It's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
( You what? )
If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.
The link to the mp3 will expire at some point in the future.
Today you were invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
Boothby Graffoe - Spelling Sheep [link to mp3 download expired, or YouTube link may still be active]
Boothby Graffoe is my kind of comedian. He doesn't pick on people, he doesn't ruminate on how amazing it is that everyone keeps bits of string and old nails in drawers. He walks on stage with a guitar on, does chunks of surreal stand-up and occasionally lapses into song. Some of the songs are silly, some are thoughtful. Many are both.
This is his song of insomnia, which is something I know a few people on my friends' list are suffering at present. I'm not sure it'll be a good solution to insomnia, to be honest, but it's a cute song. And gently boogieable, I think.
This song comes from the oddly-named Songs for Dogs, Funerals..." but for once I don't recommend you go and buy it. Quite a few of the songs are a bit... odd out of context. Instead, I recommend you go and buy a ticket to see Boothby Graffoe somewhere. He's ace :)
(The title of this song is, according to the album, Spelling Sheep but it seems to be credited other places as A to Zzzz. The title in the metadata of the mp3 is flippin' ridiculous, and I strongly suspect that Mr Graffoe himself may have done the Gracenote entry for the album...)
