Skirmish: A Truly Impressive Pile o... (@ajna1960)

Liner Notes

Heyyy something's off about this cheese!

A little out of tune a lot on purpose. Sorry, some cheeses just stink.

#skirmish

Lyrics

I want to create a truly impressive pile of cheese I woke up and it was what I wanted to do

So I shall create a truly impressive pile of cheese Watch me fa la la la la loo

(..not even going to try and transcribe this...)

I am formulating a truly impressive pile of cheese Out of pinwheels and sprite and mountain dew

I am salivating a truly impressive pile of cheese out of my mouth…ewww. 🤢

(....yeah...no....)

@liz561

The squishing sound effects....I can't even......

[avatar]

How wonderfully quirky and crazy! Such gorgeous vocals and delightful quasi disgusting sound effects! Perfect frivolous and fun fodder. Very Gouda!

@nadine

You already got me with the beat box! I didn't expect these weird sounds to be paired with these classical vocals and ending up in a groovy scat!

[avatar]
@ambroise

This is surrealist, fun and sometimes gross. You said "cheese" and I smiled !

I love the theatrical part of it. That and the almost opera singing give a very cabaret attitude. And mixed with the raw sound it makes me think of Tom Waits.

[avatar]

OMG! I‘m speechless! Brilliant vocals btw!

[avatar]
@tfish77

Wow! So fun and ridiculous. Really does make me want cheese. A truly impressive pile thereof.

@beej

Bonkers skirmish, hugely original and creative! NOW THAT’S HOW TO DO IT

@kkd

I don't even know what to say. This was great! I loved it.

[avatar]

lovely cacophonous ode to cheese.. and.. i'm not sure what else!

[avatar]
@tiller2

Deeply satisfying.

@mal

This and cat memes is exactly what Tim Berners-Lee envisioned when he developed the World Wide Web. Forty years ago I would have been listening to you on Dr. Demento.

[avatar]

I've played some wild games of Twister in my day but this one takes the cake, er, cheese.

[avatar]

I don't know what to say except that this is the kind of FAWM content I live for.

[avatar]

Very weird and wonderful. I love it and I need to build something out of cheese now.

[avatar]
@akeli

ewww! :-) Let's do it again! Great, how wonderful!!!

@tezzin

I am laughing way too hard! 😆 Moar cheez pleez! 🧀

[avatar]

This was unique, amusing, and hilarious. LOL

[avatar]

Gotta say…I NEVER heard anything quite like this in the 10+ years we’ve been doing FAWM. A+ for originality!

[avatar]

Mmmm.. impressive. A Stilton perhaps? Or maybe Roquefort? Suddenly I need to drink Mountain Dew.

[avatar]
@heather

This is so great. Demented in the best possible way. A+ fawming!

[avatar]

I am all in on this truly impressive pile of cheese.

[avatar]
@carpeliam

I love this, the duet just kills it! The parenthetical parts might be my favorite.

[avatar]
@ragbag

This is so much fun - bet you had a great time recording all the 'noises' Lol.

[avatar]
@deadhead

This is such a creative work of art! Would love to see what the sheet music for all the non-guitar parts would look like 😂

[avatar]

Demented joy! Gogol Bordello on a drunk day. Nice vocal jump on the title line. I hope I can have as fun this February as it sounds like this song was to make.

[avatar]

Ha ha this is so entertaining! Not much else to say.

[avatar]

All the elements are wrong. But they come together to create something beautiful. Like mould in cheese, under the right circumstances. These are the right circumstances.

[avatar]
@cowex

That explains why cheese costs so much. I never knew the process was so involved.

[avatar]
@fuzzy

This teeters on the verge of chaos in the most wonderful way. This is why I love FAWM; where else am I gonna hear something this awesome?!?

[avatar]

“…out of pinwheels, Sprite, and Mountain Dew…” Haha! That’s hilarious! As always, fantastic response to the skirmish! Eww, though! haha! 🧀

[avatar]

Whimsical, slightly-sinister, vaudeville theatricality at its best! So entertaining!

[avatar]
@owling

I am not sure i want to eat cheese anymore 🤣 very funny song and i love the voice !

[avatar]

puts on musical critique facial expression

I can smell the cheese. The cheese lives deep down inside me. Near my kidneys. It moves me in such a way. Brava bravo.

👏🏻🫡🚬

[avatar]
@mikegtz

This is nasty in the best possible way!

[avatar]

😂 OMG, am I wacky? This totally made me hungry for cheese! Must have been all the drooling. Brilliant!

[avatar]

I am utterly gobsmacked ... by a truly impressive pile of cheese. Hilarious!!!

[avatar]
@willow1

You wild things are both are made for this. Glad you’re back!

[avatar]
@djtjb

This is what I've been waiting a whole year for! Beautifully off kilter. The mouth effects are top notch.

[avatar]

This is really fun and the body sound effects really make it that much more so!

[avatar]

Tom Waits Howling In Laughter To This - I am absolutely certain!! :-D

Now I'm wondering why Mel Brooks removed this song by Lili Von Shtupp from Blazing Saddles? Any way you slice it, this tune is gouda.

You're all just a bunch of cut-ups, but, what a great start to FAWM :-D

So! Much! Fun!

[avatar]

I'm finding a lot of songs about cheese. That aside.. I love to hear such creativity!

[avatar]

This is pure gold ! Dynamite. Brilliant. Excessive. Hysterical. and tonnes more bigish words :) I LOVE it.

[avatar]

I've seen some vaguely endearing piles of cheese, and some superficially inspiring piles of cheese, but you have TRULY achieved an impressive pile of cheese. I should know... I listened twice!

[avatar]
@cts

Sweet biscuits from another planet! This is all kinds of bananas...bunches of 'em. Wow. Wildly imaginative and just off the chain and then some. Y'all got it going on.

[avatar]
@brownium

That's a thing, right there! Cannot miss the hints of Tom Waits in intonation and irreverence.

[avatar]

The change in the guitar rhythm is so great. This is a bonkers song, and I mean that in the best way possible. Really fun

[avatar]

That was amazing. Rhythmic mayhem. Cheesy, wonderfully cheesy.

[avatar]
@sapient

Oh my. What have you crazy kids gone and done this time? I used to wonder what our neighbours thought I was doing during FAWM. And now I wonder about yours... Did you warn them? 😂

[avatar]

Hahaha - i love cheese

[avatar]

What a dyn-O-mite take on the skirmish! My face hurts from grinning all the way through it! I love everything about this! Wow...just...WOW!

[avatar]
@jeff9

I'm cracking up. You guys are geniuses to be able to do something like this. How can you possibly follow such a performance!

[avatar]

Oh my word this is funny! How many of you were there in this song? What a fun menagerie of cheesy sounds. My kids would add this to their playlist. This could go viral! Going to listen again.

[avatar]

All those sort of squirty background noises are at once alluring and terrifying, like stinky cheese. The high pitched vocals are a terrific juxtaposition when they come over the top of that, too.

[avatar]
@erbaer

Truly impressive.

[avatar]
@snoozin

What a great take on the song prompt! So much going on! Love it!

[avatar]

Lol, sounds like you had a great time recording this, or I have accidentally entered a bizarre cheese dream...

[avatar]

I love the mad backing! Sounds like immense fun was had making it - and it was great fun to listen to as well 🤣😂
