Song: Tiptoe Thru' The Tulips With Me
Artist: Tiny Tim
Album: God Bless Tiny Tim (1968)
Also try: Danielson Famile haha, maybe outsider music
Commentary: I have had Songs in the Key of Z (a collection of outsider music for YEARS and somehow I have still neglected to appreciate Tiny Tim. Hot DANG. I would tiptoe thru the tulips with Tiny Tim anyday!!!! Those tongue clicks? He would make a great kids' musician.
EDIT: I liked Tiny Tim for like 3 days before I googled him and heard more about his reactionary fundamentalist beliefs.
