Monkey in My Chair

VIDEO PREMIERE :::

'Monkey in My Chair'

by The Library is on Fire.
Directed by Craig Snodgrass.

i wrote this song when i still lived in Virgina. in many ways, it feels like a hundred years ago. the song came out of a frustrated and drunken middle-of-the-night haze. when i woke up the next day, i found that i had written and recorded a demo of the song. when i tried to refine it, to work out the words better, to write another verse, it didn't work. the song happened when i was nearly unconscious, and it just stayed in that space. in didn't think anything of it later on, but then Steve heard it and thought Library could play it, so we did.
it's funny that this little tune hopped from the one world into the present one. anyhoo, thanks to my brother Craig Snodgrass for coming up to Brooklyn and bringing other brother Grail Ogzewalla and making a real fun video. love you guys.
