Sounds like a cross between Danananananananakroyd and Sky Larkin and something I've never heard before. The drummer is really good! Everything is good. I like how the bass does it's own thing. Backing vox are great.
@ElHanko Chris Sievey (the man behind Frank Sidebottom) appears as both Frank and as himself (the last guy in the 'panel of judges') in our video. Hence the tags!

Fucking hell, the drummer is good. He even mutes his snare in that pause at 1:11. He's thought of everything.

Fact: Humans are 20% more likely to have an orgasm if they are listening to The Answering Machine.

@IThinkIMightBeRobert Only 20%?
Slackeroo101 10 months ago
@Slackeroo101 Correction: 20% for most Answering Machine songs. It can get much higher. For example, "Oklahoma" will increase this likelihood by 88%.

@IThinkIMightBeRobert Awesome. Any songs that give you a maximum 100% orgasm?
Slackeroo101 8 months ago
@Slackeroo101 There's no one song, but if you play every TAS song and every Green Day song at the exact same time, the entire world has an orgasm.

@ElHanko
"Why is this song tagged: 'frank, sidebottom'??" - probably because hes in the video if you had watched it before kicking off

This is a great song and a really emotive video too - a lovely story. That first dummy is just too scary but the happy one at the end is real sweet x
