Dear Readers,
As regular readers may be aware This Journal and its Editor have something of a penchant for the Victorian, Neo-Victorian and Steampunk. Since my favourite Neo-Victorian journals (What ho Proles! and Nottlesby's Notebook) have fallen into desuetude I have occasionally sought Sanctuary from this decadent and corrupt Age in the World of Steampunk. Of the various Steampunk Journals, one of my favourites has been Brass Googles.
It's most recent entry has an unusual piece of Steampunk Music that I simply had to share with a less specialised Audience. What makes it unusual is that it isn't a piece of Gothic or Electronic Music (both of which I frankly loathe) - it is, what one commentator called, "pith-hop".
While warning the Sensitive of the presence of more sexual innuendo than a Carry On movie, The Boy's Own Paper would like to Present:
Elemental -- Cup of Brown Joy (a Tea Rap)

Now I'm off to brew a Pot of Tea.
Cheerio,
Mild Colonial Boy, Esq.
[P.S. 2nd of June - The lyrics for this ode to Tea can be found here]
