I’ve got your PGP key, hot stuff

I was listening to my music today, and I heard a line that I found hilarious coming from mainstream music. The song was Guarded by Monkeys by Cracker. It goes like this: You are so beautiful You should be hid deep in the jungle On some forgotten island I heard about you I got your PGP key I write you letters every day You are so beautiful You should be guarded by monkeys You are so beautiful Though, it should [...]

Ding!

I was listening to music today, and I hear this: Something sound familiar? The song is Skeleton Key by Days of the New.

If they get really popular, they go up to 99 cents, but no higher. The artist collects 70% of the money the songs earn!
