Roasted Garlic Summer Sausage

June 13, 2022 10:21 AM

From Brian David Gilbert (with Karen Han), it’s the song of the summer.

It was in my head, now it is in your head too.

That wasn't the tune I was expecting given the headline.

BDG seems to hit a lot of the right notes with quite a few people who frequent MeFi

I appreciate the amount of work that goes into these perfectly silly projects. I'm (entirely) guessing that Gilbert is figuring out how to make certain edits and effects every time, I would like to think so. I feel like he is learning and growing, I guess I'm just susceptible to what he's putting out there. I was too old, by a big margin, for Pokemon, but that presentation/rap of his just blew me away.

Here I am, an old man in a dry month. And I don't know what it is, but Brian David Gilbert makes me happy every single time he does something. It doesn't matter what it is, and it doesn't matter if I get it which, usually, I don't. I just love it. I always love it. Is that okay or is he going to Milkshake Duck at some point?

Does anyone have a link to the lyrics?

I will not be listening to this (again) because I do not want it front and centre in my brain for days (again)!

This is the first song about summer sausage I've heard since Cartman's "Swiss Colony Beef Log", and way more melodic.

I think that I prefer to back this out - if a phrase is TMNT-able, it’s also RGSS-able.

So if any of y’all have seen BDG’s ice cream video, TIL that the Charmery (Baltimore area ice cream shop called out in the video) actually saw the video and made a, um A+ Pickled Cherry Graham ice cream. With some proceeds going to Baltimore Action Legal Team.

It's one day later and it's not in my head any more; probably too generic to stick, though I'm absolutely not going to give it a second viewing to check because this brain is already crawling with far too many earworms tyvm.

Same. But the TMNT theme song sure is on repeat this morning.
