Totally appreciate what a bear it must have been to put this all together in a mix, but you've done it wonderfully well. You've done a killer, killer job on the BGVs -- also not an easy task within a mix that has so much going on. Excellent work on this Ezekiel! Love the change up at around 3:20. Good stuff!!

Thanks, Deej. The 60s and the Beatles have a tremendous influence on me.

And yeah, what a bear this must have been to mix. But holy smokes, you pulled it off perfectly! Quite a bit different than the usual fare we hear on the forum - and different in the best of ways.

The ending was great!

Congrats on a job exceptionally well done.

Best to you,

Alan
Thanks so much, Alan!

The mix on this is awesome. I know how much work must have gone into creating this one.

LOVED IT!

You're a teacher, no? Your students should now call you "The Nutty Professor". Don't worry, I'm not trying to butter you up.....Enuff already!!

This is a delightful blend of humour and catchy rhythms and I could hear Fred Schneider singing over a backdrop that sounds like “Jumping Jack Flash.” It creates a vibe that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

The lyrics are clever and thought provoking (at least to me)
“She’s a peanut butter mixer / And you can’t fix her,” sets the tone for an exploration of eccentricity and fun.
“Jelly bellies bouncing / Uncle Skippy’s pouncing.” Here, we see a playful personification of peanut butter brands and their associated products leading to a debate between “Crunchy and creamy / Smooth and dreamy”

The subsequent lines introduce an unexpected twist: “Caterpillar eyes / Liposuction thighs.” This juxtaposition brings humour through absurdity, painting a picture that is both bizarre and amusing. It seems to poke fun at societal standards while simultaneously celebrating individuality.... and HEY, I'm with you brother on that, as per my latest song.

The line “Radiation tracksuits / Politicians on mute” further amplifies this entertaining humour. It evokes images of futuristic fashion choices alongside commentary on contemporary politics—an unexpected but entertaining pairing. A current metaphorical observation perhaps??

“Peanut Butter Mixer” is not just another food-themed song; it’s an exuberant celebration of quirks wrapped in catchy melodies and clever wordplay with its infectious beat and humorous lyrics, it embraces eccentricities while enjoying life’s simple pleasures and I'm all for that. Excellent Scott.

BTW happy peanut butter day 24/1/25
Izzy, thank you for your pun-derful response. I appreciate your extended analysis which I enjoyed reading/
