YMMV / Nellie McKay

Go To

  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Her first album (released by Sony) includes "Clonie", where she sings "should've signed with Verve instead of Sony." After one album she left Sony, and later recorded for Verve.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song:
    • "I Wanna Get Married" is a bit of a riff on the standard "Tea for Two", with a direct allusion at one point.
      "Tea for Two": Day will break and you'll awake, and start to bake a sugar cake, for me to take for all the boys to see.
      "I Wanna Get Married": I just want to bake a sugar cake for you to take to work in the morn.
    • The melody of "¡Bodega!" has more than a passing resemblance to "Home for the Holidays", of all things.
