  • This is the longest lego movie I have ever made, and I think it's my best one too. I used Todd Rundgren's song "Espresso (All Jacked Up)" And put the music video to it. It took about two weeks, longer than my White and nerdy video, for all of you who are curious about that :). I forgot to put in the credits that all the special effects were done with the program Adobe After Effects. And all the props in the video were from my mom. Enjoy, and please rate and comment!!!

    It's the usual feel good Rundgren sound combined with my usual feel good thing, espresso. (Toronto is no slouch in the indie coffee department for the geeks out there who are wondering. Pilot and Detour rocks!) I heard this for the first time a few minutes ago. Wow! My WP coffee page is smiling. Thanks uploader. And yes, I'm impressed. Thanks Todd.

    Dude. Excellent. Love your mad skills, and love the Todd. Just saw him the other night, grew up with his music, and this made us all young again. Keep up the good work. Imaginative, slick, and well blended with lyrics and melody. Nice.

    This song is "Espresso" not Parallel Lines. Espresso is on the album "The Individualist" which was released in 1995 when Todd was using the name
    TR-i . It was the first "enhanced" cd that had all kinds of cool stufff when you
    put it in your computer including a doom style video game. Parellel lines plays
    during the credits and is on 1989's Nearly Human, the hardest of all Todd records to find... thanks to Warner Bros.

I almost peed my pants when I saw the reference to Kasim's "unfortunate show business moment", as someone put it. (for those who want to see the live incident check out "couldn't I just tell you" live). You must be a true Todd fan. (Who else would even know this song?) Thanks and keep up the good work. Not sure how you have time but you keep us entertained and amazed.
