This song won the fan bidding contest, and I fell in love with it. I believe it to be a great choice. Eric sends this out to Aubrey who can "turn the lead sleeping in his head to gold".

  • @streetvan1997 I'm thinking about exactly that. If the bidding had been higher, it would be worth it to me. But I am not getting enough bids to do songs that no one has heard. I think you will start seeing more of what you're suggesting in the near future. I will still pick unknown songs from the bid list to do from time to time, but, with the bids being so low, i can't make a business out of it or even pay the cost of the work. So, you're right. Thanks!!

  • Aaron, you have a gift. from 30 years ago to today, you kept these 'tronics to perfect "health" as i would say. what you are doing to these bots are the greatist thing i could ever see from you. Thank you and Chris Thrash for bringing The Rock-afire Explosion back!

  • I can't get this out of my head because of your amazing use of repurposed and reprogrammed animatronics. It lends a lot to the song, and vise versa. It's strangely moving and almost haunting- and gives an eerie feeling, similar to the Bradbury story "there will come soft rains". I feel as if they are left alone playing after we have all been reduced to irradiated ashes at the end of the world.

  • I get the feeling that when the people have gone, and the earth is empty, the machines will keep on singing for mechanical ears.

  • @ooweirdoo YESSSSS!

  • this is so bizarre but I'm not gonna lie....I sort of enjoyed it 

  • what the fuck is this??

  • Better than acid.

    

  • You know, this is probably the 15th time I've rewatched this video and until today I never noticed the standing syringe on the electric keyboard at 0:12 . The video is wonderful, the song catchy, the music excellent, the editing cuts brilliant, and the Uncanny Valley Violations significantly disturbing yet enrapturing to ensure the propagation of fan-worship. Shades of the Muppet Show with great charm and a lingering "creep me the fuck out" factors which make it all the more addictive.

  • there is 1 in barbours ville at billy bob's wonderland!

  • @fanprograms whats the red stuff injected into the band????

  • @robotleg619 freak
