Hidden Symmetry Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Cool tune, sounded good in my cans. Totally unexpected & opposite vibe of the episode, one of my TZ favs. (I used to enjoy leaving the tv on all during the entire 4th of July or New Year marathons until they started chopping off more & more key parts for commercials.) -really enjoyed the track!

jwnicholson78 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I enjoyed that. I never saw this particular episode, but looked it up and found that Rod Serling considered this his favorite episode from the first season. I'll have to check it out. jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User 905133 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 So, I got sick of all the disgusting and violent election ads on TV here and decided for BF to get Paramount+ Premium [Mostly No Commercials] for less than $1.00 / week for a year--and last week I found they have Twilight Zone! With no commercials!!!!!!!!! ? Its now on my list to watch over the remaining 48 weeks of the deal. Thanks for reminding me about the series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhonoBrainer Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Loved it. Haven't seen the episode, but your video sets with the song and sets up the inevitable twilight zone twist! I 100% got zero Steely Dan out of this, but how about They Might Be Giants? Your vocal is super clean and clear in the mix, and the bgv's are such great adds in great spots. Kudos for the non-cliche chord changes. Well done! See you in Willoughby. They do have a band . . . cheers, -Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
