The strips are from the El Goonish Shive series, drawn by Dan Shive at http://www.egscomics.com

The lyrics were written by Dan Shive.

This version of the song was sung by Littlefox & CK.

The character that sings in the comic is named Ellen, she's in love with Nanase (cockatoo-haired-guy who's in fact a girl).

The long-haired girl that sings by her side doesn't really exist, that is how she looked when she sang it while performing for her group.

This is my second version of this scene. The first one is here:

  • anyway I could get this song?

    I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I watched ur other one but I like this version better

  • Maybe you could try sniffing it, I lost the soundtrack :/

  • @LECyr4 I suggest downloading the video from youtube, there are various methods for most of webbrowsers. Then convert it into mp3 file...

  • What he said.

  • I'm glad that by the time I found EGS, and got to the song, someone had created this... It's beautiful. It gets in my head real deep and it won't leave, so I think I'll be boosting the views on this for some time.

    A serious thanks to everyone who made this possible.

  • @apoc326 Woaw, thanks =)

    I only clipped pics together to both songs, I wish I could show it to the singers and musicians...

  • Hey. Is that a demonic duck of some sort? *runs away*

  • Kirochi didn't mention that the long-haired girl is actually an alternate universe version of Ellen, the memories of whom the skimpy-dress main universe Ellen has up through around age 18.

    It all makes sense, honest! Ok, maybe not from this post, but, um... Is that a Demonic Duck of some sort!?

  • do you, perchance, have a copy of the chords for this song? I'd love to be able to play it.

  • Wow, I always thought this was a real song before EGS. Until today, I had no idea Dan wrote it. I guess he's just that good at lyrics.

  • this is a wonderful rendition of the song, i have yet to hear a better version, add on top the scenario that this is taking place in, (because i doubt anyone who doesn't read el goonish shive watched this, pitty to its a good song even if you dont know the contexts) and it creates a wonderful enhancement to the comic as well as being a great song all on its own

  • Despite the fact that I like the other version of this song more, maybe cuz I heard it first, I do like the fact that this has no dislikes.

    If you dislike this in response to my comment I will find and burn you. And where you live. And where you grew up.

  • I smell an emmy.....

  • That was really well done. You have my respect, that was beautiful.

  • Was that song aimed at Nanase? Or was it just a coincidence? Who knows?!

  • y'know...thinking about the fact this version is by two different girls, i realize...if you want the two girls effect, simply do the video with only one voice recording as normal, then add the recording a second time with a slight position difference. easy. "duet effect with a solo singer done easy."
