Spider-Sam Pop Idol...

Not really a demo, but a couple of versions of the Spiderman song that I just put together for my nephew, Sam's, 5th birthday.

Let me know which you prefer - if any. I'll find out the birthday boy's verdict later this weekend. (5 year-olds can be such harsh critics!)

I bet he liked the faster one better. That was fun!

Where the heck did you get that bed? Sounds like it was recorded off an old Belmont set speaker onto a mono Tascam from the back of a speakeasy. Was that Desi on drums? Laughing

Dead right, Melba - the energetic little sprite was grooving on down to the faster version with his party pals (I don't think the amateur bathroom crooner style is quite his thing yet!).

Actually, he got an extra version - again, of the quicker variety - this time in the style of Homer (think this was his fave, as he always insists that I do Simpsons stuff).

The bed was something I found on youtube - not always the highest quality sound source!

If you can stand it, here's Mr Simpson's take on our superhero...

The Homer version is my favorite. You sing better as Homer. Shocked

If it were just his singing voice, I wouldn't mind so much, Deby. The trouble is, I seem to be turning into Homer in too many other ways to mention in polite company... Shocked

Anyway, just for you, here's another shameless airing for the now not-so-seasonally-appropriate Simpsons number I put together in late December. Dig out that santa hat... Rolling Eyes

(PS. Homer Sings The Beatles, the album, will be in your record shops from 1 April...)

omigosh!!! I think I ruptured something!!! That was great!
Especially Flanders' "revolver" line.

Big Simpsons Freak here:

My favorite Homer line: "I have three kids and no money. Oooo, why can't I have NO kids and THREE monies!?"

Favorite line ever: "Please do not offer my god a peanut!"

Melba: Respectfully from a fellow Simpsons freak, I believe the line actually ends in the singular "money".

"I have three kids and no money. Oooo, why can't I have NO kids and THREE money!?"

But lol regardless this line is, agreed, one of the best.

EDIT: Sorry for the threadjack!

Lucas -- I thought it actually did end that way -- that was how it played in my head. But then I just thought I was wrong. Thanks for the confirmation that I can trust my memory!

Oh. My. God. Rajiv, that Simpsons Christmas song was *awesome*! Very Happy

Nice to make your acquaintance, Jodi. Thanks for the compliment. (Especially gratifying coming from a proper singer like yourself!)

Lucas, you know that threadjacking is a near-capital offense around here... The only reason I'm going to let you off is because your pedantic intervention was Homer-related. Wink

Melba, I'm glad you enjoyed the Christmas song, although I'm a little disappointed that you credited Flanders with the 'revolver' line. A certain overweight, incompetent police chief will be mighty miffed! See if you can spot the difference any better in these recent Valentines ringtones (the last clip is a free bonus).

I'm so sorry! It sounded just like Flanders to me...which made it all the funnier, of course! Laughing

True to character is the creed, but the unexpected twist pops my meter!

Come to think of it, Melba, you're right - Flanders saying that line would have been funnier! No harm in taking characters outside their boxes now and again...

Jodi, I've just enjoyed listening to 'The Lady' and 'Too Soon For Forever'. You are a proper singer, girl. No doubt about it. Cool
