The Covid Years

The Covid Years Mix 2

 I had to do just one more song this year. Just one more. It's about how I got covid this year and it did me some good. True story! Mix 2 is better. The poops above are cryptic. They're there for a reason, but it's a cryptic reason.

2023, Thanks for Being Kind to Me


2023 was nice

2023 was nice mix 2

 Here's a little ditty about it being the end of the year. It's based on a little ditty I did in the beginning of the year. "2023 was nice" is the new one and "2023" is the one from a year ago, minus 2 days. I'm always a little sad when a year ends, cuz I get all sentimental and weird. Mix 2 might be better.

He's Not Dead

 


He's Not Dead and That's a Really Nice Thing

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. The girl is relieved that her boyfriend is not dead. I guess.

A Million Years - More Fleshed Out Version


I went ahead and added an instrumental part and a 3rd verse to yesterday's song for completion's sake. I think, though, I'm eventually gonna do another version, cuz my voice ain't in the best shape at the moment, and my violin needs a new bow. It's really hard to play fiddle music with a bow that's falling apart. Here's another picture of a sad man. He's a different sad man than the first sad man, but I think they, the 2 of them, might be related. Poopy poopy ones.

Million Demo

Million Demo

 Here's a little ditty I wrote back in 2015. Oddly, I was watching Grey's Anatomy last night, and there was a song on it that sounded a lot like this one. Rather than being horrified that a song already exists, much like this one, I got all in the mood to do another recording of it. It's a sad song, just a general sad song. A sad song about a sad man. The picture is of the sad man.

Christmas Song: That Night Before Christmas Show/Fucked Up Clock

 

That Night Before Christmas Show

 This is my Christmas song for this year. Remember that show that used to air in the 1980s called "the Night Before Christmas?" The only thing I remember about it is a fucked up clock. My brother recently said something about a dog ghost in it, and I'm all, "huh?" I'm, like, realizing my memory ain't as good as I thought it was. This is the Fun-With-Tritones-Christmas song.

Okay, it is January 20, 2024; upon listening to this song, I realized it needed an instrumental bridge. Here's it with one inserted, the latter half of which is rap stuff on top of it. But I think the rap part might make the bridge too long, as if it's wandering away from the song:

Night before xmas beefier beefed up

Here's one with a better transition between the regular song and the instrumental:

Night before xmas beefier beefed up2

 Here's a version with an instrumental bridge, closer to what I'd initially been imagining:

Night before xmas beefed up

Thump

 

Thump

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. It's about the girlfriend hearing a thump coming from upstairs and wondering if her boyfriend fell over. Suddenly, a sense o' relief comes over her, as she thinks, "maybe he fell down dead." Then she realizes, that's maybe not a good sign to be relieved that your boyfriend is dead.

Thieves Into the Night - Mix 1

 


Thieves Into the Night Mix 1

 I'm gonna re-do the instrumental part of this song. As soon as you hear it, you'll probably have a good idea why. Anyway, it's a song about how America has and insomnia epidemic, and it's because aliens come in the night and steal our sleep. Apparently, said sleep, is a vast energy source for these aliens. They use it as rocket fuel and stuff. In any event, stay tuned for a version (hopefully tomorrow) that'll have an instrumental section that is a little less...um, piercing? Something like that.

Hmmm, the instrumental part's kinda growing on me. I'll see how I feel in the morning, yessiree, man.

Edit: It's yesterday's tomorrow (or, in other words, today), and I re-did the instrumental part. Here it is with the re-did instrumental part, and a little add-on thingy at the end:

Thieves In The Night Mix 4

 


Here's the newer version:

A Little Bit of Grey in It

A Little Bit of Grey in It

  This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. Yes, I have memories of my life bein' grey when I was with that dude. I was all, yay, I'm happy cuz I'm with a dude. But the color of my life was simultaneously grey.

Good Night, Sweetie

Good Night Sweetie

This song came to me in a dream this morning. See, I've been thinking about the moment the clock switches over to midnight and, suddenly, it's the next day. My brain has recently been askin', what if (for example) December 8th was my last good day, and something horrible is going to happen on December 9th?

The image this song brings up is of someone whose partner is not long for this world. Maybe terminally ill or something like that. And every night, when it becomes midnight, the protagonist wonders if yesterday was the last day her partner will have spent 24 hours with her. Will the new day be the day he dies? And when that does eventually happen, her life will be divided in 2. The before-time (the time before her partner died) and the after-time (the time after her partner died). Yeah, I guess this song is a little depresso-genic.

I mean, the partner could also be female. I just said, "the day he dies," and stuff for the sake of brevity.

If He Finds Out I'm Talking To Them

If He Finds Out I'm Talking To Them

Here's the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. Yup, yes, yessiree, more boyfriend-controllingness, as mister controlling butthole man continues to persist in isolating his girlfriend from her friend.

Give Up All My Friends


Give Up All My Friends

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship, Part 3. The crappy boyfriend tells the girl she has to give up all her friends. Cuz they smoke weed. Or cannabis, as he calls it. If you know anything about abusive relationships, you probably know that isolating one's partner from their friends (and family) is an abusive-boyfriend strategy. Poopity poop.

God Loves Us Demo (Another Drunk-Church Attempt)

 

God Loves Us

 This is probably the 5,000th song where I'm attempting to sound like a drunk church. There are actually some drunk church-y moments, which I'll call a success, cuz usually, I don't sound like a drunk-church when I'm trying to; and, occasionally, I end up sounding like a drunk-church, when I'm not tryin' to do it. In any event, I listened to my first abortive attempt at writing the song, "Half Blind and Out of Balance," the other day; and there was one moment in the song that I'd forgotten about, one part that I really liked. I figured, hey, let's put that part into a new song, woohoo. This is just a demo, by the way. I'm hopin' to flesh this out at some point.
