It's the sweetest song I've ever heard. I'll be her filthy gibbering lunatic, always.
"Always" may not last for long, though, once she hears a song that compares one's beloved to a "quasi-ichthyan angel". It's the sentiment that counts, not the literal interpretation, OK?

I've listened to Escape Pod, the science fiction short-story podcast, for four years now. And lately I have become increasingly awed by one of the newer hosts, Norm Sherman. His writing is acerbic, his delivery is deadpan, the guy is just so cool and funny. On the most recent EP episode he played…
It's been a couple of weeks since the last progress report, and Emmy is getting concerned.
So what's the status of the book, anyway?

As previously mentioned, SteelyKid has started to get into pop music. In addition to the songs in that post, she's very fond of Katy Perry's "Roar," like every other pre-teen girl in the country, and also this Taylor Swift song:
I've seen a bunch of people rave about this, but honestly, I found it…
The demonization of Pete Stark begins. Wouldn't you know it would be Michelle Malkin ("imprisonment for being brown is OK!"), and it would be in WorldNutDaily (your daily source of raving right wing lunacy), and she's appalled that he has called someone a "fruitcake" in the past. Why, that's a…
Finally. A love song that doesn't make my flesh crawl.
That was beautiful! :*-)
That was so much better than Fishmen. It's so original.
Wow, and I just read the H.P. Lovecraft story on which this song is based just a few days ago.
Talk about eerie.
Awwwwwww.

I always suspected PZ and his family were fishmen.
Does anyone else think this song would have been even more awesome if it had Glen Benton on back up vocals?
Man, that's sweet!
Ah, sweet sea creature love.
But Ol' Greg has a mangina...

I haven't got a clue what THIS song is about but the video is squiddy:

Norm Sherman's songs ROCK! May I recommend also Radioactive Runaways (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xgkBRAmNPw)? You can't go wrong with a song about a giant radioactive turtle.
Don't forget to prepare the children for Dagon and Cthulhu from a very young age! This will help a lot:

I'll have to ask Janine if there are other songs with this lyric phrase, "your bulging, watery eyes" -- that's sweet.
That song is truly awesome.
But where are the immolated goats?
I can't blame the TW™ for being angry if you call her quasi-ichthyan.
I hear she wore the most wonderful jewelry.
But like a commenter above, I just finished reading this short story about 3 days ago. The elder gods must be trying to tell me something.
This is the kind of song i would use to serenade a woman.
Maybe that is why I am still single . . .
Yes, Norm Sherman's music is hilarious. My favorite so far is "Pimp My Satellite," a hardcore gangsta rap EastCoast/WestCoast style about Russia's deteriorated space program (as if we were still in the space race and America is completely oblivious to the fact.)
"Step up your product,

With a telescope that rules
