"Justified & Ancient (Stand by the
Jams)" is easily one of the more bizarre pop songs ever recorded. The KLF,
really a avantgarde art collective, somehow managed to convince country icon
Tammy Wynette to sing the lead vocals on this tune, with lines such as
"They call me up in Tennessee, they say: Tammy, stand by the Jams" or
"They're justified and they're ancient, they drive an ice cream van".
Presumably the flamboyant vehicle at the CD cover.
I mean, where *is* Operation Repo when you really need them? Wonder whip, anyone? Something tells me you won't find this song (a number one hit in many nations) on Tammy Wynette's best of collections, LOL.
The other songs on this EP are just as absurd as the title song. You have been warned.
