Neil Gaiman googling the lyrics to “I Google You” at Amanda Palmer’s Kickstarter loft party.
Somebody was NOT expecting to be asked to sing anything, and my head was a long way from song words. Thank google for google.
Okay…so I’ve been seeing a lot of people in peril from the Madagascar 3 commercial with the ‘Circus Afro’ song on my dash. I hope this helps them escape the torture- replacing an annoying catchy song with another! ^^;
Warning- I do not recommend listening through the whole video. Your brain might explode. BE CAREFUL.

It’s over you guys…it’s actually over. Every time I have checked my email since this whole project began, I immediately click on search and type in Amanda Palmer Kickstarter. Today was the last time I can do that and feel my heart skip a beat when I see there’s a new email update.
I am so happy and excited and proud to be a minuscule of this great chain of musical revolution. Sure I wish I could have afforded a house party or an art sitting (oh my God the opportunity to paint Amanda Palmer, that’s actually one of many of my dreams) or even the big art book but I’m not sorry I can’t get it again, that’s what makes it special; how fleeting in nature this whole project is.
I know I’ll squeal like a girl when the CD comes and post a gazillion pictures and bug you all with my ‘ARGH THIS IS SOOOO AWESOME WAAAAAH’ posting but this whole experience was fucking awesome (it must be I never say Oh my God unless it’s severely warranted and I say it about 3 times a minute in conversations about this kickstarter project and Amanda Palmer in general.
I’m just sorry it’s over (for a start if it had been open another 2 weeks, I could have afforded to pledge more, but that’s besides the point - I’m happy with my pledge and Amanda Palmer’s probably reeeeally happy with the $1.2 million she raised) but I’m sure that we have definitely not heard the last of this project.
So 10, 20, 30 - however many - years down the line, when someone says
“Hey, where were you when that whole Amanda Palmer kickstarter thing went down?”
I’ll say,
“Glued to my computer screen, ravenously devouring the email updates about it; driving by boyfriend insane by playing ’Do it with a Rockstar’ on repeat until it was my most played song after 3 days; weeping uncontrollably outside the law library over ‘Trout Heart Replica’ while people walked past and looked at me like I was mental; wishing with all my might that I had more money so I could give more and be a bigger part; wishing desperately I could be in the Brooklyn area instead of in Aberdeen studying for the AFP countdown; salivating over the picture of Amanda Palmer’s rack; in short, I was there.”
I never do that whole ‘reblog if…’ rubbish but this is different. So reblog if you can say that you were there too, if you pledged and got excited everytime you checked your inbox, if you’re sorry it’s over, if you’re in mourning, if you have PAFPKSD (Post-Amanda Fucking Palmer Kickstarter Stress Disorder) or even if you just think Amanda Palmer’s rack is fucking awesome.
WE ARE THE MEDIA
so reblog if you are too.
