A New Song For Your Delectations
🕑 Added 2023-05-10 16:40:14 +0000 UTCMy dearest Eggies, here I am - after too long - once again sending you an electronic missive. It has certainly been the most intense few weeks of work I have ever encountered - which is surely a gratifying sign that the Jazz Emu Enterprise is tumbling ever forward in a bemusing and thrilling way.
TLDR: Here is tomorrow's new music video, early for you specialest of people. We love it. I hope you do too. Please add it to your playlists when it lands on streaming platforms tomorrow.
TSTMM:
It's been a tumultuous Life Segment, and I have barely stopped the last couple of months. Just this week I have:
- performed at a venue that many of my heroes of played, and I always dreamed of playing, London's Hammersmith Apollo. I have been supporting Youtubers Game Grumps on their tour, they've been treating me very well and it's been really interesting to perform to large crowds of people who (for the most part) have little to no idea of who I am. When it works, it really feels good. I've been welcomed most warmly and believe I've made some new fans and friends along the way which is a delectable treat.
- released a music video with UKTV Channel Dave, as their entry to Eurovision. A really interesting process - they came to me very last minute (just a couple of weeks before the intended shoot date) with the idea, and asked me to write a song for them in my style. My first job of this type, and I'm really pleased with how it came out. Honestly the day of the shoot was a wonderful thing - all the bits I adore about making these videos (running about in little outfits, singing my heart out, being pampered by nice people rubbing moisturiser on my face) without the things that I find a lot harder (getting stuff in a van, running into things with the van, rubbing moisturiser into my own eyes by accident). A properly paid job doing the thing I've been practicing for the better part of a decade - I really felt like I was 'doing it' and felt like a special little boy.
- performed a song at a little Eurovision competition in London, full of acts I really love. I'm performing a new song, which I think is really joyous - though in my typical fashion lyrically overwrought - I'm in a cafe now running through the lyrics in my head and realising they key is at least two tones too high for me to sing adequately. Johnk bless me in this quest. I'm really pleased with this song and feel confident it'll make it to a music video and Spotify release at some point. Catchy, as they say, as heck, though I say so myself.
- released a new song and music video, which I'm attaching above. When I get another moment to come up for air on this tour, I'll give you a proper breakdown. In fact, let's do a live breakdown of it on Youtube when I'm back from tour. I'll enjoy that, and I know Hunter would like to unpick some of his masterful visual work on it.
I really hope you enjoy it. It'll be out on Spotify etc at midnight tonight (Miami time). Love to you all, thank you for helping to me afloat in this variously unsettling, exciting, confusing, thrilling chunk of this crazy thing I call Life, and which you also call Life.
I have so much more to say about everything going on, but it may need to wait.

No lie this song has inspired me to improve my life in little ways and extend that little extra effort to be nice to future me

I listened to this song on repeat when it was released about... I think 14 times in a row before coming up for air π€ Still find it gets stuck in my head when things remind me of it...

How do you do it? Banger after banger. I hope I get to see a live show someday.

This song is already completely stuck in my head. I say thanks in semi-exasperation as I will now be singing it for hours - but it's a banger, as they say! What an exciting update. I'm so glad people are giving you $ to be yourself (and lathering your face with moisturizer to boot)!

It's actually a pull string on my back, when released I emit one new song and video. There are over 100 stock phrases!

With all the work youβve been putting in lately, do you have a battery compartment on your back? Or do you run on whiskey?
