yacht didn't just decide to use shrigley's lyrics.
in 2007 tomlab, a german record label, released an a double-cd called "worried noodles" which was basically shrigley's 2005 book set to music. the artists (which also include liars, tv on the radio, and grizzly bear) were asked or volunteered to do it, it was a compilation art piece.
