  • The fear of palindromes is aibohphobia. Irony

  • Pandora glitches out trying to find similar artists. Love this song!

  • cool...

  • @BlackStarKeepShining It is the last of several songs derived from his earlier work trepanation. It was written about an unusual personals ad he saw. He has made that less obvious in this one, and added several phrases that are almost palindromes (Dewey-Eyed -> Deye-Yewed) in because he thought it matched the nature of the music... and he seemingly thought of them on a long car ride. xD Enjoy!

  • Interestingly, "Fake Palindromes" is not a palindrome.

  • mom!

  • I love this song... But I don't really know what it's about to be honest. Anyone wanna help me out?

  • @SquirrellOFC I never said aibohphobia is not a palindrome I said it is not a word, which it isn't.. but yeah I get the joke

  • @FruitGod A 'palindrome' is a word that reads the same if reversed. Examples: Hannah, racecar, mum, dad. "Aibohphobia" backwards spells "aibophobia," and so it's a palindrome. It's a joke that aibohphobia is the fear of palindromes.

  • this, is love at first hear.

  • @FruitGod I guess he was making a fake palindrome then eh.
