Avengers: Earth’s Rockingest Heroes
The Human Tim is at it again, this timewith a one-man rock rendition of the Avengers movie theme. Admittedly, I didn’t pay the strictest attention to the movie’s music when I was watching it — it was hard to heard the orchestral theme when I was simultaneously crying, cheering and masturbating so loudly — but it’s a great song, and the Human Tim covers it with his traditional aplomb. He also breaks into the Avengers: EMH cartoon theme, which I must admit I have also welcomed into my heart. I don’t know if the song has actually grown on me, or if the cartoon is so good I now like it by proxy, but I’ve caught myself whistling it more than a few times. Anyways, Avengers rock — it would make me want to see the movie again today, but I’ve wanted to see the movie again pretty much every day since last Friday, so that might not be the strongest compliment.
