Today's song is...
Kitten Intro
Not really technically a song but it genuinely amuses me so I am going with it. Can you imagine going to a show that opened with this and how completely confused you would be if you didn't know the band? "It's your kind of kitten." Love that. I sort of feel like I went to a show where they played this at the beginning but I might be making that up. I know I've been to one with the Critic Intro.

As much as I love the Countdown Intro, the Kitten Intro is possibly more absurd...
ReplyDelete"NO!
They Might Be Giants are not Satanists.
They are not posing as an easy-listening Nazi rock band trying to lure intellectuals into believing what they already know to be true."
^^^ Those few lines always make me laugh. Like you'd said, if you didn't know the band, you would probably be freaked out and/or confused.
Haha, this one makes me laugh every time I listen to it. Especially the Linnell part. X) And I didn't really know what it was, as it's another I hadn't looked up on the wiki until you said it was a concert intro. I would love to hear them open a show with this! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, this is one of those things that greatly amuses me, but I'm sure it would just confuse someone I know who isn't very familiar with TMBG if I happened to play it for them in the car or something.
