I Command You to Be My Woman

I wrote this for a buddy who proposed to his girlfriend via Songfight this past weekend. I couldn't write anything serious so I wrote this instead.

Full story is here.

When you make any kind of noise at all, the whole world laughs with you, man.

Ha, this is pretty great. This is what I imagine Russell Brand's Forgetting Sarah Marshall character's music might sound like.

In my imagination, the title line is delivered in a Commanding Pose, possibly wearing a Commanding Outfit.

Great song, and great story behind the song. What did she say in the end?

This is totally amazing. Your inflection is perfect.

micayetoca: She said yes (probably because of my song)

This was about eleven shades of awesome.

This is excellent, like a lost Ween track.

This makes me want to paint a wizard on a van.

I have just listened to this song for the sixth time in twenty-four hours. I am now able to do so without breaking down into uncontrollable giggles. It's like Zladko Vladcik was listening to way too much hard rock, but his girlfriend couldn't quite give up Megablast, and finally something either clicked or snapped (with Vladko it's never really clear which).

Six million years later but I posted a recent MeTa about music favorites and I found this (among other things) and I love it.

Just so y'all know, whenever I see a wizard on a van I think of this song.
