Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 17th December – Kilogram – The Doubleclicks

The Doubleclicks have their second entry of the year, with the song Kilogram from their Love Problems album.

Its a cool little ditty about the replacement of the International Prototype of the Kilogram with a mathematically formula the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.62607015×10−34 when expressed in the unit J⋅s, which is equal to kg⋅m2⋅s−1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ΔνCs .


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 16th December – Fuck You – Garfunkel & Oates

Despite the title, this is a pretty sweet love song by Garfunkel & Oates, who are Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci, both of whom you will likely have seen on a TV show or two!


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 15th December – My Hope – Molly Lewis

This is delayed due to still being ill, curses I wish it would disappear and let me get on with life!

Molly writes the most wonderful songs, and started out by covering songs by the likes of Lady Gaga and Britney Spears in her ukulele.

But she has moved on to her own original songs and this one is rather lovely and really do encourage you all to give it a listen.


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 14th December – Devil in a Black Dress – Jo Carley and the Old Dry Skulls

What do you get when you mix vaudeville cabaret, the blues and a bit of voodoo, well you get Jo Carley and the Old Dry Skulls.

I really love this song, its the type of music that I could picture myself shaking to in a dark smoky back alley club.

Its kind of syrupy and wonderful to listen to and you can so easily tap your foot to the beat!


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 13th December – Somewhere Under the Graveyard – Jamey Rottencorpse And The Rising Dead

This punk parody of Somewhere Under The Rainbow is just great, a little bit retro, a little bit comedy and all horror punk!

And sometimes horror punk is what you need isn’t it, damn I wish I had been alive for the height of proper punk, but these guys are a real idea of that that was like.


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 12th December – Leaf on the Wind – The Bedlam Bards

Its still too soon, its always going to be too soon for this!

Another Firefly inspired song, well Serenity, the movie, but this still hurts, it hurts so much!


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 11th December – The Philosophical Zombie Slayer – Rock, Paper, Cynic

When I first heard this I groaned, there are so many puns, its a great song, but you will groan!


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 10th December – Block Breaker – Meri Amber

Originally another Meri Amber song was to occupy this spot, but its not widely available, so I have brought in this excellent song from her Origin Story album.

Its a rather sad song really and is about losing interest in a relationship and allowing it to fall apart all around you.

Its a very singable tune though and really does show off the talent that Meri has in spades!


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 9th December – RPG Song – Professor Shyguy

Sometimes you need a good but of chiptune and here is an excellent song by Professor Shyguy.

I am not sure what else to say about this, buts is a fun tune very much inspired by the RPGs of the 3rd and 4th generation of consoles.

Its an excellent song and really gets your blood pumping.


Nerdy Musical Advent 2021 – 8th December – PC99/On the PC – Tom Smith

Sometimes taking an old song and rewriting it can get you something amazing, and this parody of Under the Sea from The Little Mermaid is amazing.

This song is from way way back, 1999 specifically, a time in which I was heavily involved in PC gaming, way more than I am now, heading off to LAN parties in Ipswich and London and this was a song we played quite a bit.

Its just filled with what now we would consider retro, which makes me feel far far too old now!

Also really do look into Toms music, he is one of the giants of the world of filk and has a ton of amazing songs, he is one performer I would really love to see live!
