Has anything you've ever watched,read or heard altered your ability to take an artist seriously?

Everytime I listen to Tom growling murderously on his new album I keep seeing a furry blue puppet bouncing along!

How can you expect to be taken seriously?

I'd never heard "Ante Up" by OPP before I saw Bert and Ernie nailing it in this video, probably on the Word blog:

I listen to the song quite regularly, but never without the image of Bert and Ernie in my head. I love the way the gangsta aggression is completely undermined.

It's a well-established fact that Shaun Ryder becomes Grandpa Simpson on "Reverend Black Grape":

I've found it hard to take John Humphrys seriously on the Today programme since I realised he often sounds like Reverend Lovejoy from The Simpsons.
