Hanson Month 2019 Day 24

Song: Signs Of Life
Artist: Hanson, Super Digital Pants (2015)

So, Zac Hanson is hilarious if you didn't know. And he is a genius at coming up with super random, super silly songs and has compiled them into two albums known as Digital Pants and Super Digital Pants. I don't own either of them, but I have enjoyed watching the videos and listening to the songs that he shares via the Hanson.net blog. For example, his Turning 21 video changed my life! Haha!! I turned 21 the year I found it. It was fate. Jet Lag is one of the funniest videos I have ever seen! And his More To Love song/video ..... I just watched it again a few days ago and I was DYING! It is hysterical and made me laugh and smile and just made me so happy! It's great! And so fitting for me! I hope my future husband feels/thinks the same way Zac does when it comes to food and my love of eating it, lol! (*FYI: You have to be a Hanson.net member to view the videos I mentioned above.....I highly recommend you do so.....if only to see More To Love ..... and Jet Lag ..... and heck, Turning 21 too!*).

Anyway, I actually just listened to this song (Signs of Life) for really the first time a few days ago. I was a fan/member back when he released it but I never really gave it much thought. I may have previewed it but then forgot about it. This time around, I actually found the melody to be extremely catchy and when I read what the inspiration behind the song was (in Zac's own words: "The song is about a moment all nerds know, when you are playing an online video game and your friend is AFK... oh the pain." TBH: I don't play video games and I had no idea what AFK meant so I googled it. For all us non-video gamers it is apparently an acronym for "Away From Keyboard." So there you go) I immediately thought of my brother, haha! Zac's personality has always reminded me of my brother (super funny, loves video games and "nerdy" movies such as Star Wars & Lord of the Rings, they're both really good at art, loves comics, the list goes on). I am planning on sending this song to him to see what he thinks, lol. I hope he likes it!

So basically, this is just a really funny song that made me smile and think of my brother :) Thanks Zac!


Searching for signs of life.
Logged into this fantasy.
Who knew I’d be playing Sherlock answering another mystery?
I can almost see your face.
Screaming through the bits and bites.
On another polyester vista dreaming of the motes of light.

Searching for signs of life. 
Watching day turn to night. 
Idling time, lagging online

Searching for signs of life.
Dancing with an NPC.
I’m in a party with a stranger heading for calamity.
I can almost see you now. Surfing in a web of streams.
Loading up an endless bar. Trying to multiply by three.

Searching for signs of life. 
Watching day turn to night. 
Idling time, searching for signs of life

Can you hear me calling through the TV screen.
Are you out there watching just watching me waiting.
Maybe you've been hurt, or underneath some spell.
Blink once if you’re with me, blink twice if you need help.

Searching for signs of life.
Brain dead via LED.
Copper in a plastic cage.
Plasma as a window seat.
I can picture you right now.
Tearing at your hair in knots.
Crying in your magic pants.
Nothings gonna hit the spot.

Searching for signs of life. 
Watching day turn to night. 
Idling time, searching for signs of life


HAPPY HANSON MONTH!
