You will be a tiger, I will be a manatee

If you have means, you should check out "Super Animal Brothers III" by EAR PWR. It is a song (and an album), and they are a band, and their song sounds like this.

It sounds like video games felt when I was six.

    All day I was trying to remember how the song went.

    then when I saw this, it all came back. Do you realize what that means? You have bottled the song!

    YOU DID IT!

    Plus, this is absolutely gorgeous. Quirky. Exciting. Clear. Unique.

    Yeah, that song does feel like this--bublegummy and sort of incomprehensible, but loads of fun!

    i haven't listened to the song, nor will i, BUT i can say with sound assurance that the song, in no way, sounds like this. BUT it is a fantastical drawring.

    I don't know the song but now I feel like I must.

    Great work Jake. I think a bit of Europe came back with you.

    i LOVE to do these kinds of things. i can think of dozens of songs i've "drawn" like this. you nailed the frenetic, psycho-candy + 1985 japanese feel of the song! nice.
