    Lyrics:
    I pictured a rainbow
    You held it in your hands
    I had flashes
    But you saw the plan
    I wandered out in the world for years
    While you just stayed in your room
    I saw the crescent
    You saw the whole of the moon
    The whole of the moon
    Hmm, you were there in the turnstiles, with the wind at your heels
    You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels to reach too high
    Too far
    Too soon
    You saw the whole of the moon
    I was grounded
    While you filled the skies
    I was dumbfounded by truth
    You cut through lies
    I saw the rain dirty valley
    You saw Brigadoon
    I saw the crescent
    You saw the whole of the moon
    The whole of the moon
    Hey, yeah!
    I spoke about wings
    You just flew
    I wondered, I guessed and I tried
    You just knew
    I sighed
    And you swooned
    I saw the crescent
    You saw the whole of the moon
    The whole of the moon
    Hey, yeah!
    With a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels
    You climbed on the ladder and you know how it feels to get too high
    Too far
    Too soon
    You saw the whole of the moon
    The whole of the moon
    Hey, yeah!
    Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers
    Trumpets, towers, tenements
    Wide oceans full of tears
    Flags, rags, ferryboats
    Scimitars and scarves
    Every precious dream and vision
    Underneath the stars, yes, you climbed on the ladder
    With the wind in your sails
    You came like a comet
    Blazing your trail too high
    Too far
    Too soon
    You saw the whole of the moon
    The whole of the moon
    Hey, yeah!

      hijacking this comment to point out that, while I absolutely LOVE this rendition, this song is actually a cover. It was written by Mike Scott, the front man of Scottish band The Waterboys. Blew me away that Babish said it's his pick for the song played at his funeral because it's the first time I've ever heard someone else talk about it. Seriously one of my favorite songs of all time, but Kirin did not write it.

    My guts hurt from laughing. It‘s a special kind of laughter that comes from the pure joy of witnessing something so utterly perfect and iconic that the only reaction is to laugh from awe. And then something else iconic and perfect happens, and you laugh some more at the brilliance. And it just keeps going and going for seven minutes. The laughter and the awe. Kirin is my favourite. Please make more tshirts.

    My deepest gratitude goes to Thurston Waffles, the cat.
    Felt down, so I watched a cat video. Then, watched a cat meme with a screaming cowboy. I just had to watch the original AAAAAAA song, and oof did I cringe. I loved it ironically, not realizing it was satire. I just *had* to look up the singers - what the hell was their deal? How the hell did they get their hands on Jimmy Barnes? Sexual favors and extortion???
    Next thing I know I’m watching Kirin, Jimmy Barnes, Alex Cameron, Momus, Waterboys, Sex Pistols....
