Hm, thought that term was "cacaphony". Another thing learned! The challenge in itself isn't very hard, but it's not easy to do it so that it actually fits the song well. Interesting. Also, the title is just begging for ANOTHER crazy person song from me. Sigh. Why can't you mix up things more? I want to write something happy for once. :P

I was just having a joke. With challenges like this, I'm usually inclined to write something sad.

Patient Number 6 was happy. But do we really need another song about patient number 6? I think not.

Bummer. I work on medical software for a living. I can make a lot of cacophony about it.
If I had a dollar for every one of my songs j$ has called a 90s pastiche, I'd have $1 for every song I've written.

I'm sure you could write a whole symphony with them, BLT.

Well, I've been wanting to do an acoustic entry for the past few rounds... This will be the time. Just have to make sure I can record it properly with 1 mic... Or ask my sister's man for help with that.

Well, I've got my lyrical idea and I won't be using the musical definition of cacophony but rather the noise definition. Now on to the musical approach.

I'm doing mine about a cross dressing male prostitute named Maverick Scud that was born without a penis. So the only way he could make money at his selected field was to get a phony cauwk surgically attached. (I think the scientific term is called an addadicktome) Anywho, he needed to make money for the surgical procedure, so he had to wear a strap on until he could make fat stacks, but they kept breaking off in politicians asses and his strap on budget was getting crazy. So he decided he would get a titanium dildo, thus the term and band name Steely Dan, and started using that on his Johns. Before you know it, he became famous and well known by everyone in politics. They even named a missile after him used in the latest war and one regular customer that ran for president once even took on a nick name named after him because he liked his skills so much.

...or I'll just do a song about trees or something. :?

I think you have an unhealthy obsession with crossdressing male prostitutes.

That's good and all, but double track it. It'll sound fuller.

I already took two painkillers against the headache... No effect, as usual.
