[edit] Easter egg song

This song sounds familiar:

Have you seen the ghost of John?

All white bones with the skin all go-o-o-one!

Whoo! whoooo! whooo!

Wouldn't it be chilly with no skin onnnn.

Any ideas where it's from? --oddtodd 21:15, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

I've seen this song in a book of scary stories before. Clever Ben

• It is featured in one of the books in Alvin Schwartz's Scary Stories series, among other books. --TaranchulaVamp15

• • I know I had to sing it for a halloween show when I was in 4th grade chorus. Sppoky, because it was the time this email was released. Hmmmmm...Ookelaylay 22:20, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

OMG we sang that song too! Creepy...I think we sang it in music class, I believe it was either 3rd or 4th grade...we must be haunted by the ghost of John! And the Tandy's ghost! --Pretztailfan95 21:32, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Already mentioned. --DorianGray 20:32, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

where? in remarks it says it's hard to do, but still possible. Homsarstrongbad150 20:35, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Exactly. That's where it is mentioned. Homestar-Winner (talk) 20:40, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

It also says it right in the Easter eggs section. --DorianGray 20:42, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Strong Sad's singing

Hasn't Strong Sad been heard singing before? His singing makes the easter egg song really creepy. How does he make it sound so creepy? I mean really, it gives me the jibblies! --Pretztailfan95 21:34, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

This sort of idle chit-chat would be more suited to the forum, but I'll try to answer your question with an answer relevant to the Wiki. Most notably, Strong Sad sings "Bigmouth Strikes Again" by The Smiths in the Somber Vacation Easter Egg, again with creepy effect. He also sings briefly at the beginning of all Deletehead meetings, and in strong badathlon, Cool Things and Homestar Presents: Presents. But you may be right; this may the first appearance of Strong Sad singing. Whether this should be mentioned in the article itself is different matter. – The Chort 21:44, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I fixed it so that it would be more wiki-suited. Anyways, it could be put down as a fun fact or something... --Pretztailfan95 21:47, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Is it really Outer Space?

In the Easter egg section, it states that he appears in outer space. But I can't verify that it's outer space. It looks like outer space, of course with all the stars and such. But, I don't think it is. In outer space, you would be like, tumbling around due to the lack of gravity. But this is the Homestar Runner universe, so it's nothing like outer space.

[edit] Putting on some costumes

I might be missing something here, but why is Strong Bad wearing fake ears and The Cheat wearing an afro as part of their costumes? I understand the Ghostbusters 2 shirts. Are they trying to resemble any ghost hunters in particular? (I don't recall any Ghostbusters wearing an afro, Real, Extreme or otherwise). 99.48.86.26 02:39, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
