"Freeze The Saints" by Stephen Malkmus [from Face the Truth]
"Ain't No Good" by Cake [from Motorcade of Generosity]

Hey, you dhould be busy doing your tune for Calfborg.

Since I haven't seen Dre around, someone should do a song from Feldspar's list.

I may be stepping on your giftgiver's toes, but apparently they've got cold feet so they may not notice. Besides, you asked for it. Hehe.
Nobody gets left behind!

Damn!!!
This is frickin' hilarious, Jim. Nice rap chops, I am surprised, didn't know you had it in ya. and lifting samples much like we would likely do. We dig it, very entertaining, and very nice of you to do so. We are most grateful. If our gifters picked the same song we'll have some fun comparisons to do. Thanks again Jim, we love it. Viva Gift of Music!!!

Maybe Dre is working on another video - like he did for the Phunt Themesong

Johnny Cashpoint and Sausage Boy would like to thank EddieBangs for his time in setting up the GOM page by offering Big Jilm

Just when I thought GOM was over...

This is so totally cool. I laughed my ass off- It's just as good if not better than the original. Very nice job- thanks guys, you made my day! I will post this to the page soon.

-Eddie

If all else fails, Blue, take the hard drive out and slave it in another computer. You wouldn't believe how many times I've had to do that, and how many times its saved me.

Märk · Post by **Märk** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 5:28 pm

what does it do when you try and turn it on? nothing? not even a power light? if so, you either broke something beyond repair, or shifted the mainboard or another component so it's grounding out on the case. take all the components out of the case, including the mainboard, make sure nothing is actually broken or cracked, and re-assemble. Might work. Or do what sausageboy suggested.

That is what you get for Multi-tracking. What happened to the good old days when you recorded everything live to two track like GBV?

Ditto Jim - Sensational!

After that and your "Theopholis Thistler", you're gonna be chucked out of the Guy-tar Union

i just wanted to check in to say that my gom is recorded and i'll have it up ASAP, so don't panic, Calfborgians.

Hey, I was totally tied up recording our "Jedi Princess" when the deadline came and these were posted, so I never got around to thanking the HipCola for his "Walk Like an Egyptian".

Wow, what can I say? A totally cool cover - initially very true to the original, but then veering off in pursuit of its own inner self. The new take on the whistling thing was a nice touch. What seemed at first to be a highly skilled remake morphed into a surprising and very pleasing interpretation. Thanks, man. This will go right alongside my two existing copies - the radio version and the extended dance mix, and I will enjoy it every bit as much as the original.
