Here's a weird image for ya;

When I was a teen, my gramma got a player piano.
[the type that takes the perforated "rolls" of paper and that you have to pedal-pump with your feet]
It came complete with a large, rather eclectic mix of songs.

You haven't experienced "surrealism" until you've watched an [oblivious] 75 year old granny furiously pedaling away while "2525" is being pounded out by an ancient upright piano.

To this day, I can't hear that song without the visualizing that scene.

LOL!!! No way! I can't believe they made the rolls for that song! The image of that is awesome.

Kinda like the church piano player in the Simpsons playing Iron Buttery's "Ina Godda Da Vida" (sp).
