It’s the sweetest song I’ve ever heard. I’ll be her filthy gibbering lunatic, always.
“Always” may not last for long, though, once she hears a song that compares one’s beloved to a “quasi-ichthyan angel”. It’s the sentiment that counts, not the literal interpretation, OK?

Finally. A love song that doesn’t make my flesh crawl.
The Science Pundit says
That was beautiful! :*-)
That was so much better than Fishmen. It’s so original.
C. S. King says
Wow, and I just read the H.P. Lovecraft story on which this song is based just a few days ago.
Talk about eerie.

I always suspected PZ and his family were fishmen.
Phro says
Does anyone else think this song would have been even more awesome if it had Glen Benton on back up vocals?
Shatterface says
Man, that’s sweet!

Ah, sweet sea creature love.
But Ol’ Greg has a mangina…

I haven’t got a clue what THIS song is about but the video is squiddy:
GMoney says
Norm Sherman’s songs ROCK! May I recommend also Radioactive Runaways (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xgkBRAmNPw)? You can’t go wrong with a song about a giant radioactive turtle.

Don’t forget to prepare the children for Dagon and Cthulhu from a very young age! This will help a lot:

I’ll have to ask Janine if there are other songs with this lyric phrase, “your bulging, watery eyes” — that’s sweet.
ChrisH says
That song is truly awesome.
Sili says
But where are the immolated goats?
I can’t blame the TW™ for being angry if you call her quasi-ichthyan.
JayK says
I hear she wore the most wonderful jewelry.
But like a commenter above, I just finished reading this short story about 3 days ago. The elder gods must be trying to tell me something.
Gregory Greenwood says
This is the kind of song i would use to serenade a woman.
Maybe that is why I am still single . . .

Yes, Norm Sherman’s music is hilarious. My favorite so far is “Pimp My Satellite,” a hardcore gangsta rap EastCoast/WestCoast style about Russia’s deteriorated space program (as if we were still in the space race and America is completely oblivious to the fact.)
“Step up your product,
you gotta get on it
cuz we be ballin’
With a telescope that rules
even harder than Lenin or Stalin”
