The Flower Kings - Humanizzimo
I mean really, that's just ridiculous. And yet, I love
it... I picture Roine standing over a stove, cooking a dinner,
then lifting the lid and shouting "HUMANIZZIMO!" and the top of his
lungs, in an odd Swedish-tinged Italian accent.

Roine looks like this guy who managed a night crew at a grocery store I worked at years ago. I laugh almost every time I see his picture.

It is by Roger Waters from Pink Floyd's Ummagumma

I've always hated the title "Karn Evil 9." It's like, "Hey, dude, Karn Evil.. you know, Karn Evil... That rocks... I like the K...." Complete and utter cheese.
Anyway, I've always been quite fond of, "Moses, I amn't" by Explosions in the Sky, I think, though I've never heard it. The word "amn't" is awesome, though.

What's so weird about it? It means "Irreversibly over". As in the
expression "It's curtains for you!" (an expression that originally was
used in theatre, where the curtain ended the show).

"Thick as a Brick" is a pretty cool song title.
