OneMillionGiraffes.com - Jørgen was wrong!

Written on the 14th of August 2010

Remember the One Million Giraffes song by Drunken Butterfly? Well, back in June I got an email that made me very, very happy. It was from Dillon Groeneman who plays in a band called Galaxies and he had this to say:

"I love your project. Me and a friend made a kinda cover version of the Drunken Butterfly song. I hope you like it."

Well, I really, really like it! It's a perfect summer song. And Drunken Butterfly have heard it as well and they got tears in their eyes! This is so awesome!!

You can hear both songs in the orange box on top of the right column. I really love this! Two bands have written songs about the project! One from Denmark/UK and one from Colorado, USA! This is awesome!

Jayelle: Wow! Different - but really good. (Btw... I tried playing them both at the same time... Starts out good, but doesn't work together well after a while) (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Ragnar: Notice the line about drawing giraffes with dots. Actually I wasn't thinking of that when I did this. (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Sally: Hey, this is great! Maybe the next project can be one million songs about one million giraffes? (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Ragnar: Or we could do something like this? (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Sue: Love the galaxies version! Have been singing it in my head all day. Ukuleles rule! (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Elly Sue: I adore it! It's definitive going to be my new ringtone! (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Sunny: Omg! I love the giraffe-beatles! <3 (written on the 1st of January 2010)

Giraffe joke

Why do giraffes have long necks? Because their feet smell!
