Just shared the video on Facebook, to which my creative writing teacher responded that she loved it, and she ended up sharing it as well.

The more I think about it, the more I think this song will be a bigger deal than I originally thought.

Agreed. At least on my own Facebook, it's getting more attention than Tacky did yesterday. I already have about as many likes as I do for Tacky, and it's been shared twice.

I thought it would get responses from more of my Facebook friends, especially those majoring in English. I've only gotten one comment so far, as opposed to when I posted the "Tacky" video and got multiple likes, comments, and a share.

I liked the "split infinitive" joke on the original animatic :)

Is this the first time we have heard a recent demo? And I am sure that if this song get's performed live, Al will practice the beginning. After all, it was only a demo
