The Simpsons parody is among the greatest things ever crafted by the hand of man.

I won’t say Paint Your Wagon is a great musical, but watching Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin sing is definitely worth it.

I was watching that commercial the other day where they use “Wanderin’ Star” and wondered how many people knew Lee Marvin sang it.

Thank you for posting! I don’t know how I missed this clip until just now, but I think we should petition TCM (or whoever owns this movie) to tack this Simpsons clip to the end of PYW.

Yes.

Yes it was!

I mean no disrespect when I say this,

I truly didn’t think this clip would be new to anyone!

I’m glad that I got to introduce you to it.

This clip ought be known universally - amongst people that know Clint Eastwood at least.
