Blue Tail Fly

[jrkepler]

Burl Ives > this song

It sounds like a Bob Dylan impersonator

As for the video. its as good as others you've done.

[bowlingballout]

@jrkepler

I didn't know it was a competition.

Considering I'm a hack on the guitar and with vocals, and Burl Ives is an American Institution, I'll consider having his name posted, in any respects, on my video a compliment.

As for Bob Dylan thing... I think I like the usual comparison to The Dead Milkmen better.

XD

Thanks for watching.

[morenewman]

[bowlingballout]

@LawayneWilliamson

I didn't realize how good it was until I was watching the playback. Looks like I need to do the old shirtless yard work with sunscreen only on my arms and neck routine a couple of times to try ane even things out a bit.

:)

[smartbluecat]

All the lols for you!

:o)

[ratkenrat]

fantastic song fantastic video

[canadianstudmuffin]

...and I thought I could sing! :P

[efbeckley]

sorry it took me so long to get here. i think this is the most surreal video on yt. your performance of the song is great and the video is awesome. it must take a lot of work to put it all together. thanks, i really enjoyed it!

[RailbirdPictures]

Dulcet tones ... I like it. You sound like a reader.

[bowlingballout]

@RailbirdPictures

At times I am... but certainly a lover of our language. I learned that one from, of all places, Pinocchio. Not the Disney version, but the actual original translation from Italian. It is definitely a near college level read. The cricket gets killed early on by Pinocchio when he throws a mallet at him and hits him squarely when he won't shut up.

@1mamage

Drinking whiskey instead of working then celebrating after an industrial accident that kills the boss... I think.

Thanks for commenting

[Deoxysapple]

See, this version is much better than that CD version, because it has about 1/4 the number of verses and it doesn't sound like it was recorded on someone's answering machine!

[bowlingballout]

@Deoxysapple

You're memory is stellar as always

[CasaDeCucaracha]

Lol epic cover song dude!

[bowlingballout]

@CasaDeCucaracha

[PurpleHazeGoofyGrape]

hahha, all time classic!!! always wonder who that Jimmy was? : ) blue tail flies, dang!

[bowlingballout]

@PurpleHazeGoofyGrape

Bees and wasps are bad enough, I'd hate to get bitten by a flies too.

:)

[RailbirdPictures]

Why is this better when you disconnect your head and make it incredibly large?

No really. Why?

I mean, it is better that way, but I need to know why!!!!

Also, you're a little touched, but in a a good way. ☻☻

[samspoofd]

@RailbirdPictures hahaha i dont know why but it makes the video hilarious

[bowlingballout]

@RailbirdPictures

Fer

I have to have a gimmick to help distract from the dulcet tones of my voice...

:D

[RegulasDark]

I really like the style of this. Good work on the green screen, it looks a lot better then mine.

[bowlingballout]

@RegulasDark

Nick

You can see where I over did it a bit and my legs get a bit transparent at times.

[JustinBasl]

[TheChrisDahl]

@1mamage global domination by flies

[mrcartoonmusicvideo]

great job, lots of layers i'm hooked on animation man.

[bowlingballout]

@mrcartoonmusicvideo

It is definitely a fun medium to play with... Always trying to push a bit further than the time before.

[tpindell]

THIS IS FUNNY HOW DID U MAKE IT LOL

[bowlingballout]

@tpindell

I used After Effects to attach the head to the body and then did general editing with Premiere. Between recording the song and all the editing I bet it took about 25-30 hours.

[tpindell]

@bowlingballout damn thats some good time. Well none the less it came out great. good job

[mrsbowlingballout]

OMG! it's uploaded ! yay ! love that dance, shaking that ass hun.... woohoo... Lets all do that dance.... yeah baby ! I'll see you tonight ;-p

[bowlingballout]

@mrsbowlingballout

[CVersailles]

Great voice! It's perfect for that song...

[bowlingballout]

@CVersailles

It's hard to mess that song up.

:O)

[TheBootscooter222]

[bowlingballout]

@The25bear

HillBillies rule!

Thanks for watching

[Sugartalker]

LOL! Loved it! The big head effect was great too!

[bowlingballout]

@Sugartalker

It was fun to do, a bit tedious "sewing" the head on in After Effects but a good exercise just the same.

[hallbe]

I love that effect! A comedy series with different characters done up woud be great!

[bowlingballout]

@hallbe

I'd love to do a short take off on something like I Love Lucy or The Honeymooners with a technique like this.

[PuppyZwolle]

I would like to say this was the best sung song I'd ever heard...Lets just say some songs should have stayed lost. ;^) Still loved the performance immensely.

[bowlingballout]

@PuppyZwolle

thanks PZ!

:D

[SuperVideoHunt]

trippy...
