IT’S A CHOCOLATE PROPHECY

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

There was a point, about four entries back, where this blog just became meme-based. There’s now guaranteed to be at least one thing in every entry that only one other person in the world besides me will understand. Fucking memes, man.

This is gonna cross over into the CD booklet, too, which will just be weird. I actually considered having one of the centre pages of the booklet say ‘PAGE LEFT BLANK’, you know like they do in exams? What a pointless idea. I might still do it.

Anyway, since giving you the lyrics of Georgia wasn’t enough of a teaser since you’ve already heard the whole song in acoustic form, I thought I’d let you hear five seconds of the finished track. BUT: then, I went through the song and couldn’t pick a section, cos it’s all so cool that I wanna save all of it for the album release.

So this blog becomes redundant.

(I’ve now sold 125 pre-orders of the 117% bundle :D Thanks so much, guys.)

  • "I’ve now sold 125 pre-orders..."
    but i was one of the original 56.
    ...so there!

    i loved "Pokemon, What Happened to You?" the remix btw! i want that on my ipod!

    Im so saving up for the bundle :) oh alex i watched the NYC vids for the 4th time and laughed my head off.
  • CHeetah
    hey alex. i don't have a credit card and my parents won't let me use theirs, so I can't buy all of that great 117% stuff. is there any way I could still get it? I would totally send you the money for example..
  • Beth
    the blank page idea is hilarious, it's so ironic!
    are you putting the ep up on itunes as a seperate download? or are you conning us into giving you more money by only selling it as a bundle? (i don't mind really, the tee shirt is extremely cool :D <3)

    p.s. why is parrot stories called parrot stories?
  • Katherine
    Does the 117% complete bundle actually get sent out on the 1st March, or do they send it out before then so that you get it on the 1st March?
  • We'll try our best to get it to you so you have it on March 1st, but shipping times will obviously be forces outside of our control.
  • spiltmilkisverysad
    Will your album be on itunes, i didnt know if you have already said it would be on there
  • Yeah of course :D
  • Wolfiex
    your so welcome alex. your just too cool. bdw, i always totally get whatever you say in your blogs....does that mean i'm weird too? or just not quite as awesome as you? aw man, ive just confuzzled myself :S
  • No you don't! What does 'Chocolate Prophecy' mean, or 'Harry Moon', hmm? :p
  • Wolfiex
    good point....i wish i knew. oh, will you put Pokemon what happened to you? What happened to you?' on your EP as a hidden track? everyone who's heard it would love it ( and you) if you did :D
  • Yay for redundant blogs!! I feel like that's all I write! :P Maybe that's why my first attempt, so long ago, didn't take off...

    I like the idea that Mickeleh has presented here regarding your blank page. I always hated those pages in exam booklets - my little mind always felt the need to stare at it for too long asking why if it was meant to be blank, it wasn't, which effectively meant I had less time to actually complete the test! Whoops...

    Also, as my day is just ending, and yours (if you had a nice little Sunday sleep in) is just beginning, I am taking this opportunity to say Happy Valentine's Day! :)

  • Why is it, Alex, that you awaken my inner pedant?

    Very old computer manuals that were done by geeks for geeks used to include pages marked, "This page intentionally left blank." Which, logically, was a contradiction of fact. It wasn't blank at all. It had a sentence of copy on it. I always felt they should have left it completely blank and then wasted a second page to say: "see that page over there? It was intentionally left blank."

    The same would apply to your booklet. Go ahead, waste two pages.
  • I know but THAT'S WHY IT'S BRILLIANT. Like those electronic road signs that have printed the words "sign not in use".
  • Haha, please do the PAGE LEFT BLANK thing. It's the only thing that makes exams worth taking - because it's like "Hello, irony!" and such.
  • Gillian
    Every time you make a blog post, the explicit version of "I Wanna Love You" comes to mind.
  • SomeSixteenYearOld
    I really wanted your bundle pack, but since I can never order the right size t-shirt online I decided I'd spend the same amount of money only I bought 'Parrot Stories' and 'Painfully mainstream' which I received Thursday and have really enjoyed! Buuuut since I still really want that bundle pack I ordered it, regardless if the shirt is the wrong size. Thanks for the great music! :D
  • You know right at the top of DFTBA.com there's a link that says 'size chart'? That would have helped you ;)
  • AllAmericanGal
    I love Bounty chocolate bars, and baseball caps.
  • GemLovesAlexDay!
    AHHH! i could cry! i just asked my mum to order the EP bundle for me. (i cant do it myslef cos i dont have a credit card). And so i showed it to her and she said NO!! ahh i am so mad. but she ordered me Tom's 'Painfully mainstream' and 'DFTBA volume 1' so that kind of half makes up for it. but i really really want this bundle! How annoying. i guess i am just too obssessed. x
  • Aren't you paying her for it? If you're paying her for it, isn't it up to you what you do and don't order? I mean unless she's a hardcore Pokémon fan who disapproves of my witticisms, which I doubt.

    That's rubbish. Well, I appreciate that you tried :) x
  • GemLovesAlexDay!
    ahh i would pay her for it if it wasnt going to be a birthday present. aha no i dont think she is a hardcore anything. lol its just my mum! unless thats why she gets up so early to go do pokemon stuff! lol. im not even into pokemon, i just want the bundle cos its pretty awesome. i used to like pokemon about 5/6 years ago when i was about 8 and me and my sister used to fight over jiggly puff (cos it was pink). and whoah this message is becoming incresingly long now so im going to stop. :L

    Bye xx (:
  • Mishell
    hahaha, how can you be hardcore for pokemon and not like the original pokemon best? ah, the poor younger generation is missing out with all of these new pokemon now and the the original ones. And THANK YOU for saying legendary doesn't mean anything anymore. I mean my god, i remember when Ash saw a legendary pokemon in the first (or second, can't remember) episode and it was like this amazing thing. Now there are like 2 hundred and it's just ridiculous.
  • Mishell
    wait, i didn't mean 'all of these new pokemon now and the the original ones'. I meant NOT the original ones
  • Gemma
    you should totally do the blank page lol. how could any of your blogs be redundant? they intrigue me. x
  • ginaarrrrx
    There's a page in my English GCSE Anthology work which says "Page left intentionally blank" because there used to be a poem on it about knives and it made kids go psycho so they took it out... :D
  • itiselizabeth
    The Page left blank or "There are no questions on this page" pages used to irritate me in exams. But in a CD booklet would make me giggle!
  • tyler
    again, i am so excited about georgia.
    i'm probably going to go and listen to the acoustic version of awhile :P

    btw, you should totally do the page left blank. X)
