Novelty

Novelty music is a genre of popular music that was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is characterized by its humorous lyrics, often involving a comical story, and often featuring a chorus or refrain. It was often performed in vaudeville and burlesque shows, as well as in variety shows and musical theater. Novelty music often featured a comic or vaudeville-style character, such as a clown or a hobo, and was often used to poke fun at the latest trends and fashions. It was a popular genre of music in the early 20th century and was often used to entertain audiences in nightclubs and theaters. Many of the songs were parodies of popular songs of the day, and some were even written to poke fun at political issues. Novelty music has experienced a resurgence in popularity in recent years, as many artists have recorded covers of classic novelty songs, and it continues to be an important part of American music culture.
