'''Cowbell''' is based on a 2000 {{w|Saturday Night Live}} skit featuring Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken. In the skit, Ferrell plays Gene Frankel, a fictional member of the band {{w|Blue Öyster Cult}}, and Walken plays Bruce Dickinson, a producer. The most famous line of the skit is when Dickinson gives a pep-talk to Frankel, telling him, "Well, guess what!  I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!"

The {{ytmnd|cowbell|first Cowbell site}} was made by {{ytmnduser|Discharger}} in May of 2004; it merely featured an image and sound of a cowbell with the text "NEEDS MORE COWBELL". Blue Öyster Cult's "Don't Fear The Reaper" was not used until two days later, in {{ytmnduser|skwirl}}'s site {{ytmnd|cowbellfever|Cowbell Fever}}.  Many sites included a bell, but sometimes YTMNDs may contain someone hitting something else.  Still other sites involve mixing a cowbell track or Walken's lines with other songs.
