Sorry.  I found it a bit annoying and had to cut it short.  But I will say this:  I did catch the poop word in there.  If there wasn't any cursing, even mild, kids would probably find this hilarious.  Even though I didn't listen to the whole thing, as I came back to comment, I found myself smiling at the thought of somebody in pajamas going bananas.

Esoteric song. Funny.

Have fun!

It's Bananas! B. A. N. A. N. A. S!

You actually sound a lot like Steve, the old presenter of Blues Clues, in this one. lol

Hello Rhys,

Definitely different.  Every so often someone comes out with a totally, ridiculously funny, strange song that, for what ever reason, develops a cult following, who am I to judge.  What do you believe, will this be the one for another generation?  Guess we'll find out.  Good luck and best wishes,

Speak soon

Ok Rhys, after I replied to your post, I walked outside to hot box a smoke, it's cold here in Tennessee.  My mind started wandering and I got to thinking,  were you really going bananas in your jammas eating spam out of the can with your hand?   Then it occurred to me that I walk around the house here in my Sponge Bob jammies with WHERES THE BOOTY written all over them.  Like I said, who am I to judge.

Like Deacon says..."Cult following" Who knows where it'll go. It could be the next apple pen...

Rhys, I'm a poor excuse for a songwriter and only an old bar band bass player, so I don't really have any authority in what I'm about to tell you.  Here is the deal as I see it.  There is not a musician out there that didn't experiment with some silly song ideas to break up the boredom and monotony so you are not doing anything wrong at all.  However........ they say you have only one chance at making a good impression and if this was the first song I heard of yours, I would not be interested in hearing any more.  Not that I matter but if a serious Publisher or Label person heard this song you were merely having fun with, it could be a game changer for you.  You truly have some serious talent and when you focus on that and give more thought to what you are going to present to the public; especially over the internet......... that could make or break you.  Now that is easy for me to say because sometimes a Bob Dylan or someone with something entirely different comes along and people just love them.  There truly is no magic formula Brother so good luck in what ever you come up with; but be careful what you put out there.

Hey folks, thanks for the feedback! DClose, appreciate your candour, tbh I’m finding it more annoying as time goes on too. Can’t remove the profanity at this point, as I frankly don’t know what I was playing, don’t have the drive to learn it by ear, and deleted the master file to make space on my phone... so any kids hit potential it had is gone, which is probably for the best tbh.  Deacon, I’m happy to say that I’ve definitely never lived the narrative of this song, haven’t ever had the galls to try spam, the stuff looks terrifying. I was picturing a Homer Simpson-risqué character bumbling about failing at everything in a slapstick manner when I wrote it. While it’s got a number of intentional veiled references to mental illnesses and symptoms of such, the intent was I guess mostly to kill some time and self-edification (25 cent word I learned on these forums!) Od, I hear what you’re saying... the idea that this could be my first impression on someone is cringy to think about 😛 I don’t respect authority anyways, so speaking your mind is always appreciated imo, thanks for doing it! I’m actually somewhat torn on if I should delete it. I kind of like the flow of the weird rap thing, but the song overall presents like I’m trolling the listener, and that’s probably not going to make me many friends. John, Guy, thanks for your comments! Jenny, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen blues clues as a kid, but any memories of that are pretty much gone by now, so I’ll take your word for it! 😛 Cheers folks, have a great day

On a more dignified note, during that session I also recorded this version of hallelujah, which I think is more of a debate at the gates of heaven than a love song. For such an overcovered song, I think it’s fairly unique! Been playing it in some form since I was a kid, so it’s far from a shot in the dark!

P.S. Jenny, that was first time I’ve heard apple pen in a very long time... and somehow it got baby shark stuck in my head 😛 Which somehow makes perfect sense to me

Ugh, Baby shark! Did you HAVE to go there? Just reading the title was enough. Now I've got that stupid song stuck in my head. R-H-Y-S-!!!!! Ahhhh

Baby shark do do do do doooo  {sigh}

Haha, sorry ‘bout it! ?

Baby shark do do do do do
