Gotta Catch Your Love

So it turns out that my girlfriend Hatti was texting Alex about how awesome it would be to start a pokemon rock band called Nurse Joy Division, after Alex’s failed attempt at a Chameleon Circuit spinoff playing said pokerock. This is hilarious already, but I only heard about it today from Becky:

[01/05/2010 21:59:07] Becky: You and Ed should form a Pokémon rock band call Nurse Joy Division. Please make this happen.
[01/05/2010 21:59:20] Tom Milsom: hahaha
[01/05/2010 21:59:28] Tom Milsom: but what about Charmeleon Circuit?
[01/05/2010 22:00:51] Becky: Charmeleon Circuit were one-hit wonders. Alex wrote ‘My Life Would Muk Without You’ and then the band was never heard from again. :(
[01/05/2010 22:00:59] Becky: WE NEED A PROCK REVIVAL.
[01/05/2010 22:01:56] Tom Milsom: MY LIFE WOULD MUK WITHOUT YOU
[01/05/2010 22:02:01] Tom Milsom: HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS
[01/05/2010 22:02:13] Becky: (Prock Revival. its funny coz revievs r used in pokemn ololol)
[01/05/2010 22:04:18] Becky: I don’t know how you’ve never heard MLWMWY. They dressed up as Muk and performed it on Glee.
[01/05/2010 22:04:29] Tom Milsom: wha…
[01/05/2010 22:04:58] Becky: Phone up dear Alexface and ask about the song, although be warned, it’s a bit of a sore spot for him.
[01/05/2010 22:05:10] Tom Milsom: WHAT IS THIS MADNESS
[01/05/2010 22:09:51] Tom Milsom: what is this
[01/05/2010 22:10:04] Tom Milsom: I just found myself playing an accordion trying to write a song called ‘Gotta catch all your love’
[01/05/2010 22:10:12] Tom Milsom: WHAT DO YOU DO TO ME
[01/05/2010 22:10:34] Becky: HAHAHA
[01/05/2010 22:10:36] Becky: <333
[01/05/2010 22:11:17] Becky: You have to make this song. HAVE to.

So I did. Here it is for your beautiful ears; Gotta Catch Your Love.

Gotta Catch Your Love by Tom Milsom

And if you think I’m gonna make a habit of this, you are sorely mistaken.

This is quite amazing!!!!! Especially because I suspect that the majority of attention I receive from the male population is due to my extreme interest and knowledge of pokemon. ^_^ More than a couple of guys have started talking to me after hearing me singing Alex's “Pokemon, What Happened To You?” in the hallways. Anyway, that was extremely wonderful, and I want to hear more, because I like your face Tom …and your voice/songwriting ability. Yeah, I like that too… :P <3

The band you really need to make is one called Bill Nye's Evolution. The first hit single should be called “Burgess Shale.” Get on it.

Also, just last night I was watching “Pokemon:The First Movie” and I realized how absolutely terrifying it is. No wonder I grew up paranoid and afraid of everything.

Please do a collab with Alex on this song on the 21st! (of May)

I like it. It's as if Paul Simon went 8-bit.
I'm listening to explorers 3 now.
You've made me believe again Tom.
All Hail Jesusachordal!

wait… Charmeleon Circuit?! Is there any way you can make Alex release the lyrics to 'My Life Would Muk Without You'? or even better, get him to sing it and put it for free download :)

If Tom Milsom music could get any better than this, it would be locked away in the center of the Earth.
Thank you for brightening my day. Again.

This is what I do during my computer class. I explore your website (as well as the other amazing musicians I discovered through youtube) listen to your music and read your blogs. I don't do my projects, or pay attention, or learn anything in class.

Our ears are beautiful because they have heard Tom's music. Even the ugliest ears are transformed once they have heard Tom telling them that their imperfections make them beautiful.

I just rediscovered this song on my hard drive. And holy fuck I just needed to comment on it again…
It's just so adorable. There's something so innocent in this song… like a… Togepi! Yeah, I'm not as good at Pokemon similes…
