THE CONCEPT
Andrew makes songs based on your ideas.
And sometimes he just makes songs.
But anyway, suggest something?

NEW CHAPTER
It’s been a gradual transition that wasn’t always even apparent to me, but I can definitively say now that my work will be focused more on my YouTube channel than this website. (Though a redesign is on its way that will integrate the two a bit more anyway.)
Of course, all the songs here will stay up for your enjoyment – some might even be made into videos in the near future. :) I will also continue to do commissions.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement over the years. Things are getting bigger and better and I hope you’ll stay on this magic carpet ride with me forever!

very pretty. if only it was longer….
I agree, you should start to make some full length singles. Get together with some top bands from your area and put something together, start to roll in the big money
Yeah, you really need to start making full length songs…. Hey, my name is Andrew too! sweet =D
Very pretty, my mom likes it =)
Oh, and is this about a gf/wife that died? awww =’(
I denamnd a full length song of this! (I’ve already requested this!)
Great work , please keep it up!
Please make this longer.
I adore this song. Always have. I really wish you would make it longer though!
>_<
Wow…if only all guys thought like this….you get a lot of chicks don’t you? lawl
*cry*
meh!T-T thats awesome and so sad
i realy wish it was longer but its to perfect he way it is. dang it now im geting all emotional!
I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aw, come on, man. Do a full version of this song….
yeah i agree with everyone ^^^
So sad, so awesome.
(Being a jerk: Technically, a piano counts as percussion. 8D)
if only this one were free ;_;
Um… Piano is considered a Percussion instrument, isn’t it?
WE love the song.
we want the full version and the lyrics
Seriously dude make it a full lenght song. And the guy who said you should get in a band!!!! Dude you are a band on your own
A lotta bands would pay a lotta money for a “chick ballad track” like this one to pad their album. Nice work.
Aw, I liked the irreverence of the old title. “I’ve never made a song in 5/4 time that doesn’t have percussion”.
omg amazing song!!! pleeeeezzzzeeee do a longer version!!!!!!!
and Pianos are STRING, not percussion.
der. :]
Yeah, but percussion means striking, and you’re striking a string…
Why does such a good song have to cost money? Why?
Kar, is that not basically the same as plucking a string as you would on a guitar? You are disturbing the string and making it vibrate.
This song is teh awesomezore! but you need to make a longer version!
This song is so pretty… and I agree with everyone else- the song needs to be longer! I love the chords too!
Duuude. Who cares if there’s percussion in there or not..this song is great…
piano is string because it has strings! you also press heys
drums and xylaphones and triangles are hit, not pressed but striked
also this song should be extended. :(
WOW. i love this song! all the fighting about whether a piano is a string or percussion kinda ruins it. =/
oh well. i still love it. =]
Dude, that was a start worthy of a full-length performance. If you refuse to make it, I will, and I’ll send you the rights, just ’cause the world needs to hear this…
omgness.. i loved it -cries- need a full length one
I’ll follow the majority here in saying that this song is excellent and is in need of a full-length release.
Best song on the site? I reason, “yes”.
Y’know, I never clicked on the song’s old title because it sounded “silly.” Which, now that I’ve listened, is the complete opposite. Wow. This is really pretty… And sad. D’aawww.
id say you should make a full version too1
wow…i thought this would be another funny one…
what a great song
ANDREW!!! PLEASE MAKE SOME FULL LENGTH SONGS THAT ARENT JUST FOR HOLIDAYS !!
i dont have spare change for little clips of songs, i like to save it for full songs. but i promise you, i would (and im sure im not the only one) pay 2 dollars (more than .99 times 2 !) just for a full length version of this song.
its beautiful. and i love it. and i love you.
ANDREW PLEASEEEEE WE ARE ALLLLL BEGGING YOUUU !!!!!
I think I just had an epiphany.
“Some things he’s never done”–write a completely serious song on a free request?
Oh, man. It looks like everybody had that idea.
wahhz. i have no idea what this was about but it sounded tragic.
I think i might cry….=[
Oh Andrew. You are simply beautiful. I expected to hear a song about you you’ve never been sky diving with Vietnamese leprechauns or something, and as soon as you started singing… it was like my whole soul shook. I don’t know how else to say it, Beautiful. Just beautiful. x
Actually a piano (that means a piano piano, not a poser keyboard) counts as a string instrument, which i just found out are called chordophones in nonwestern areas (who isnt nonwestern). not sure what a keyboard is though(no strings!)
This is your best song!! I’m in love for it since it first appeared on your side many years ago. Please, really, record a longer version of it.
I first heard of you when the Touchtone Genius was still new, which was and still is brilliant. I downloaded a number of your songs and found many to be funny and entertaining. But this song… this song made on a silly request turned into something more, something that is lacking from pop music of the day, it is just amazing. So, I’ve decided, you only live once, I just have to go further than all the other requests here. How much to do want to make this a full song?
Yes, I’m going to repeat what everyone else that’s commented has said, you need to create a longer version of this. Also, you shouldn’t sell out to a band, be a one man show, like Nine Inch Nails(aka Trent Reznor). Honestly, I would pay my entire lifetime savings to have this made into just a two or three minute song. And, that’s about all I have to say.
It is now longer. REJOICE.
I think that the Piano is technically considered percussion..
am I going to be the asshole who calls the piano a percussion instrument? No! it’s synthy so therefore exempt. back to the drawing cave!
Referring to Danny Robinson’s comment, that’s what she said.
secondhand serenade? O_O
congrats on the video making process
Maybe I’m just late, but… Jesus, Andrew. This is fucking beautiful.
About 4 weeks ago my dad died and this song hit me like a train because i wasnt in the room when he died and i didnt get to say my goodbyes
I love how this seemed like a silly request and you turned it into one of your most loved pieces. You sly devil Andrew ;)

How far you’ve come man! Amazing :) Keep up the awesome work!
Kolbe and others: A piano works by you hitting a key and a mallet inside the piano STRIKING the key. Piano is a string instrument, but it is also unquestionably a percussion instrument. Music ed major here.
. . . You know, some people consider piano percussion.
Fuck. Issue was already addressed.
I sing this song to my turds when I flush them.
