Time to get some culture into ya, kids! From 1976, "Madame Schwartzhead Blending", written by Sam Pottle and Emily Perl Kingsley, performed by the titular opera singer, Madame Schwartzhead (Richard Hunt). She sounds out words, such as "fan" and "net", until they blend together, which her harried stage manager (Frank Oz) misinterprets to hilarious results ("86 the fan!", "You're a rising star!"). You may remember her from the "Front and Back Opera" to the tune of "The Blue Danube" where she sounded a lot like Marilyn Sokol ;-)
