Love this ! John Barleycorn is about making booze... "John" is one of the ingredients, not a person but a personification eh
Commie Francis (host)
2:52:40 PM
ooh i love a good recipe song
Brian D
2:54:23 PM
The 'grown a long beard' part is when the barley grows the outer hull or something? Then the men w the scythes cut "him" down! Time to make the booze
Brian D
2:56:31 PM
And the rebirth could be the final product... mmm . "Ground between 2 stones" is obvious eh.. the miller does their job
Brian D
2:57:02 PM
Hey they call it 'spirits"....

HELLO good people!
Commie Francis (host)
3:50:26 PM
it is a goal of mine to write a song so epic that you HAVE to say the name of it at the end, TWICE
Commie Francis (host)
3:52:06 PM
also something that is as cheerfully blasphemous as that
Ossy
3:52:35 PM
Sounds like Stevie Wonder!
