SCIENCE!

"She Blinded Me With Science"Thomas Dolby, 1982

It's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to meAs deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
"She blinded me with science!"And failed me in biology
When I'm dancing close to her
"Blinding me with science - science!"I can smell the chemicals
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"
"Science!"
Mmm - but it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
And failed me in geometry
When she's dancing next to me
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"
I can hear machinery
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"
It's poetry in motion
And now she's making love to me
The spheres're in commotion
The elements in harmony
She blinded me with science
"She blinded me with science!"
And hit me with technology
"Good heavens Miss Sakamoto - you're beautiful!"
I -
I don't believe it!
There she goes again!
She's tidied up, and I can't find anything!
All my tubes and wires
And careful notes
And antiquated notions
But! - it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
"She blinded me with - with science!"
She blinded me with ....

I think that, if Doug ever visits that particular world, thereafter this song will produce a simulacrum of ... Agatha Heterodyne.  (C'm'on, a song in which a guy keeps shouting, "Science!" is tailor-made for calling up Madgirls Sparks.)  Note, though, that back in '02, our host predicted that this little ditty should go under permanent "Do Not Play" lock.
Normal length is 3 minutes 42; extended version plays for 5 minutes 09.  For Agatha, that's plenty of time....

Yeah... that's an Agatha song, isn't it?

Doug probably won't go there, except in a nanoStep, but maybe the Girls... can you just imagine Skuld, Rinrin, Kaolla Su and Agatha Heterodyne collaborating?

I posted, back in June '07 (Crossovers that Shouldn't Be):

I'm a devout follower of Girl Genius. And ever since, not quite a month ago, we saw Agatha Heterodyne's reaction to trying coffee for the first time ("hyper" would be far too mild a description), one thought has been percolating through my brain:
Somehow -- somehow -- Agatha and Skuld have got to meet. Not to mention Agatha and Kohran, Agatha and ... well, I'm sure you get the idea.
Yes, I used the word "percolating" with malice aforethought. Live with it.

You told me to petition Rob Kelk to send the Girls that direction....

Whaaaaaaa...
Little Jamie wants big Booms !!!

 I figured he'd read that exchange back then and take the request as implicit.  Besides, I believe at that time I was already pestering him about "Blue Skies, Blue Water."  (One of these days, he'll open a thread and Kasuga "Osaka" Ayumu, whom I hired to nag him on my behalf, will be standing in the doorway with that big knife in her hand....)
