hello young lovers!!!

ok this one might not have been as truly stunning as lil' beethoven was but that's because it built off of the developed style in its predecessor. it was still utterly jaw dropping and so clever. i'm mad at the bbc for killing dick around tho!!! gonna pull a rage against the machine, get invited on the bbc, then flip them off at the end of my song :3 i don't even know what to say it's truly fabulosa.

faves: dick around (WHEN THE GUITARS COME IN!!!!! IT'S SO GOOD I LOVE IT!!!! MAKES ME WANT TO BE LAZY!!!!), (baby baby) can i invade your country (i especially love the alternate version!! as much as i love goof ahh songs using the star spangled banner (cough cough goodnite dr. death), the lyrics are soooo freaking funny in the alt ver. i think it's so funny just how masked the innuendo is because there's so much political jargon in this song sometimes you just stop and wonder what the narrator's real goal is. also ringo!!!! ringo moment!!! woo!), here kitty (again, is it an innuendo, or is this just a fireman doing his job?) as i sit down to play the organ at the notre dame cathedral (IT'S SO GOOD. RON IS AMAZING AT PIANO.) perfume (yes i do get name jumpscared), rock, rock, rock (raaagh!!!! guitars!!!!!), metaphor (as a part-time chick, i do dig d-i-g metaphors, especially the ones sparks writes), waterproof (i love the way he says it :3), there's no such thing as aliens (☝️🤓), the very next flight, we are the claaaaaash (it's so weehee! so joyous so triumphant!) so yeeessss again. for the 20th time in a row. all of them are amazing

in terms of covers, we have yet another that doesn't feature the sluts, but there are a bunch of rabbits, which are animals known for reproducing fréquemment. sorry about the french i got the primal urge to put it in. i also like how the deluxe version is cooler toned. i like the subtle differences. you can also see this difference (pretty much exactly the same) in the 40th edition of no. 1 in heaven. very slay, another banger cover from the mael brothers from sparks
