Cursed Karaoke

So, evidently the sims onstage, and what was previously singshot.com closed their doors and along with that deleted what must have been millions of karaoke performances from their servers. You would think I would know better and back things up after audioblogger did the same thing a few years ago......
I didnt back anything up.

So now all of my singshot songs, almost 200 are lost to the ages...as well as over 100 audioblogger posts.

sorry
thanks for stopping by.

Contest Featuring Human Beings, Guided By Voices

this is an audio post - click to play

The lyrics on the lyrics site my widget uses are wrong. Here is my interpretation:

I drew a blank when Mr. Snake came back from the track.
The official effects of, the cake tossed into the lake
and he crossed that lake, with his overpaid army
of rats and snakes on whiskey ships,
when they arrived they were alive,
they were fools, breaking rules,
for the entry into the pleasure pools.

and let them be and thats the lesson,
for overworked, dreamer and his cronies on
mini tramps and motorbikes, in a contest featuring human beings,
and other less sprouts
and other less sprouts

Some thoughts...

I have done 2 sessions since my last post, which have basically consisted of searching for songs to sing. I haven't found any. Any What? Any songs I feel that I can sing well enough. Well enough for what? Well enough to sing into your cell phone in your shed? No, well enough to feel good about singing. This isn't about singing well or feeling good Pete, this is about, about what is it about? I am not sure anymore. Thats ok, you dont have to be sure. It should not be about singing songs you are comfortable with. But those are the songs I like to sing. So? Is anybody actually listening to these? I doubt anyone listens to any all the way through. Why? I guess you sort of get it after you read what I am doing and listen a little bit. So what are you going to do about that? I do not know.

New requests

Judith has asked me to sing Motor Away by GBV as well as Don't Go Back to Rockville by R.E.M.
Can do!
Mr. Fletcher requested Lay Lady Lay by Bob Dylan which I barely know, I will have to study it for a bit and Mike has asked for some more Weezer.

I had the window open on the back of the shed the other night while recording, and I had this total rock star dream while doing all the Camper Van Beethoven songs. Their lead singer, Dave Lowery would be walking his dog through the alley, hear me singing, and be so impressed and flattered that he would ask me to join them on tour as he recovered from laryngitis. No such luck.
