Bryan Bedell's Layer 7 Commentary

The Final Frontier?

Look at Yuki there, tripping the light fantastic.

Backstage, Jim's trying to tie this one into the space baby from 2001, but I don't see it. Yuki's cute, but not so innocent. She's just roaming the galaxy, looking for trouble to prevent, when she stumbled upon some sort of stellar formation that just happens to look like that Blue Monday 12", no, not that one, the 1988 remix. She's just dancing around, listening to her secret mod-earring headphones, pretending she's in Ibiza.

Why are these comments so short? How do 'Krans and Baldwin and Guilfoile and Greenman, OMG Greenman, how do they generate so many words, and actually make them funny and relevant? I feel like "Silver" on Doolittle, the one bad song to remind you how good the other ones all are. But I plod on, without even vainly checking Twitter between volleys to see how much you're beating up on me. Tom and Kevin can thank me later for taking the pressure off them.

SOUNDTRACK: You thought it was going to be New Order's Blue Monday 1988, featuring (kern)doggs? But it's not, it's Liz Phair, before she went off the rails.
