Joe Cauliflower (previously known as "Joe Will Never Be The Same") is a solved electronic/synth-pop song posted to WatZatSong by user Guglielm in 2013.

Background[edit | edit source]

On July 13, 2013, the song was first uploaded to WatZatSong by user Guglielm,^[1] before being reuploaded on August 19, 2014 to add that the song was internally tagged as being created by "David Barron or Barren or Byron or Bearon". Guglielm also remembered that during the song's original radio broadcast on WFMU New Jersey, the artist was interviewed and spoke with the DJ.^[2]

Discovery[edit | edit source]

On May 3, 2024, a WatZatSong user whose account has since been deleted linked to a YouTube channel called DavidBaronMusic, who may have created the song.^[2]

On June 6, 2024, DavidBaronMusic commented on a reupload of the song by user q, confirming that he created the song while he was a music student to be played on WFMU, and it was played as a favor by his friend and DJ Bill Berger.^[3] He also confirmed that he created another one of Guglielm's lost songs, called "Ocean", that the song is called "Joe Cauliflower"^[4] and that the song was recorded in 1986.^[5]

He is currently waiting for his Tascam 244 tape deck to be repaired before posting the full song, as it is the only way his master cassette will be playable so it can be ripped and uploaded online.^[6]

On September 15, 2024, David Baron uploaded the full high-quality version of the song.^[7]

Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Presumed Lyrics

Well, the cauliflower rose to power

This is his final hour

He ruled all the controls

And he ruled the technical modes

Then one day, a microphone fell on him

Joe would never be the same

But the cords got together and they fixed ol’ Joe up

Now he’s bigger and stronger now

And he knows that he’s cauliflower, Joe

And he knows that he’s cauliflower Joe

And he knows, that he knows, that he knows

And he knows that he’s cauliflower Joe
