History

Word Disassociation has been one of the most loved songs among the Illemonati since the release of Damn Skippy. However, thanks to Neil’s music video, Lemon Demon newbies are getting interested in it. The lyrics were used as titles for members of the Lemon Demon forum, according to number of posts. (Once the poster passed antidisestablishmentarianism, the titles switched to crayon colour names from Ode to Crayola.) Neil states in the commentary track that this was probably one of the only songs he made that you can dance to.
