This one doesn't need much introduction. The inimitable Victor Borge playing with words in one of his hilarious skits.

I loved Victor Borge as a kid whenever he'd be a guest on someone's TV show. His comedy was so playful and intelligent at the same time.
That's a great way to describe it. I remember the first time I saw Borge on a PBS special, I practically laughed till I cried. Of course the fact that it was mostly music-related humor appealed to me too.
I haven't seen Victor in ages! Thanks for reminding me about him!
