The monster still walks among us; though he seems less happy these days.

Puddles Pity Party is great but Paul F. Tompkins singing Major Tom together with Busdriver and Puddles and with Kristen Schaal and Maria Bamford as backup vocals is pretty much the best thing ever.

That was great. Thank you. I’ll added it to my playlist for a bit of contast, after Hildegard von Blingin’s “Pumped Up Kicks”.

That was amazing! As a medievalist this brought a huge smile to my face.

(Especially since they understand the grammatical rules of the early modern English they use. Too often things like that descend into ridiculous ren faire English with random "thine"s where there’s no accusative or "whom"s where there’s no dative, etc.)
