the laughing gnome...

Was this the original 'funny little man'?

what I'm saying is.....

Did Aphex hear David Bowie's 'the laughing gnome' and then
do his version or, did he live in Cornwall where they don't
get to hear any music?

Just wondered....

Thanks Chris! it still makes me laugh, it's a 'cheer leading
whoredog' from some silly site.....

I just heard an old song from the sixties by David Bowie
called 'the laughing gnome' it's almost definately what
inspired Richard to make that funny little man track....

great song, good early usage of those pitched up vocals, but
a bit of a stretch to say RDJ based "funny little man" on it

that's it! I'll not hear another word about it and that's
that. finished.

off topic a bit...

i had this happy hardcore version of "the mighty quinn" by
god knows who its by going around in my head, i was
wondering whether to carry it out or not...

probably take 1/2 an hour. it would make my friends laugh
for 5 minutes anyway... :)
