MP3: Lil' Markie "Diary of an Unborn Child"
Via the reliably weird WFMU:
"Lil' Markie" is the creation of evangelist Mark Fox, who uses his ability to sing in a terrifying "childlike" falsetto to sing cautionary Christian tales.
Start with "Diary of an Unborn Child" (8.0 mb MP3). If you can handle that, go here to download the entire 17 song album. Don't miss the video clips; the voice is even more surreal when you see it being produced by a jolly mulleted man.
edit: Usually I avoid posting this sort of thing. Though often accurate, the whole "What did they do now? Gosh those evangelical christians sure are nutty!" trope is trite and not particularly productive. I made an exception because this was just too crazy to keep to myself.

The ugly head of evangelism rears it's mulleted head. Wow, this stuff is awful! I can't believe people would want to listen to this just because he is singing about their beliefs.
I'm trying to imagine a left-wing equivalent. Like someone singing in that voice about being an Iraqi child being bombed by Bush. Somehow, I just don't think it would fly.
Holy son of a gun,that songs creepier then micheal jackson
