You can kill a Target by breaking the secret mirror right?

This title is begging for a reworking of Narbotic's "I wanna be City Hall"

I am a Target...

... but I'd rather be a Wal-Mart

I Am A Joy!

Wow.

I'm wondering whether maybe the title should have been "I Am A ______".

I think I might be in this one. Excellent title!

I don't know about this one. Any chance I can live my musical life through a proxy lyricist? Even given all the emotional turmoil and all the free verse I've been scrawling everywhere as of late, I'm feeling a little Bacharach on this one. Somebody step in and David this shit up.

David who? Hrmm...

Edit: Nevermind... Hal David... I wiki'd that shit!

I agree, and I agree. (Emphasis on the "might").

I have lots of ideas for POV concepts, but no lyrical ideas. So, to help anyone who thinks this is a terrible title with limited potential:

- Target store (as others mentioned above)
- Being a garden gnome who the neighborhood kids use as target practice (footballs, nerf pistols, water balloons, toilet paper)
- An Iraqi
- That kid in school that everyone hates and wedgies
- Someone either sick of or embracing being a marketing/demographic target
- frankie big face's heart (as a parody of his "Bullseye Girl")

I want a 'possible angles for this title' post from fluffy every week.

fluffy · Post by **fluffy** » Fri May 08, 2009 2:34 pm

Usually I suck at coming up with them. This one was more like, "Man, what a dumb title. I can't think of anything for it. Except maybe [foo]. Well and I guess [bar]." and then I realized, wait, lots of ideas.

Or alternatively: someone who is bummed out at *not* being a traditional target demographic market.
(I am a 77-year-old half-Aztec half-Eskimo hermaphrodite vampire but damnit, I am a target too!!)

Maybe not.

Song written, and a rough arrangement recorded! Just have to tweak the arrangement in my head for a couple days, practice vocals, re-record everything, and she's good to go!

Yeah it looks like Ujn and I will be in. In celebration of getting on the wagon we decided to ditch the synths and start a STRAIGHT EDGE HARDCORE band. Assuming no one falls off between now and Saturday, of course.

In deference to your eardrums its got a poppy, Chthonic kinda feel in the middle. But the core is hard, albeit not the middle. Anyway, it's only 80 seconds long.... so even if you hate it you won't suffer toooo much.

My target is to finish this song tonight. Working furiously to finish an accompanying video, trying to ignore the imminent deadline
