A while back I was asked to submit a song for an Atom and his Package tribute album, "Upend Atom," which is coming out soon on Hartless Hind records and also features songs by MC Chris, The Zambonis, Zolof the Rock n Roll Destroyer, Steinbeck, and an MC Lars track featuring ME! I decided I'd redo my cover of "Mad Lib," with brand new nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc. supplied by my e'er-interactive fanbase through LiveJournal. And to make this version suck less, I had the ever-wonderful Curt Allen return on the loud thing with the strings!

Awesome work on the cover. Sounds better than the original.

Beefy!

I've always liked "Mad Lib," I think for the humor of using the refrain out of an old camp song... This version is cleaner, sharper, and very, very well done. Sounds great!

It does sound good, but it's so short shouldn't it just be mad mad mad? I never knew this was a cover and always thought of it more as a, GASP, serious song! Now isn't THAT funny! I love you 'box. Ok, you too, Shoe.

PS - I meant serious for Worm Quartet. Which it's NOT WQ, which means WQ ISN'T serious. Not even for one song. Ok, sorry for 2 comments in a row (I'm trumping up your numbers).

I... erm... uh... shit. This is catchy as hell, and I have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER what it's about. Thanks for the earworm, Shoe. No, really. Yeesh.

Let's see if I'm filling in all the blanks correctly: Adam And His Package turned Joni Mitchell's "The Circle Game" into a Mad-Lib, then Worm Quartet covered that, and now WQ has done a remake of the cover of the spoof of the original...with new words? I'm dizzy, but I like it.

Heh, Mr. Box? Haven't heard that one before... Anyway, great job WQ!

Catchy as hell! And it's an improvement over the SVGM version by a long shot. Good job!
