♫ Well the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until
The End ♫

Inu Yasha: ‘Right, all you peasants, into the fire with the lot of you. Form one line, please, one orderly line, we need to immolate everyone, but we can’t do it all at once. Not without your co-operation.’

This – THIS – is what happens when you get your glockenspiel and xylophone identification mixed up.

“Okay, so imagine that your house is on fire and you can only grab one item as you rush out the door. What would it be?”
“Wait. Do you mean besides the xylophone?”

Pat Sharp and Neil Morrissey form a Mumford and Sons tribute band. Audience reception is unfavourable.

Imagine that at some point, a young awkward girl who plays the xylophone saw this cover and gasped.

“Hmm . . . hmm hmmm . . . just practicing my xylophone while the rest of the village attends a witch burning . . . hmm hmmm hmm . . .”
Monty Python should’ve covered this.

@AnnaT: how do you know she is a witch?
July 11th, 2016 at 2:35 pm
“My Fanny’s Demon” is more like it, as the witch clearly has a (fire) bug up her arse.
July 11th, 2016 at 2:37 pm
@B.Chiclitz: this being a British-run site, that’s not where the bug would be.

We didn’t start the fire
It’s been always burnin’
Since Myfanwy’s Demon
We didn’t start the fire
No we still don”t feel it
We just glockenspiel it

Exorcism by fire and xylophone! That’s a thought!

You get a car! And you get a car!

It’s Myfanwy and I’ll fry if I want to

@Tat Wood—I’ve always liked the xylophone part in that tune.
July 11th, 2016 at 6:30 pm
@B.Chiclitz: Dave Stewart and Barbara Gaskin mixed it fairly well down but it’s there if you listen closely.
July 11th, 2016 at 7:33 pm
@Tat Wood—I was thinking of the Lesley Gore version (1964). Mixed way up there.

This cover is giving me some bad vibes.

“Meryl! What have I told you about playing that thing in a 6/66 time signature!”

yo SALEM!!! Are you ready to ROCK?!!

@DSWBT: It’s a medieval-looking village, with a great big bonfire in the square, and the people present don’t look especially joyous. Also, check out that person with the crazy white hair who’s pointing.
Of COURSE it’s a bloody witch burning!

What happens when you play the xylophone backwards.

@AnnaT: Ah, but can you not also burn bridges?

When Myfanwy got the job as High School Public Address announcer, he was beside himself with joy:
[BONG-BING-BONG!]
“Good morning, Greendale! Today’s announcements: The Dean kindly asks all students to refrain from starting Wiccan bonfires on campus grounds, the Fire Department has filed a complaint…”

Guesses, anyone, on what the xylophone player is looking at that’s more exciting than a demon witch burning?
Or maybe he was just told, “never take your eyes off the conductor during a performance. No. Matter. What.”

Remember, you can’t spell “xylophone” without “phoney lox.”

Does the demon belong to Myfanwy the Welsh goddess or Myfanwy the pterodactyl from Torchwood? I would so like it to be the latter.
