What a fun song, Geir! Love the story - well written.
The minimalistic music fits perfectly. And what can I say about the voices...
Just great!

There are only three kinds of drummers. Those who can count, and those who can't.

Krasi

Sounds fantastic!!!
Sliding guitar was superb and I love 5/4, amazing production.
Such an original!!!
Great!!!

I love this on every level!

musically, the 5/4 is wonderfully inventive and off-kilter

the lyrics are wonderfully witty, and the vocal delivery is perfect for it

it's all great--- love it!!!!!!!!!!!

I fell for it Geir - nothing wrong with bump-bait.  And nothing wrong with this 5/4 gem which I'd missed up till now.  Great song!

I don't turn into the devil when I drive the wife's mini Cooper - but I do look a bit silly.  I'm not small and I'm too old to look anything other than a sad old boy!

Interesting use of 5/4.  Sounds like something Zappa would've done.  Nice work!'

I haven't had a chance to listen to stuff in a while... Got a few minutes... so I scrolled down the Originals page, saw this title, saw who it was by, and popped in...

This is just crazily good :D

Can't figure out how it came about or what made you do it... but I'm glad you did... and that someone else bumped it so I could see it.

Excellent stuff :)
