Gloomy Gus Last Song of First Part of the Album

 

I lost count...this is either song 18 or 19 or 20 of Gloomy Gus and the Forest That's About to Die. It is really dark. But then it isn't dark at the end. If you get to the end, you'll see it's not as dark as it at first appeared.

Make America Fucked Up Again

It's my annual I'm-not-celebrating-the-4th-of-July-themed song, which I've been doing since 2022 cuz America is on the fucked up side. My good friend suggested doing a song called, "Make America Fucked Up Again," so that's what I did.

All My Friends Are Far, Far Away From Me

I miss living in a place that has actual friends in it. I have the coolest friends in the world! But they don't live around here. The one friend I had who lived around here died, and that makes me sad.

Alternative Mix With a li'l bit o' rapping at the end:

Hell Is Other People (Fuck My New Fucking Neighbors)

There's an expression: "Hell is other people." That is true. This is a song about my new neighbors; they've only been there 3 days and my head is ready to explode. This isn't a very good song, though, and my singing voice is ass this week.

Gloomy Gus Song 17

 

It's still gettin' a little dark in Gloomy Gus Land. The owl in the picture doesn't have anything to do with the song. Or does he?????? This is kind of a rough mix.

I fixed some vocals: Sheesh! I was an actual semi-tone off in one part!!!!!! Argh. No, yeah, I'm glad I tried again. Yeah, okay, yeah, yes. I'm glad I tried doing those vocals again. This is a rough mix.

Bonus track (I might add to it tomorrow) Make them go away forever. If you've ever had a bad neighbor situation, you'll be able to relate:

Music For Blocking Out the Sounds of Screaming Kids: Peacocks

My friend and I were at a winery yesterday. It was a winery that had peacocks walking around. They were yelling a lot, and it dawned on me that this could be part of the concept album I've been cooking up in my head - Music for Blocking Out the Sound of Screaming Kids. I hate the sound of screaming kids - it is the worst sound in the world. Would a song with a bunch of peacocks yelling block out the sound of screaming kids if I played it nice and loud on my li'l speaker? We'll see. Anyway, I might make a concept album of songs with annoying, high-pitched sounds engineered to block out the annoying high-pitched sounds of horrible kids.

Here's a version with more (and slightly louder) peacocks because the peacocks peter out a little bit at the end:

Lots and Lots of Cats

I actually recorded this little ditty a few months ago, and I was saving it for a rainy day (i.e., a day where I didn't have time to record a new little ditty). Such a day has come to pass, so here it is. My phone told me I had "lots and lots of cats" in my camera roll, so that inspired this here little number.

Welcome to the Show

This is another depresso song; it's this whole metaphor thing, where, like a bad TV show is a metaphor for life as we know it right now. Oh yeah, there's a part that includes all my cats in it - my current cats and the cats I had before.

After I smoked some weed, I kept on having a teeny tiny bit of rapping that stuck in my craw, so I made it a tiny bit different. Not that anybody else would notice, but yeah, yes, okay, yes.

Bonus Weekend Song (Cuz It's a Long Weekend, and an Idea Popped Into My Head): I am Just a Fox

Here's a bonus track for this week...I'm not sure how this song'll age, but here it is. A person thinks of herself as all soaring and majestic, like an eagle, but she's actually a fox.

Gloomy Gus Song 16 - Time to Say Goodbye

I guess this album is getting a wee little bit dark...don't worry, it gets lighter in time, but not that much lighter.

Here's a version where I messed with one of the bars of rap and added a little to the ending. We'll see how this version ages, versus how the above one ages. 

Songs About How Kids Suck

 

Have I ever mentioned that kids suck? They wouldn't suck so much if their parents weren't moronic asswipes that let them scream like banshees and irritate everyone within a 5 mile radius.

Here's a more polished version of the song...there was a line of rapping that was kind of clunky sounding, which in turn, made it hard to understand, so I polished it up a bit! (It probably has a big, dumb, long pause at the end):

Old-People-Who-Wear-Sunglasses-Over-Their-Glasses Sunglasses

 I got some old-people-who-wear-sunglasses-over-their-glasses sunglasses. It's a true story!!
