Reminds me of that OLD Amos’n’Andy Radio show from the 30’s, 40’s and the 50’s!!!<br />I don’t know if you used that for inspiration, but it’s perfect.</p>
<p>Loved it!</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=738042008-06-25T15:15:37ZALRO613 ♪ LoA ♫http://ficlets.com/authors/alro613Comment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p>Ahh yes this song resurrects fond memories from childhood.. mostly about Halloween.. Love the dialog.. And the use of colloquial.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=733402008-06-23T18:31:31ZApostrophe http://ficlets.com/authors/murphyrose27Comment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p>Well my curiosity got the better of me and I looked it up, for anyone that cares the song was used as a basis for a movie of the same name in 1988. Check it out… http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095930/</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=710162008-06-15T21:22:01ZJMSquirehttp://ficlets.com/authors/jmsquireComment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p>My parents were that warped, too, but for some reason I didn’t recognize it when I read this. I loved the “down-home” diction of your characters (i.e., <em>wangs</em> and <em>unee-corn</em> were just two of my favorites). Great job.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=709642008-06-15T17:32:34ZAna Cristinahttp://ficlets.com/authors/asimon78Comment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p> OMG , just read the tags and realized I’m a moron. My parents were that warped! I have fond (trully strange) memories of my dad singing to me about that purple people eater.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=709172008-06-15T03:13:34Zthebetweenspacehttp://ficlets.com/authors/thebetweenspaceComment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p>Purple People Eater! OMG I had this on a 45 when I was little and I LOVED it. You so totally rocked this challenge THX ! I laughed, I loved the Dr. Demento ref (he needs his own XM channel), best ending ever and a brilliant interpretation of the cool challenge. Really, really loved this. I’d give this ten stars if I could.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/34360?basename=708882008-06-15T01:52:29ZMeliahttp://ficlets.com/authors/meliaComment on Exotic Creature Inspiration [Sing-Song Challenge]<p>Sigh, here’s the song.
