Why yes I am spamming you this evening

Two things.

The Adventures of Sexy Batman on "Hark! A Vagrant". Your liver might explode from laughter. Or you might curl into a quivering ball of terror. Or both.

The music video for "The City", Patrick Wolf's new song from his new album, soon to be released. Booming piano. Epic drums. A saxophone. A beach. The 1980s. Top of the morning!

I poked through the YouTube comments on Green Light and apparently he was really unhappy about the original video that he posted... a lot of fans were like, where did it go? I liked that version! Can someone repost? And a bunch of people were going to, but then he said on his Twitter that he was embarrassed by it, and they were all like, nah, we don't want to make him uncomfortable so we won't.

Poor Patrick. I think the squeakiness embarrassed him. And he does seem really meh at the end of the recording. But it's lovely that his fans are being sweet and respectful and not a bunch of douchecocks. I would like to give the Stump fandom a hug.

I think he must just be very nervous. Wouldn't you be?

Oh, that makes me so happy. Fans of Patrick Stump seem to be, as a trend, generally pretty chill. Pete Wentz got all the crazies, I think. So... Good for him. I kinda wanted the original version, too, but oh well. The update is cool.

Is it weird that I sympathize like, COMPLETELY? I draw something and I know it's not as good as it could be but I'm SO EXCITED to post it and get a reaction that I do anyway and twelve hours later I'm having cold sweats and can't sit still. I mean, like, I've left work and gone to the coffee shop to take shit down and update and tinker before. So. I kinda get it.

Good god, yes. I just. I WORRY, OKAY? I don't want him to freak out and burn out or just be completely fucking miserable or whatever for the sake of putting out music. It's painfully obvious why Pete was frontman in FOB, dude. Like. Really. It irritated me for years, but now I'm kinda rethinking that.
