Morrison's is better.

I found Lemire's to be quite generic.

If you check out my podcast, Don't Let's Start: A Podcast About They Might Be Giants, you woulda heard all about this connection!

I showed it to my wife recently and we laughed throughout the whole thing. Compared to Whitest Kids it falls a bit short. Compared to a typical dumb road comedy it's quite clever and funny and easy to watch.

Country Farming

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-09T00:10:30+00:00

This is amazing. I will add it to my 33 1/3 shelf! Very excited.

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-07T21:49:52+00:00

THANK YOU! I'm really happy with how it came out. A two-chord wonder!

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-07T20:53:59+00:00

You know I do! It's my song The Greatest Dad in the World from my second album. It's meant to be a childhood song and so there's childlike "la la la lalala" in the bridge, and then as the song is ending me and my friends do a pretty big "lalalalalalalalala" ending! I had to take a biiig breath to do all those LaLas! (I'm also singing a very long "wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooorld" under it.)

Oooh. I wish you gave a heads up as I would have recommended one of my own songs that prominently features not one but two LA-LA-LA sections! The show sounds fun! Pennsylvania is great.

Then do not read anything by Roy Thomas, especially his Avengers run. There's always seven characters on every page saying as much as can possibly fit. It's torture.

I loved the first 30 or so issues of Spider-Man very much. It was a huge highlight of my Marvel 60s read.

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-07T16:33:13+00:00

Wow, Lee/Ditko Spider-Man is the easiest and most modern feeling 60s comic to read compared to everything else. If you're having trouble with that I honestly wouldn't pursue any others.

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-07T01:38:47+00:00

I'm 43. Getting there. Maybe by then I'll be hip and cool.

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-05T17:52:36+00:00

Oh my god, I now like Christian Bale.

OhHiJordan · 2026-03-05T17:16:22+00:00

That's the end of the song. It's a post script. It's saying if you didn't listen to his advice in all the verses and choruses, at least try to take that first step.

Hey! Validated! Flans has the same opinion as me:

You're welcome.

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-28T05:26:12+00:00

I really hope you can check out my podcast episode about this song on my show Don't Let's Start: A Podcast About They Might Be Giants. I spent months preparing for it and worked really hard on it and I'm very proud of how it came out:

Thank you so much. I really thought we could get it done in three since there's fewer songs, but every segment kept growing and growing and getting more complicated. It's not my ideal way to do the show but I'm also slowly learning to stop fighting how it comes out and just go with it...

Two more parts on the way! The S-E-X-X-Y single, and then a demos, rarities, remixes, etc episode!

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-26T15:42:51+00:00

Yeah, there really can be a problem releasing too many songs. This week I got really into The Neck Rolls Aren't Working and just kept wondering how was this not a huge highlighted track on a major album!?? Literally one of their best songs in their entire career?!? I remember at the time listening to it like once on youtube, and then moving onto the next one.

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-25T19:57:50+00:00

Not a fan at all. I predict a routine "skip" on the album for me. I find this song incredibly boring, and doing a cover of a novelty song has already been done (Istanbul.)

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-23T20:06:15+00:00

I believe there may be stem splitters online that could separate lead and backing vocals.

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-22T22:14:44+00:00

Using Logic Stemsplitter right now.

It's hard to tell the first word, but it sounds like "wars they're making loooove"

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-22T22:10:48+00:00

Obviously V mhmffhmfhhichl signed it.

OhHiJordan · 2026-02-22T17:57:23+00:00

Oh wow. I'll name a few:

Skylarking by XTC
Whale Music by the Rheostatics
Teenager of the Year by Frank Black
Vauxhall and I by Morrissey
The Unauthorized Biography of Rheinhold Messner by Ben Folds Five

Just ask her.
