     I was really glad when [James] had that Sburb album come out, you know, he referenced [[Sburban Jungle]] on that, which was, you know, an honor of course, and hearing it [[track:exodus|performed]] by [[artist:erik-scheele|Erik Scheele]] on the piano... And I think that's my favorite piece of Homestuck music, that album, just because regardless of where the themes came from, it was just good listening. You know. Could put that on during breakfast.
