Big Foot
Skirmish: Cryptids! (@robinleaf)Liner Notes
#overtimeskirmish #cryptid I came across this that i had finished writing and had recorded a little bit of guitar for, so i finished it off and recorded it. Not skirmish time but the essence of skirmish and i am grouping it with the others there. SPOILER:- Found this after i had finished the song, didnt remember all the details it seems haha
(7-second clip)Lyrics
i was once affected by an episode of the 6 million dollar man steve austin met big foot there was a fight i remember it one 70s Saturday night
steve austin pulled big foot's arm off
with his super bionic strength
it wasnt realistic
but still disturbing
big foot's arm kinda fitted in his shoulder
like a ball and socket joint
no blood no bones just a click in sort of affair
i think that they made friends after that kinda generous of big foot just rip my arm off! why don't you no hard feelings you're steve austin i could probably just pop it back in

You are weird in the very best of ways. I know a lot of songwriters and no one but you could write this - and deliver it so well.

Hahaha, I like how the more disturbing part seems to be Bigfoot's lack of blood rather than Steve Austen's violent act

Had me guffawing over my muesli.

it is had to believe this was based on a real six million dollar man episode, but it was. and i believe bigfoot was played by andre the giant. wobbie does a fantastic job of reminding us of how insane television programs were back in the seventies.

"it wasnt realistic but still disturbing"
That sums up so much 70s and 80s tv 😀 This tune has bought yet another smile to my dial. Thanks Wobbie. 😎

Ok, wasn't expecting that. Big Foot seems so gentle and forgiving. What a strange story. Wobbie, what were those TV writers smoking?
Regardless that episode sounds quite inventive...and disturbing. So glad there were no hard feelings between them.

Ooh a Wobbie skirmish-not skirmish! I loved the way ‘70’s Saturday night’ just rolled off the tongue. That could have been the song hook right there. Love it. I like the shooting from the hip style of conversational writing you have going here. I’m not familiar with the 6 million dollar man - only by name. That particular episode does sound disturbing!

Oh I remember that show! I would have rooting for big foot! Of course being a boy I was a fan of the bionic woman! Ah the memories.

Coincidence - I saw a picture on fb today that showed a mysterious 'bigfoot' creature on the side of the road nearby! I remember that 6 MIllion Dollar Man episode! A fun song to remember how bad tv actually was at times!

I loved the 6 million Dollar man, in fact I though I WAS the 6 million dollar man when I was a kid. Brings back some great memories of the 70s for me. Thanks

so good! I remember that episode! My memories of it were weirder than watching it again.

Lovely! This one is funny and sweet, and it's always a treat to listen to your songs, Den!
(I like that they became friends after everything.)

Typical Wobbie brilliance. Only you could come up with this idea, and I love it!
