Whenever I hear the phrase “President-elect Obama” I immediately set it to the tune of the words “Solidarity Forever” from Billy Eliot.

Instead of

Solidarity solidarity
Solidarity forever

I sing

President-elect President-elect
President-elect Obama

I just can’t stop.

(You can hear the original in this clip at about 1:59 and several times thereafter.)

It’s like eight years ago, when W picked Dick Cheney as his running mate and people were going around replacing the words “Slim Shady” with “Dick Cheney” in the Eminem song.
