about

A song about Tycho Brahe, noted 16th Century Danish astronomer.

We can't get the band together during Lockdown 2.0...so one man rock down demo of a brand new song.

Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) was a fervent empiricist. Using his naked eye observations of the heavens, he discovered comets and supernovas were not sub-lunar events as previously believed, but were instead occurring in the supposedly immutable celestial spheres. He also had a prosthetic golden nose and died of an exploding bladder.

lyrics

Follow the golden nose,
The heaven’s secret’s told,
The laws of light unfold,
The knowledge Tycho holds,

Oh the work of empiricists, they chart the course of planets,
Sublunar phenomenon, hell no god damn it!
The supernovae spotted, with unexpected alternation,
The Celestial Realm Unchanged, now in constant motion.

The truth it comes from way up high,
And the stats don’t lie,

Blind watchers of the sky,
We observe the weight of data that’s collated with the naked eye,
Blind watchers of the sky,
Just one more supernova and you’ll know that’ll be over, Aristotle and his method is a lie,

The subterranean laboratories, improve the tools of trade,
Observational Astronomy, all unique and all hand made,
Hell yeah to Copernicus, says Keppler’s wit,
This fella is so damn close, but I don’t think we’re there just yet,

The truth it comes from way up high,
And the stats don’t lie,

Blind watchers of the sky,
We believe it’s geocentric, we’re just waiting one more metric, it’s the,
Blind watchers of the sky,
Just, one more supernova and you’ll know that’ll be over, Aristotle and his method is a lie,

Follow the golden nose,
The heaven’s secret’s told,
The laws of light unfold,
The knowledge Tycho holds,

Blind watchers of the sky,
We observe the weight of data that’s collated with the naked eye,
Blind watchers of the sky,
We believe it’s geocentric, we’re just waiting one more metric, it’s the,
Blind watchers of the sky,
You can continue your attacks but we can see no parallax, it’s the,
Blind watchers of the sky,
Just, one more supernova and you’ll know that’ll be over, Aristotle and his method is a lie!

TODGER England, UK

Roaring into the truck stop of your earhole, Todger are 4 old friends from London knocking out hard rocking, good times with a god damn silly band name. Drawing from 70s classic and southern rock and the belief that watching live music should be truckin good fun, they blend their tight grooving rhythms and slick guitar work with tongue in cheek tall tales, innuendo and belt-it-out BVs. ... more
