Video / Listen to This: "Family Garden" - Billy Kelly

I've heard a few jokey/meta titles for Billy Kelly's followup to Thank You For Joining The Happy Club. (Not on the list: People Really Really Really Like Milk.) But I hadn't yet heard actual new songs, until Jeff from Out With The Kids posted some live video from a Halloween show from Kelly in Philadelphia. They're rough (and solo), but they seemed pretty fully developed to me. So enjoy, folks, "Family Garden," which seems as almost as straightforward a song as Kelly's yet written.

Video: "People Really Like Milk" - Billy Kelly

Remember how much I liked "People Really Like Milk," the song? Well, Billy Kelly has finally finished animating that video he had about 16 seconds of, and it's, well, to tell you any more would spoil the surprises of the best simple animation since Harold and the Purple Crayon. Watch. Now. (Please.) Billy Kelly - "People Really Like Milk" [YouTube]

The Billy Kelly Show Is Here! The Billy Kelly Show Is Here!

I know, most people would say that reviewing his snappy song "People Really Like Milk" on NPR would be enough Zooglobble coverage for the week, but I love The Billy Kelly Show. Episode 1 is now online and I am adamant that you acquiesce to my request to watch the show. The poem is particularly brilliant. And here's part 2...

NPR Really Likes "People Really Like Milk"

I've got another kids music review on today's NPR's All Things Considered. This time, it's not a whole album, it's just a song, specifically Billy Kelly's "People Really Like Milk." (Next time, I'll be reviewing a particularly crunchy Scribblemonster guitar riff.) The review will air at 4:45 PM / 6:45 PM / 8:45 PM (Eastern time). If you like the song, I think you'll like the album, too. And I think we can all agree that people should buy the song or album so Kelly can finish this video:

Video: "Springtime: It's My Favorite" - Billy Kelly and the Blah Blah Blahs

Will this brand new video from Billy Kelly and his Thank You For Joining The Happy Club disk be your favorite? Maybe, maybe not -- all I know is that I did enjoy the ever-increasingly jolly "SPRINGTIME" and the subtle milk reference at the end of the video. (Oh, and with the white shirts and ties, is the band merely the older brothers of the Jimmies?) Billy Kelly and the Blah Blah Blahs - "Springtime: It's My Favorite"
