• Comment: This album is likely notable, however this article contains several violations of the tone we use on Wikipedia. Genius.com is also not a reliable source, as it is user-generated content. - Samoht27 ( talk) 21:14, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Brontosaurus is the third and final studio album by American comedic a capella group Da Vinci's Notebook. It was released on April 1, 2002. The album contains some of the quartet's most well-known works, including "Another Irish Drinking Song" and their infamous signature song, "Enormous Penis," which was also their only single.

Legacy

Brontosaurus was released in 2002, and later promoted on The Bob & Tom Show. The album was met with positive acclaim.

"Enormous Penis" is a song about a person who cheers himself up from looking at his penis. The track has gained popularity in the group's post-disbandment years as an internet meme due to its vulgar humor.

In 2013, the children's movie Despicable Me 2 featured "Another Irish Drinking Song" ^[2] with lyrics in the dialect of Minions, a main character in the Despicable Me franchise.

Track listing

All songs written by Paul Sabourin, Greg "Storm" DiCostanzo, Bernie Muller-Thym, and Richard Hsu, except where noted.

Additional notes

"The Gates" is a parody of Pete Seeger's 1955 song "The Fox," focused on Microsoft CEO Bill Gates. ^[3]

"Face Like Billy Joel" is a parody of Billy Joel's 1983 hit song " The Longest Time." ^[4]

The bonus track at the end of the album features a clip that is also used earlier in the album on the song "The Big Chair." ^[5]
