Holy shit. #AxisOfAwesome's famous "#FourChordSong" routing was used as #evidence in the #EdSheeran #plagiarism #trial. #IVviIV #music #chordprogression

Is #TunesTuesday a thing?
One of my favourite things is comedy in music. Big fan of #WeirdAl.
A bunch of years ago I first heard Four Chords by Axis of Awesome and knew I'd found an awesome new (to me) band that fit the niche of music I love.
They have some absolute bangers like:
Some really funny observational comedy:
While l like a lot of their tunes (several are in my typical rotation), I think the absolute best was the song they performed just after the lead singer Jordan transitioned, titled The Elephant in the Room.
I encourage you to go listen to the rest of the #AxisOfAwesome catalog, they have something for everyone, including good life advice like Cut Your Pizzas into Twelve.
The band has since dissolved, which sucks because I missed my opportunity to see them live.

Is #AxisOfAwesome on mastodon anywhere yet? #FourChordSong just came back through my playlist. Still the best song ever.
