9 years ago I wrote a throwaway song called "I'm not gay" and mixed it with an animated gif of Spiderman dancing about. Just searched for it on youtube and found various people singing it so I thought I'd edit them together and then I thought I'd also sing it myself because I dunno, I can.
This isn't an attempt to make something popular by the way - I'm just procrastinating about doing some real work.

Long before I found B3ta (or indeed much else on the web) That song was sone of the first non-techy or work related things I ever received in an email. By replying to this I feel I have reached some kind of pivotal point...

She might have got it somewhere posh - or possibly from Asda.

God, I just made the dullest fucking post on b3ta ever.

I remember the internet being mostly pictures of peoples cats and online video being 10 second clips of Christina Applegate wearing a tight skirt in Married With Children that took over 1hr to download.

I remember when the internet was in black & white. ;)
I'm fairly sure this is one of the things that brought me here to b3ta, many many moons ago now.

It already has people singing I'm not gay. Or did you knock this up really quickly since seeing that? ;)
You must remember Mancentral, it was the main KLF fansite run by a guy in Manchester, hence the name. Very odd seeing it mean something totally different now.

simply looking at youtube and wondered what of my old flash stuff people had uploaded and noticed a few people singing this song.
(There's also some people singing the Beer Beer Beer one, soldiers singing She's in a Wheelchair, and some kids attempting the beepy title screen music on Diarrhoea Dan.)
Yep - do remember mancentral. Think it had a different URL tho. Google suggests something like jumper.mcc.ac.uk/~ttl/KLF - long since out of action mind you.

A friend watched a compilation of drunken people falling over to the audio of "beer beer beer". It wasn't particularly funny.

I was just about to say I've never heard of him then realised I managed to read God is Not Great without ever realising who the author was.
