Ron, Brain and Janne,

Hi, thanks for posting your nice comment. In my intro to this song I wrote it won't be much of a succes. Well, I noticed that is the case.
People might think I was having fun at the expense of the target group. Although that is not at all the case, I knew that making this song this could happen.
So no whining on my part, just keep going.

David makes the points I might make about the topic far more eloquently than I can, so I'll just leave it at that.
I do appreciate your thoughts on corporate responsibility. That's another complicated topic.
Always enjoy listening to your music, looking forward to your next!

Hi Ron, I don't use much fx on my vocals. Just an eq and compressor for vocals (in general) from Native Instruments, a reverb and delay from Fabfilter and that's it.
So thanks for that. And you joined David C in his comment on the topic, so I would recommend you to read what I wrote to him (post above this one).
This is not the case, I meant state-/ corporate responsability AND learn to overcome the shame yourself, by accepting who you are (last part of the song/video).
But of course I can't describe all issues about obese in a song from 4 minutes, that also has the intention of being a bit joyful.

Good work from both of you, good lyrics, good band, good bass.
Marty's vocals could be a bit louder in some places, but overall it was a very enjoyable listening experience.

Wish there was an "un-see" button for the video though sick

Hi Brain, thanks for this. But Marty wasn't singing. I did all of that. Marty played the bass and was laughing loud, but not in the mike.
I am not experienced enough to build 'unsee' buttons in YT, or videos that can do it themselve. Will you help me with that?
Or... go to my SC page!

And excellent video, it had many funny moments, like the fat statue and Napoleon. And I got hungry watching those pizza slices laugh I think I need some more fat, because I'm freezing outside so easily wink
Janne

Ha Janne, that is indeed one of the 2 points I wanted to make in the song. The rest was a brief description of the sensitivities involved in this topic.
Have you seen me in one of those photo boards (appears last in the bottom center)? The one with the sunglases and the grey hair...
Thanks for your nice comment!

Hope you all have a very nice day today,
Hans
