THIS is the kind of thing I come to bb for.
Truly wonderful.
The sitting in silence for 2 minutes seriously at the end sold me on the whole thing. I want this broadcast over my casket as I’m laid in the ground
“I’m going to sit here quietly until I hear some applause. Come on, I know you’re out there. I can hear you breathing. Oh, wait, that’s me. …or is it?”
I loved the quiet meditation at the end…
And this one!!!
that is seriously the biggest moktak i have ever seen. the sound it makes is fantastic.
I love my BoingBoing today.

That was a religious experience.
The best part was the silent part at the end where you could meditate with him on what just happend. Thats the type of spirituality we need in this age.
“But, Ringo, you aren’t even the best drummer in a one-stick-Buddhist-temple-band!”*
I really liked the backing singers on this; especially when the band began to play.
I thought that the Ramones’ track could have done without the additional music.
I’d like to see him cover some classic Metal; like “Paranoid”.
*Yep, I know Ringo was an innovative and skilled drummer, but that joke always makes me giggle.
Another TRULY wonderful thing! Thanks.
Thanks, I needed that.
