[edit] Trivia/Info

  • A later Dial-A-Song re-appearance of this song featured John Flansburgh saying that this was their "very first song on their very first demo." The song is the same, though the "ba-boo" continues on much longer after the music fades at the end.
  • This song was written to the built-in demonstration of the drum machine the Johns had purchased in the band's earliest days.
  • This demo was recorded in 1983, or possibly earlier, as Dial-A-Song began in that year.
  • There seems to be sampling from "On Broadway" (by George Benson) at about 0:44.
  • Includes drums from a demonstration album of drum beats, possibly David Crigger's Drum Drops.
