Grumpy Sweetheart



This is a grumpy baby. She's grumpy cuz I have no time to post anything cuz I'm way, way, wayyyy overworked till next Monday (and then some).

Oy. But, there're 3 new Timmy and Bobby songs, although I think I might re-record one o' them. they'll be on the way soon-ish (or when I get less insanely busy) I swear, I didn't check email till 6pm today, bleh.

It Builds, Yes It Does

Oh, yeah, with the song of the week for this week, if you get bored during it, it's cool if you try to hang on till the end cuz that's sorta my favorite part of it (maybe about the last 1/3 or 1/4 of it). Yeah, man, yeah. Okay, cool.

Smart and Good

I've been tempted to re-record this one at a faster tempo, but, like, haven't yet. So I'll go ahead and put it on here cuz whoops. I just got interrupted by a really shitty, stressful phone call. Where was I?

Right, yeah, it's like, I've gone back and forth a lot on whether I like the tempo or think it's too slow. It's a good tempo for the chorus, but I'm not sure, in terms of the verse. Then again, I do like it cuz it's heavy and ominous and has this horrible, giant machine industrial feel to it.

This week, I was swamped-ass, swamp-gas, good lord, Jesus. I have 3 recordings, but one o' them is on the slow side, and I may record a faster version soon-ish. There're 2 T and B ones, but I wanna re-mix one, and the other, I don't like the order of stuff in the song, so I'm gonna re-record it differently. I wanted to post something to let you guys know I didn't disappear into the ether (although it sort of feels like it these days). Bleh. I'll keep you posted on the posting.

Next Timmy and Bobby Song

Download Tandb5

Although there are 2 that precede it, but somehow they didn't end up on this particular thumb-drive. Hmmm. Maybe they're on my other thumb drive. One of the ones that precede it, as I said yesterday, is one I'm not sure if I'll include in the "final product." Still not sure. But I'm thinking about it. I probably will, though. This song was originally gonna be a Wizard Rock song, but the main character, previously was supposed to be J.K. Rowling, ended up bein' one o' Timmy and Bobby's friends, instead. (Hah, or maybe Timmy and Bobby are friends with J.K. Rowling!)

More T and B to Come

I'm thinkin' 'bout, letsee here. Okay, I have about, letsee here, 3.5 Timmy and Bobby songs people haven't heard yet, and I'm trying to figure out whether to post them 1 at a time or all at once. Cuz, like, if I post Song #1 in the progression (and I'm still tryin' to think about whether to include it in the whole thing or not, but I think I will, probably). Wait, what was I saying? Okay, so if I post #1, I'd sort of like to post #2 and #3 at the same time, cuz, like, I dunno. It sort of sounds better when you hear what follows it next. I dunno, man. I'll think o' something.

Fake Mormon Hymns

Okay, I'll do the fake Mormon Hymns. I kind of wish in the last post that I coulda just said that it was my idea to come up with fake Mormon hymns, but that wouldn't be honest. It just wouldn't be honest. I've done this thing before where I try to predict what David Byrne's music will sound like before I listen to it. I actually decided not long ago to not do that again, but that sort of went out the window, cuz, you know I had these vivid pictures in my head o' what fake Mormon hymns might sound like.

The first one is the closest to what I imagined, although the theme is more general God-stuff and less about Mormonism in particular. The second one is more Mormon in particular in theme, but not very politically correct. The 3rd one is just a straight rock song (but again, thematically pretty Mormon-ish). Hah.

Bleh

I'll probably post on Friday cuz I have a couple hours in the day I can do that in. Today's nonstop, starting at 9am, bleh. Oh, no wait, I have 1 free hour. To do paperwork in. I'm trying to decide between the next installment of the Timmy and Bobby series, or a, well, this is hard to explain. "Fake Mormon Hymns." Or, more precisely, "Fake 'Mormon Hymns'" Since I've never heard what a Mormon hymn sounds like. I saw on Amazon Dot com that David Byrne wrote a soundtrack for some HBO series, I guess involving Mormon people, and he'd listened to a buncha Mormon hymns and wrote a buncha fake ones in the same style. I sorta got a vivid picture of what those might sound like, so I wrote 3 "hymns" with Mormon themes from my imagination, ha ha ha. This is getting too long. I'm tired, and I'm fighting off some kind of virus that involves a sore throat, but the situation at work is so bad that I have to come in, even if I end up with a fever of 104 or something. It kind of sucks.
