Zoloft

 


Zoloft Part 1

Zoloft part 1 is just a wee little rough draft; the full version of it is below. I mean, it starts out the same, but then I change it part way through. Zoloft (without the "part 1") is the more finished product, sorta.

Zoloft

Zoloft Mix 2

 This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 4. It's about how the girl, knowing she has to eventually break up with her boyfriend, gets all depressed. She decides to go back on Zoloft.

Someone Is Going To Die On Grey's Anatomy


Greys Anatomy

 This song is about how, whenever someone is about to die on Grey's Anatomy, there's almost always this sad, beautiful, poignant music that comes up. It's like, oh, I think this patient on the operating table is going to live! Then the sad, beautiful, poignant music comes up, and it's like, oops, they bled out. That's how I know somebody is going to die on Grey's Anatomy. That music comes on. Well, it's a different song each time. But they're all of the same category. This here little ditty is rough. My covid voice is gettin' the best of me these days.

Driving Through The Rain With Kitties


Driving Through the Rain With Kitties

 It's time for the yearly song with cats yelling in it cuz they were due for their little vet checkups. Here they are, yelling. A big rainstorm was starting, as I hit the road, complete with lotsa wind and everything. So, I figured, I'd make this little ditty about being all apprehensive about driving in the rain and wanting to make it home safely with the most precious cargo anyone could imagine. One's cats.

Dark Blue Winter, Part 2

 


Dark Blue Winter Part 2

 This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 4. It's sort of a sequel to the song I did a few weeks ago about it bein' the Dark Blue Winter. The gal in the album has become fairly certain that she's going to have to break up with her boyfriend, and it's making her all depressed.

Wrong Side of the Road


Wrong Side of the Road

 This song popped outta me on February 14th, but I only recorded the first part of it. Today, I recorded the second part of it. It's a song about, well, I guess, in general, it's a song about losing one's marbles. But the metaphor I use is that of me being a bus driver who finds herself driving on the wrong side o' the road. Ooooops!!!!!!! There're days I feel like the character in this song. Yes, indeed, I have days like that in recent times.

Wino

Wino Mix 2

Wino Mix 3

Wino Mix 4

 This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 4. It's about the girl bein' bummed out about her relationship goin' bad and turnin' to wine to make herself feel better. I gotta listen to it a few more times, I think, before I decide how I feel about it. Poopity poop.

I Don't Feel Nothing


I Don't Feel Nothing

 This is a song about that variety of depression where, rather than being down-in-the-dumps, per se, one feels all blank and empty and stuff. I dunno which sucks more, to be honest...bein' all down in the dumps and crying-ish, or being a blank blankness of void-y-ness. This is the kind of depression where you find yourself falling into a void, and you realize you're becoming the void you're falling into.

Bug Symphony

 Here's a song that's just a buzzing insect whose frequency varies. Well, it's me pretending to be a buzzing insect.

Bug Symphony

 

Let's Join Together


Let's Join Together

 This is Song #10 in the Loosey Goosey Lucifer series. The people in the tiny church go outside to see what the source of the light is that's comin' in through the windows.. They see Loosey Goosey Lucifer, and she sees them, too. They all figure out they have the same deal...in other words, they all want to save the world. Because they all have the same deal, they decide to join together. They all decide to save the world together.

The Dark Blue Winter

 

 This is the first song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 4. It's actually based on an old ditty that I wrote back when I initially realized I was most likely going to break up with the boyfriend the Fucked Up Relationship Album is about. I made a different chorus and I turned the original chorus into a bridge. I dunno if this is the definitive version of this song or not. I guess time'll tell. In any event, the prospect o' having to break up with horrible-boyfriend-man triggered a major depressive episode. But not as bad as the one I had during the summer that takes place in Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 2. 

Actually, scroll down for a better version of this song (it's a week later, and I souped it up in a good way.)


Then I went back and changed the beginning and ending of this song, cuz I didn't like the original ones. Here's the newer version, yeah.

Here's the one with the crappy beginning and end:



Here's the one with the beginning and end that I prefer, yeah, man.

Mountains in Your Eyes, Part 2


Yesterday's sucky version:

Mountains Part 2

 This is the next song in the Loosey Goosey Lucifer series. The people in the tiny church are singing, singing away, singing jolly hymns. Suddenly, they hear the buzzing of the fly outside - the fly is singing along with them!

New and improved version:

Mountains Part 2 Mix 2

Post script:

Upon further listening to yesterday's song, I found that it had serious deficiencies that needed to be addressed. The ending didn't sound nearly churchy enough. I increased the churchy flavoredness, by adding a bit o' Casio-from-the-80s-keyboard-fake-organ-magic, along with some extra vocals to give it that good, Churchly choirish, group-of-bad-singers flavor on the ending. It made it more climactic and less sucky.

New, improved version:


Sucky, original version:
