851: Na
explain xkcd: It's 'cause you're dumb.
(Redirected from 851)
| Na |
![]() Title text: I hear that there are actual lyrics later on in Land of 1,000 Dances, but other than the occasional 'I said,' I've never listened long enough to hear any of them. |
[edit] Explanation
This xkcd is interesting because the image at the main xkcd site is the one you see above, but if you click on the image, you get a slightly different comic, that includes the Paul McCartney song "Hey Jude".
The top song is Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye by recorded by studio musicians Garrett Scott, Dale Frashuer, and producer/writer Paul Leka that has become very popular for home fans in sporting events in America taunting the losing away team.
The Batman entry is from the 60's TV show "Batman".
The next is the theme song to the game "Katamari Damacy".
The last song is "The Land of 1000 Dances" by Wilson Pickett.

Discussion
Randall actually explains at the top: "I can't believe I forgot Hey Jude.
I don't get do-overs, but I couldn't resist making a fixed version." Mark Hurd (talk) 16:29, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- The "make it better" portion of the URL of the revised comic is probably a reference to additional lyrics from Hey Jude. In light of the fact that that particular joke wouldn't have been available unless he had omitted it from the initial one, it's possible he 'forgot' Hey Jude on purpose.
