Title: Jimmy Webb
Post by: stepheninchicago on November 05, 2009, 05:40:44 PM

i'm revisiting the Jimmy Webb story...my god, this has me in tears.

Now, I want a ringtone of "Wouldnt'cha like to fly in my baloooo-ewwwww-oooon" for when my better half calls.

just wanted to share that.

Yes - I think I mentioned it in the Best Moments thread, but that balloon stretch out got listened to 15 or 20 times.

Any talk of MacArthur Park immediately makes me think of my favorite Dave Thomas/SCTV moment:

I've probably listened to Tom singing Macarthur Park eight times now. It just kills me.
