FMD: July 7, 2017 – Ken Griffey’s Grotesquely Swollen Jaw
I'll be heading up to the Twins game tonight. For some reason that put into my head the classic Simpsons' tune "We're Talkin' Softball." Which made me think of other original songs from the Simpsons. Which made me smile a whole lot. ("Can I play the piano any more?" "Of course you can!" "Well I couldn't before.")
I also thought of some of the great original songs from other TV properties (Bob's Burgers comes immediately to mind), and how that overlap of original music and TV can really carry a joke through, often beyond the show. It might really be a comedic thing for the most part?
Anyway, let's talk about the use of original music in TV shows or something like that. And shave our sideburns.
Garfunkel and Oates – The Fadeaway
I'm going to say this still counts as "rock"...yeah. Also this might be NSFWish for you guys. Good thing it's Saturday.
