Short People

I don’t know if this is worth a whole blog post, but I’ve been clicking around Imeem.com and finding some nifty stuff there, nifty at least to me. The song provided below is an a cappella version of Randy Newman’s “Short People” by a group called The King’s Singers. And, no, I nevuh hoid uv em eeder.

Perhaps I should take a moment to point out that I actually like the songs and videos I’ve been posting here. The thought has occurred to me that since much of this (much? how about all, buster?) is offbeat and loopy, that maybe people could be thinking I’m only yanking chains with what I post.

On the contrary, I consider myself the standard of good taste and high art, and I provide these materials merely for your edification. Yes, clearly you’re all a bunch of filthy troglodytes, and I am all too aware that I am wasting my time in my fruitless efforts to bring you to civilization. But perhaps when the walls of the citadel are crumbled finally to dust, you will then find a moment to thank me for these vain attempts at instruction. Alas, your regrets will be futile, as I will already be lodged in my island fortress laughing at your post-apocalyptic horror from my giant mad genius evil display monitor.
