In honor of the Supreme Court's wacky, FCC-like decision on the Ten Commandments, here are four Ten Commandment MP3s:
Charlie the Hamster Sings The Ten Commandments (via 365 Days)
The Ten Commandments of Love - Five Diamonds
Ten Commandments - The Fugs
Ten Commandments of Love - Harvey and the Moonglows
I was hoping you'd have the one with the out of tune couple singing the commandments to the accompaniment of two guitar chords that had circulated a lot of Mp3.com "worst of" lists back when Mp3.com was good. Maybe someone else still has that.

If you count the commandments in the Moonglows' "Ten Commandments of Love," you'll find there's only nine!

Well observed, Dave the S, but who can count the Moonglows'? Does anyone get beyond one or maybe two (if they can't find the stop button). Nothing against the Moonglows, but how about using this one at Guantanamo?
(I hope this isn't too mean.)
(Also, it says on the preview page that this is being posted at 12:57 am or thereabouts--but it's 9 pm now. And I'm in your timezone.)

When I get back from Maine I'll try to post the Prince Buster version...

My personal highlight was Charlie the Hamster gleefully uttering the words "Thou shalt not commit adultery."
