I most certainly want to go to the previous establishment

I don't get this one

That first pretty crazy to reference, wno all would know that movie?

It's so fast!

I loved the sinkhole before the movie came out.

Bad things happen in the bathroom...

Yeah the music is on point, and the burger of the day and store names are great.

My favorite was the episode where Marshmallow sings to their parents. It was such a genuine and heartfelt moment, and I feel like there's very few shows (let alone cartoons) that can evoke that kind of emotion. Downright incredible, and this show just keeps getting better and better in my opinion. The music has always been good (in an often endearingly cheesy kind of way), but this moment just felt so real.

I have to imagine that the creators base much of the show off of their real world experiences. You just can't make some of that stuff up.

Might not be my favorite music in the show but my favorite story about the music in the show.

I forget where I heard it but I listened to the creator of the show talk about making the intro song and he ended up doing something that I both admire a lot and find genuinely hilarious.

If you're a musician you may have experienced or be familiar with the idea of chasing the demo. If not, a quick definition is trying to recapture the vibe or quality of an initial rough recording when you're laying down final professionally recorded takes.

When the creator was trying to figure out an intro for the show he was screwing around on his ukulele just trying to find like a fun chord progression. He found one he liked and quickly recorded it on his phone. The plan was to just use that recording as a jumping off point he would take and flesh out with more "serious" instruments and recording techniques later on. The thing was, nothing they did captured how that initial phone recording felt. Now, This isn't abnormal. It happens all the time in fact. Normally youd just suck it up and get as close as you can while maintaining the quality of your recordings. Because you just can't use a cruddy recording on a professional production. After all, nobody outside of who made the song will know that you failed to match the exact vibes of your rough phone recording. So they did the most logical thing and used the low quality phone recording as the FOUNDATION FOR THE FINAL INTRO.

And when you listen you can totally tell. Especially if youre like me and have recorded an untold number of rough takes on your phone over the years. It's clearly a phone recording riddled with those telltale phone recording artifacts.

But y'know what? He was right. It totally works. It's frankly a great intro and I couldn't imagine the show with a different one.

Edit: I figured out where I heard it. Episode 8 of The Song Exploder podcast.

Really great podcast in general if you're at all interested in music production.

It's such a shame that they've clearly scaled back the amount of music (musical scenes) in the episodes.

Hard disagree, I find the song episodes tedious and painful...

I dropped the show because of too much singing. The songs were great but it really dislike that kind of stuff.

That's a reference to the Blues Brothers movie

The people that open these businesses are punners first and business people second :o
