Chat Art: Songs

Larry and I share a lot of music, and end up illustrating it in our drawings. This drawing by Larry is from "Nice Weather for Ducks" by Lemon Jelly (to see the Quicktime animated video, click here), with its chorus of "All the ducks are swimming in the water."

More of the same. I drew the ducks, Larry drew the tank.

Another song we like is Saltwater (Thrillseekers Remix) by Chicane, which uses a Clannad song. The lyrics are in Gaelic, and part of the chorus sounds exactly like "Follow the dwarf all the day," to me. This drawing illustrates that imperative nicely.

Another song is "Who Do You Love Now?" by Riva with Danii Minogue. We couldn't figure out one line, which is "you're lost inside it," and Larry suggested it might be "you're mustard-sided." So the yellow on the sides of people in our drawings is mustard.

Here we have ferrets swimming in the water, because I had to run some flea baths after Vasilissa escaped for a day and came home with fleas. Hence, the greenish shampoo on the heads of the four brown ones who share a cage, and the grey one looks on (Ysabella, who wasn't exposed and didn't need a bath). Larry drew everything but the shampoo on the heads.

Another dwarf, by me, with Larry adding a stream of urine and one of those Amazonian fish that can swim up a urine stream and hence into the body, and the exploded diagram of same. I drew the water level in, since it has to happen underwater. Just ignore the green thing.

Here, Larry has designed a new mascot for the Libertarian Party, Sam the Liberty Virus, and added some song references.

This dates back to an outdoor jazz concert that featured David Sanborn, the master saxophone player. Some guy sitting near us yelled out, "Blow that horn, baby boy!" which cracked us up. Good thing you're telling him how to do it! "This horn right here? Is that what I'm supposed to do?" anyway, I drew most of this.

Here's a nice one by Larry.

This one is also by Larry. It is referring to when Larry came to see me in a production of Little Mary Sunshine with the Mountaineer Players, at the Forest Theater in outer Bremerton, WA. It is an outdoor theater, open to the elements, and part of the 100-year tradition there has always been to go on with the show, no matter what the weather. And the day Larry was here to see it, having come all the way from California, we had an incredible pounding rain. Everyone was soaked, and you couldn't hear the singing over the pounding rain noise, it was incredible.

Can you spot them all? In addition, "Pink Parakeet" by Stan Ridgway, "Lovebox" by Groove Armada, and the usual animal poo in the background.
