I was pleasantly surprised to hear Monica Casey's song, "The Singin' Gator," on KDHX's "Backroads" this morning. I remember hearing Casey sing it live on a "Backroads" predecessor show, "Blue Highways," in the early '00s and thinking, "The song is somewhat discomforting, but it's well-structured, has a great refrain, and Casey's vocals make you want to hear how the story pans out."
If you've ever wanted to hear a tale in which an animal has the last laugh on a human, this is your song.
