Title
Too Much Stuff
The degree to which this song is based on the truth of my life is more than I feel comfortable admitting. This song could also be about you or someone you know. If it is, seek counseling. Also note that I make four separate references to four different Jim Henson productions for no reason whatsoever. Can you spot them?

I'm trying to GET RID OF a lot of my stuff as I too have too much stuff. Watch my LiveJournal for sales. :)

I am *so* guilty of this song!! Very well done!! One of your best new songs.

Thank you, Luke, for inspiring me to clean up some of my crap. It seems I suffer from the same syndrome.

They include: Sesame Street, The Muppets, Fraggle Rock, and Labyrinth. Great song, Luke. No wonder we got along so well when I met you at Dragon*Con last year: we're both collecting junkies.

Ok, so I don't know when it'll happen, but I'm sure somewhere down the line, a Luke Ski cover album thing will come along. When that happens, I call this song. I think if I claim it this early in the game, I should be able to get it.

Hee. You got me with the ending. I love it. Now go do something about all that stuff! :)

Yeah, i can relate as well. When i was a kid, when it said "collect 'em all"on the back of the Masters of the Universe figures...that wasn't a suggestion to me. It was an order.
Great song, Luke!

Oh, man ... can my wife and I identify with this song! Did you sneak in and look at my garage before you wrote this song? (Or my living room, or my dining room, or ...) Great song!

Hey, have you been spying on me? Sure sounds like this song is based on me. :-)

Very very clever, nice job Luke.

Even now, I think of someone suffering from this... and contemplate what I call "constructive arson."

Looking in the basement while typing this, I feel the same way. Very accurate and well done song.

Nice job, Luke. I'm far to embarrassed to admit what I had to rent a storage unit for. Apart from the bodies, that is.

It's all relative... you're a minimalist compared to me and Josh. Great job!

I wasn't gonna leave a comment because there's, like, already so many and you just SANG about too much stuff, so I wasn't sure if I actually SHOULD tell you good job and all that, because it IS getting rather cluttered in here, and if I start gushing over Luke Ski then I might not stop because I can tend to ramble ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON to the point of utter annoyance and, honestly, a really really really really really really cluttered comment, which kind of defeats the PURPOSE of this song... so maybe I SHOULDN'T leave a comment... god, I'm so TORN... clutter Luke with praise or help him with his problem by NOT leaving a comment... Ohhhhhh! I can't decide!!! So I'm just going to push the Leave Comment butto

This reminds me of my poem: You Can Never Get Enough Stuff When Your Junk Picking by Art Paul Schlosser Well since we can all use a few more things/ Than we should all look for a few more things/ After all one person's junk is the next persons pearl worth a great price/ So since you can never get enough things we should build closets/ But since each house can only have so many closets we need to put things in rooms/ And since houses only have so many rooms we need more houses/ But properties only have enough room for 1 or 2 houses so maybe we need to buy a farm/ A farm is nice but once the mansion the size of a warehouse is built than you need guards to protect your stuff/ The guards will need living quarters so maybe it would be nice to own a country to put all your stuff and living quarters for everyone not to mention the companies you could start up to sell the things you find or other companies to fix the things that didn't work as good/ Well by now I'm thinking if we just bought the Planet maybe there would be enough room for all the stuff and the people involved/ But wouldn't it be nice if we could store some of the stuff on the moon or mars than we would have more room to put more stuff here/ Well maybe if we talk to God,He would sell us the Universe, do you think that would be enough room for all the stuff we could get ? Also I really love the Dr Phil idea and thought your song was quite funny.
