Spike Jones : None But The Lonely Heart

 

"No, John.
It's best that we part, John.
You have another wife, and I have another husband, and he has another wife, and she has another husband.
It isn't the simplest sort of arrangement.
It isn't.
No, after all our years of wedded bliss, it's auf wiedersehen, John.
We must think of the child.
After all, we do have a child, and he has a child, and the child has another wife, and she has another husband, and he has a child, and that child, John, is our child.
I must go away somewhere and figure this thing out.
Auf wiedersehen, John, auf wiedersehen.
But, Mary dear, I know you have another husband, and that he has another wife, and that she has another husband, and that our own child, through marriage, is now my uncle and your sisters father on your grandmother's side, but can't we talk this over ?
There is still time, our divorce doesn't become final for another five minutes.
We'll talk it over some other day, John, but not today.
Why not, dear?
Today I am to be married.
Bonsoir, John.
Prosit.
Auf wiedersehen.
Au revoir.
Adios.
Aloha
How do you like that?
She didn't even say 'goodbye' !"

Unkle Wiki says :

Spike Jones a clairement été influencé par les Hoosier Hot Shots et les Marx Brothers.
Il a quant à lui influencé Stan Freberg, Gerard Hoffnung, Peter Schickele's P. D. Q. Bach, The Goons, les Beatles, Frank Zappa, George Maciunas, The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo, et The Roto Rooter Goodtime Christmas Band. Jones est mentionné dans la chanson de the Band Up on Cripple Creek. L'écrivain Thomas Pynchon est un de ses admirateurs et a écrit le livret d'une compilation des titres les plus extravagants de Spike Jones (intitulé Spiked !) paru en 1994 (BMG Catalyst). 

Le réalisateur Spike Jonze a quant à lui choisi son pseudonyme en référence à Spike Jones.
