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....)

How wonderfully quirky and crazy! Such gorgeous vocals and delightful quasi disgusting sound effects! Perfect frivolous and fun fodder. Very Gouda!
[avatar]
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]
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]
Wow! So fun and ridiculous. Really does make me want cheese. A truly impressive pile thereof.
[avatar]
Bonkers skirmish, hugely original and creative! NOW THAT’S HOW TO DO IT
[avatar]
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]
Deeply satisfying.
[avatar]
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]
ewww! :-) Let's do it again! Great, how wonderful!!!
[avatar]
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]
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]
I love this, the duet just kills it! The parenthetical parts might be my favorite.
[avatar]
This is so much fun - bet you had a great time recording all the 'noises' Lol.
[avatar]
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]
That explains why cheese costs so much. I never knew the process was so involved.
[avatar]
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]
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]
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]
You wild things are both are made for this. Glad you’re back!
[avatar]
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]
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]
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]
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]
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]
Truly impressive.
[avatar]
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 🤣😂
