Craptastic? Not even. And you couldn’t PAY me to listen to Chocolate Rain…ever!

:)

In fact, this is actually pretty nice as well.

If I don’t download it, can I get a refund on the minute and a half of my life that I won’t get back?

B) “Chi-i-ild” is not a trill, and also isn’t a display of chops.

C) I wonder if he does this knowingly, taking one for the team, to provide college aesthetics classes with plenty of discussion fodder.

Kotaro Oshio: Cherry Blossom Time

He [Coulton] recently accompanied Hodgman on his book tour, singing songs about hobos

Hmmm, and Ace has been “out of town” and “visiting friends” a lot lately. Hmmmm…

The kid’s got chops.

Food Lion after a week-long power outage has better chops.

“Jonathan Coulton is the Contributing Troubadour for Popular Science magazine and the musical director for John Hodgman’s Little Gray Book Lectures. He recently accompanied Hodgman on his book tour, singing songs about hobos and furry lobsters, all while wearing a funny hat. His songs about vengeful nerds, ennui-afflicted clowns, self-loathing giant squids, and devotees of a certain Swedish prefab furniture store are insanely clever without ever being too clever for their own good.”

He’s actually talented and writes love songs for mad scientists and computer programmers. Seriously….

It would help if he wasn’t about 8 cents flat most of the time. Music people will understand this.

The Tayser is never flat. His piano was 8 cents sharp.

Every day is TAY ZONDAY!!!!!!111!

FROM THE HEART.

Meds still haven’t worn off from the dentist, eh?

How about it?

I can’t but help be reminded of Salieri vs. Mozart in the Amadeus scene where Salieri is so proud of his march, until Mozart takes it over and shows him what he missed.

It is 9 minutes long but the best scene in the movie and one of the best scenes in movie history.

And this looked much more like a lip-sync to me than that chocolate rain nonsense. The first “…at your side…” is absurd. The sung note ends, but his mouth and expression do not change in any way for another three seconds. Wtf?

So now, my little peacemaker uses it to his advantage. If we are in the car and anyone starts arguing. He starts singing “Chocolate Rain” and we all laugh.

That ROCKED!

Tiny Tim is back

You know what they say about the higher the voice the smaller the male appendage.

I’m sure Tim’s moniker had more to do with his manhood than his voice.

This kid, however, probably needs a hose reel or skate or something when he’s out and about. He can also probably press all three foot pedals on the piano at the same time.

Now that’s talent.

Sometimes you just have to let your Zonday show.

Last time this much Tayser was unleashed the FBI couldn’t handle the lab work. And this sucker could go viral.
