Cool, I can write something festive for the holidays and about the Donner party all in one song. Nothing says Christmas like a heart warming story about cannibalism.

I call dibs on lyrics about biting and/or being bitten by a girl named Frost. (No, not in a vampire kind of way. Sorry Twilight fans)

The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there, written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible. -Vladimir Nabokov, (1899-1977)

The world needs more cartoon music. I oughta do something here before year's-end, eh?

Yes, Rabid, it does and you should. Throw us a 'toon-tune.

Wow, Nabokov was a slow writer.

but what a short story he turned in ....

I haven't written a song yet, but I've got a beat, a hook line...and a sample of Glenn Beck.

HeadShot · Post by **HeadShot** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 10:45 pm

Got a beat and a concept, and with my new USB condenser mic I may actually have a noteworthy entry for once

Edit: Almost done with the recording, just gotta record a good ten seconds of screaming, and then mix the tracks and I'm in

Just for the record, five years ago this week we tied with Pipe Fist for the Les Anchois fight.

'H' comes before 'P,' of course, but we can't take credit for that.

Post by **Spud** » Thu Dec 17, 2009 12:12 am

Wow, thanks for giving credit where credit is due. Don't know how I missed that.

I am tentatively in, depending on whether I can gather up some lyrics pertaining to something I've never experienced living in Texas. Interesting...

Can I use some machine guns this time?

Kapitano · Post by **Kapitano** » Fri Dec 18, 2009 8:33 am

Can I use some machine guns this time?

Depends who you're going to use them on

.

I'm all mixed down and mastered up, with a song featuring:

* Impossibly fast rapping
* Tape hiss
* Turntablism
* Vinyl crackle and amplifier hum
* A vocoder from 1983
* Monty Python's Flying Circus

I'm in, very early, as I now have to go away for a week without internet access.

Apologies for the resulting roughness.

Believe it or not, Mr. $, you are the third one in.

jeff robertson · Post by **jeff robertson** » Sat Dec 19, 2009 7:15 pm

Nevermind whatever I said I was going to do earlier. I'm doing a Carter Family kind of thing.

EDIT: my song is explicitly religious, as you can see from the lyrics. While I don't (anymore) actually hold all the beliefs expressed in the lyrics, rest assured I am not mocking them, I consider them appropriate for the genre. Old time religion for an old time song.

With apologies to Kapitano, I'm in. Also of note: While it may not be as impressive a run as the Weakest Suit's, I've met my goal of entering every fight this year. Got one lined up for pre-31st? Bring it, baby!

The Weakest Suit · Post by **The Weakest Suit** » Tue Dec 22, 2009 8:29 pm

in with my 100th song submitted to this site (including alter-egos and nur ein entries).
don't expect much, though. i only had a bit of time to pull something together this week.
the song is inspired by the plot of the librivox book i'm listening to now to and from work.
merry christmas, everyone.

Hmm, it looks like I just hit 100, myself, by entering the current fight. Sweet.
