1. Bayesian Believer Brought to you by the Lyrics: Brad Carlin
Music: Neil Diamond/The Monkees/Smashmouth

2. I thought inference was just a fairy tale,

3. Confused by stats and probability.

4. Frequentist approaches made no sense to me.
Summarizing evidence by p?!

5. Then I saw Tom Bayes
Now I'm a Believer!

6. Without a trace
of doubt in my mind!

7. I couldn’t p now if I tried!
I’m a Bayesian!
Oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t p now if I tried!

8. I thought likelihood was just
the only thing.

9. Turn the crank and
get the MLE.

10. What's the use of thinking? Disconnect your brain.
Play along and minimize the pain.
MLE!

11. Then I saw Tom Bayes
Now I'm a Believer!

12. Without a trace
of doubt in my mind!

13. I couldn’t p now if I tried!
I’m a Bayesian!
Oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t p now if I tried!

14. GIVE IT UP FOR
DON HEDEKER!!

15. Fixed effects and forced normality!
SAS was out to get me.
That's the way it seemed.
Fixed effects and forced normality!

16. Then I saw Tom Bayes
Now I'm a Believer!

17. Without a trace
of doubt in my mind!

18. I couldn’t p now if I tried!
I’m a Bayesian!
Oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t p now if I tried!

19. Then I saw Tom Bayes
Now I'm a Believer!

20. Without a trace
of doubt in my mind!

21. Oh, I’m a believer, yeah, yeah
Bayes Rules!
