YAY! Thanks for telling us (me...I love hearing Yays wrt Happy)
and to answer your question, yes, she does all the vocals. She's
used backup singers on 2 songs, but neither are on RhodeSongs.

I'm not the one to ask, because I absolutely adore them all. "Ecto"
is my favorite, but that's because it's the first one I got. "...a
million more times..."? :-) I can tell you, from my own personal
experience, that the songs only get better with each listen. I've
been a fan since 1988, and I've never gotten tired of anything 
Happy's done.

It's ok, it's a common reaction. Happy gives monsters a good name :-)
and proves that you can't judge a book by the cover. Why monsters? It's
complex, and is better talked about in Ecto, not gaffa. The simple
explanation is that Happy really likes monsters! (not demons, btw)

Yup! Want a FAQ?
