I’ve been going through the JoCo catalog and found this song. Even though I had to look up what a MacLaren was versus what I was thinking (McLaren), I love the clever word play. Any song that makes me look forward to having kids has strange powers. Awesome song!

I should have sent this ages ago.

Drag racing babies… gotta love it. Stroller Town became the Mommy & Daddy soundtrack for doing laps around the hospital unit after our 5 month old son had surgery. (substituting the hospital’s “cheap-o Graco” for Bugaboo doesn’t work, but we could pretend we were pushin’ an ultra-cool Bugaboo).

Love it!

Cool! Commentary on a modern society is what we need much more of :=)

I think you should have added something about fashion strollers though. You know like that weird looking Xplory stroller from Stokke. Some people might wanna throw stones around just to take it out. Or maybe they’re scared if they threw a stone at it that it might fall over?

But I gotta say guess whta happened last Sunday? Yepp! I was out walking and bang almost walked right into one. Damn, that thing is a sexy looking stroller!

This is an awesome song! Before I came to like JoCo I was a beach boys song and this one is so much like shut down (like JoCo said) it is awesome! The first time I heard this song I had to look up the strollers on Google Images.

I like the descripion of swivel suspention and 5 point harness. This is an awesome song. Way to go!

I’ve been pushing around that Mcleren Techno XT for the last 3 years… best damn stroller out there. The cloth is a bit frayed from all the use, but the frame is still as good as new.

Great song!

I haven’t been here in a couple (well, three) weeks but I’m astounded by this one! I only wish my 1 year old were able to understand the lyrics but I appreciate them.

You need to get a job as staff songwriter at a show like “Jack’s Big Music Show” on Noggin.

Either that or someone needs to hire you to write a modern version of Schoolhouse Rock. You could be the Bob Dorough of your generation.

But yeah, Jack’s. Send in your resume. If you get the gig, I get 10% for coming up with the idea.

Greg at Daddytypes loves your stuff. I hope the link scores you a few dimes! Then you can afford the supplies to make a sign that says “I ASSURE YOU THIS BUGABOO WAS A GIFT.”

Awesome song, JC.

Check it out, you’re posted on daddytypes.com, which is where I found the Park Slope/Bugaboo tshirt link that I sent you. It’s a small world ahhhh-fter all.

I can just see the muppets doing this song!

I just think there is nothing original left for JC to do, and then he does it again!

That was Amazing! I was tearing up laughing. I wish I could come see you perform live at Mo Pitkins tommorow, but I must go back to college.

Brilliant! You’re back on track with Thing a Week — I was worried for a couple of weeks there.

I’m afraid that the Austin Lounge Lizards beat you to the punch in 1998 with “Hey, Little Minivan”.

YOU ARE MY HERO!!!

I first heard your song ‘Ikea’ and thought, “Here’s a guy who SINGS what I think”…then I hear ‘Shop Vac’ and I think “Here’s a guy who SINGS what I feel”, then I hear “Stroller Town” and I think, “HOLY CRAP here’s a guy who SINGS what I LIVE!!!”

GET OUT OF MY HEAD AND PLEASE BE ON MY PODCAST!

I’d like to play ‘Stroller Town’ on my next episode of “101 Uses For Baby Wipes”…man where’d he put that tip jar!
