Wait...episode 29? Maybe we should go back to original numbering and we'd be over 50. Anyways, welcome to yet another edition of the Why I Love Comics podcast. As you'll hear me in the episode, my partners in crime were elsewhere this week and I have gained some newer music recently, so I decided to do another nerdy music episode! Prepare yourselves, listeners, as we jump across the musical multiverse from Electronic (Allcaps) to Rap (Childish Gambino) to acoustic (Amanda Palmer)! It's all here in this very special episode of the Why I Love Comics podcast!

Also, a warning to our more sensitive listeners, there is adult language in this episode.

Song #1 - The Kirby Krackle "Another New Crisis"

2:47 - Intro into the show by me

Song #2 - Childish Gambino "Be Alone"

Song #5 - Neil Patrick Harris and Felicia Day "My Eyes" from Dr. Horrible's sing along blog

19:06 - Intermission #1

Song #6 - MC Chris "QT"

http://www.mcchris.com/

Song #7 - Childish Gambino "Lights Turn On"

Also found on the EP with Be alone. Last minute of the song is incredibly epic, feels like a Rocky montage.

Song #8 - Beefy "I'm Not Superman"

Song #9 - All Caps "World of Warcraft Ruined My Life"

Another song from the same album. Easy to love it if you've ever played a video game.

36:17 - Intermission #2

Song #10 - Team Unicorn "G33K & G4M3R G1RL$"

http://www.facebook.com/TeamUnicornFTW

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eJmYKN_1QE - There's a directors cut out there somewhere. I just have no idea where.

Song #11 - Amanda F'ing Palmer "In My Mind"

http://www.amandapalmer.net/

Song #12 - YT Cracker "Surgerunner"

http://www.ytcracker.com/v2011/

Those who don't remember Surge will not understand the awesomeness of this song.

Song #13 - All Caps "Saved"

53:40 - Last intermission

Song #14 - Patrick Stump "Spotlight (New Regrets)"

Sadly this one isn't on the EP but you can find it on his youtube page.

Finally, as I mention on the show and will be mentioning all month, I will be at Boston Comic Con April 30th and May 1st at the Hynes Convention center in Boston.

See you next Sunday when we might have a guest. If not, we are talking comedy in comics!
