Happy PiDay, everyone!

We just got word that Gordon Webster released today a new version the song "I Like Pie" appropriately enough, on PiDay. Adding to the nerdiness, this version is exactly 3 minutes, 14 seconds long. 

In light of the recent discussions around Steven Mitchell's now infamous version of that song, Gordon notes that "this track is dedicated to the women of the lindy hop scene, and especially to survivors of sexual assault." And half of the proceeds will go toward supporting survivors of sexual assault. 

Gordon also sneaks in some subtle adjustments to the lyrics to make them a bit more respectful toward the subject: 

I like pie, I like cake
I like anything you bake
I like your crackers too, crumbled up in a stew,
When I see your jelly roll,
I just need my self control
Cause of all these things I like you best of all.

When I see your gender role, it just moves my heart and soul.
But of all these things, I like you best of all.

When I see your jelly roll, I’m gonna use my self control,
Cause of all these things, I like you best of all. (more than your pie.)

Of course, you can always just play the Four Clefs version, if you did the original better.
