Beatnik Turtle's Song of the Day

Back in 1995, before Beatnik Turtle, we flirted with playing live. We never did, opting instead to write a bunch of songs and play them "live" - all at once - into a multi-track recorder. This then is the theme we wrote to our non-worldwide-stuck-in-the-basement tour.

You've seen their comments in forums and websites everywhere. You know the ones: meaningless, arrogant, rude, and uninformed. Hiding behind their screen name, these commenters are hereby dubbed proud members of the "Douchebag Brigade." Be sure to check out the song's video.

There was a such a great discussion of this song's topic in this episode of Evo Terra's podcast Evo @ 11 (see "YouTube is full of sh*t stains") that we thought we'd echo the sentiment.

An upbeat, swingin' number with a positive outlook on life.

Don't leave it this way - that's just not right.

One word: spellchecker.

This song was one of a series of allegedly "failed theme songs" for Aldie and Derk's board gaming podcast BoardGameGeek, a.k.a. "GeekSpeak."

Hey, as long as you're gonna put so much time and energy into raising kids, you may as well profit from it.
