OK, not retro in the music, but the work of Lovecraft and his Cthulhu mythos are retro, right? OK, it is a stretch, but I am a big Lovecraft geek and while might not like the song it is based on (The Plain White Tees’ “Hey There Delilah”), the parody lyrics make it much improved. Enjoy!

Same here..was not sure what to make of it when I first hit it, but by the 30 second mark I was ready to go see Eben Brooks in concert.

Eben Brooks is awesome! He is a great guy and I just love his music!!!
Wow, thanks for posting this! :D And thanks to all the commentors, too!
