Did you email Flans? Because if you haven't, I will! :) Tried to sign up to your Myspace page but you haven't added me yet. If you're so inclined, I'd appreciate it. BTW, congratulations on your recent marriage! ND So it’s in the genes, then!

I actually wrote another verse, which had the melody going into long elaborations to get it more like Linnell's. But it just turned out cheesy. I will email Mr. Flansburgh. Why not? And yeas, I'm danish. No americano. Actually I have a grandfather from Czeck Rep. And my my great great grandfather was a piano virtuoso. I think you’re right about the Flansburghisms of the melody.

I've come to the conclusion that the melody is more Flansburgh-esque than Linnellish [;)] but the words are definitely JL (voca-BU-lary with the emPHAsis on a different sylLAble). Just a very sweet piece. You should email Flans and tell him you wrote a birthday song for Linnell and ask him to forward it to him. I think somewhere in the deep dark secret he would really enjoy hearing it. Are you Danish, or an American living in Denmark? I ask because I don't hear a trace of accent in your voice. Are all of the voices yours? Anyway, keep up the great work. This song has seriously become the earworm of my day!

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like it. It's actually a very personal song, without too much irony. I think the Johns really deserves to know how much they inspire all of us. I really appreciate your kind words! Wow! Thank you so much! I’m really glad you like it.
