50 pence posts on hacker news. Amazing. Well done my friend, if it is indeed you - that song was and is most amusing. Surely the highlight must've been yoda playing it on radio 1?
It was a big moment! A load of other crazy stuff happened around the same time - the original artists were played the track and approved it for general release, and I was getting about 100 emails a day from random listeners who had tracked me down.
The best advice I ever got was not to associate my real name with the track, so that a relatively crappy 'one hit wonder' didn't define me forever. Now it doesn't matter as much. Suffice to say, I'm firmly in favor of pseudonyms online.
