwirter era, Spanish songs to his country albums.

There is a good chance you have heard his work and not known it.
He was in "There's something about mary" playing songs about Ben Stiller during the scene breaks.

The Sex Pistols also covered his song "Roadrunner" on their greatest hits compilation.

Here is an awesome clip of him performing "Abdul and Cleopatra" on French TV:


And here is "Roadrunner" from the first Modern Lovers album:
