Elefant.
Jesus I hate to stomp on Max’s ‘Simply Sensational’ post, but since this is a song about him, maybe he’ll forgive me. Here, I’ll time-stamp it so it’s riding underneath.
Presented in all its dorky deliciousness, ‘Elefant’, by Baby Fae’s Heart, 1984, found on a tape discovered among items from my dead mother’s estate, along with the only copy of ‘Ellen From Idaho’ known to exist, and a herd of other amazing bits of music.
I’m preparing the Ultimate Sheep Collection, and some of these tapes look and sound brand new, since my mom never played ‘em.
Thrilling, lemmetellya.
Who the ef is Joel? Sure wouldn’t want to be that dude.
Nice song. BFH killed.

BTW – you are forgiven for stomping on my Vieux Farke Toure post since I stomped on Sky’s εὕρηκα! post. Now I must beg forgiveness of the original stompee.

Yeah, Joel was a complete ***hole. Really violent. That’s why we called him ‘Elefant’ — like an elephant in a china shop, man.
Ruthless, too. Almost Pictish.

You shouldn’t hang out with a low-life like that. Sounds dangerous. All my friends are very proper at all times. Take care for your reputation good sir.

‘among all men
the elefant god
thundering shaman metal cloud
laughing black narcotic knight
is resonating clearly’
That’s pretty scary.

Whew! For a moment there I thought the song might be about me, but seeing as I’d never do drugs…

Oh, perhaps in the early semi-late mid-afternoon — but never at dusk.

No!!! It IS me!

This is actually quite a sad song, now that I’ve listened to it a few times.
There’s a lot more, including the Best Of The Brickbats — !!!
Shit, just kill me now.

More – it tells tales of your past I’ve never heard before

Probably more than Max is comfortable with revealing, actually.
Perhaps this was a dangerous post. Ahem. Nothing to see here. Move along.
At least it’s not about the sheep carcass on the massive bonfire, the orange flames flickering through the kitchen window –
Or –
Or –
Jeez I’m such an asshole.

Oh, that just earned you your own post.
