Is this the first time we've had a scrollbuttons song with instrumental accompaniment? I like the song, but it was kind of...loud.

The song was fine, but I didn't like the instrumental accompanyment. It made it sound really weird.

I think the guitar is making that song sound 80's-esque.

I'm surprised at the rather luke warm response so far, I thought it was awesome. lol, the instruments gave it that extra oompf that I haven't gotten since: "Scroll buttons, never looked so good!"

I hope this one stays a while, and hope that all future scroll button songs have scroll button back up music.

Same. I loved this, and refreshed the page about 10 times to hear it more =P

I liked this one. I thought it was cool.

I liked it. The guitars went great with it.

I like the musical accompaniment too. I think it worked well as kind of a one-off thing, mostly because it's a humorous contrast with Strong Bad's usual sit-down-at-the-computer-and-come-up-with-a-scrollbuttons-song-off-the-top-of-his-head. Leastways I hope he doesn't spend too long coming up with these gems of wonder.

It kind of sounds weird to me. But I don't care, because homestarrunner.com is weird.

Agree'd.

Sounded like he was making it up as the instruments went along, though.

That's actually why I like it. Eighties music is actually pretty cool.

Love it. I thought it was fun and rocking.

It's pretty good. I would say it sounds more like indie rock than eighties music, though. Perhaps Strong Bad recorded it during his brief Sloshy phase.

It wasn't so much the actual sound I paid attention to.
I was rolling around in my seat when I first heard it, since I'm used to SB just singing his own scroll buttons song- and then all of a sudden there's music accompanying it. Caught me off guard.

Ugh. Worst scroll buttons song yet. I was sick of this one about ten seconds after it came out, and it's only getting worse. For one, it's freakin' LOUD. I'm getting tired of repeatedly changing the volume on my speakers every time I flip through the menu. For another, that little riff gets really old when I'm trying to watch multiple e-mails. This scroll buttons song has quadrupled my use of the "rando" function.
