Excerpted from the April/May issue of Bust magazine, in the article "PAGING DR. CONCHORD: New Zealand's Most Crushworthy Exports, Flight of the Conchords, Answer Our Readers' Burning Questions About Love, Romance, and Wooing a Kiwi" (pp. 55-56) - they printed my letter!! OMG, Jemaine read my letter in his own voice; I am faint, I am faint.

This is in regard to my 2008 song "Be In a Country Band With Me" which is featured in various forms all over the internet (like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZFHhP4Qz-M ).

OK: here's my historic long distance print relationship with FOTC, courtesy of awesome Bust magazine:

Jemaine [reading letter out loud]: "Dear Conchords, Please help. I love a dude in addition to you guys. My love is tragically unrequited. I would like to use the power of music to charm him. What stuff should I include in the song in order to make the dude fall in love with me? I already made a song that compliments him on his Willie Nelson impression, and that didn't work. Thank you. Honey."

Well, I'm surprised that didn't work, Honey.

Bret: Try it again; try it in a different chord.

J: I would find somebody else who does a good Willie Nelson impression, and try the song on him.

B: Or go to a Willie Nelson impersonator's gig. See if there are any guys you like there.
