The Song Fight Bulletin Board

Next title: I'm Eating A Wasp (part 1)
Due: Saturday, 12/18/10 9:59 AM Pacific Time
Optional challenge: don't work ahead

It's the "part 1" that really gets me.

Sting for your supper!

For this mission, should I decide to accept it, I am situated geographically and inspirationally between Hayden Mugford and the unfortunate Stephen Duckett. I guess that means I worked ahead. . .

Over/under on the number of songs about performing cunnilingus on well-to-do Caucasian women: 2

Any guesses what the optional challenge is about? I guess we've been having some people working on music before the titles are posted, is that it?

I think the implication is that there may or may not be additional parts to the title and they don't want people writing the entire rock opera up-front.

I'll give it pretty good odds of happening, I know it was my first thought.

Then why is it optional? That implies it is also an option to work ahead.

That's using your noodle!

Getting space/drugs/suicide/slow and low on this one.

$20 if you can name all the samples I used.

Second thought was a Dahmer song... But he mostly ate minorities didn't he?

Hey -- For our file names, do we omit the parentheses? -- i.e. is it
yourbandname_ieawp1.mp3
or
yourbandname_ieaw(p1).mp3
?

because i seem to have lost my entire GoM entry and will need to redo that on my one day off this week, i was unable to turn this song into the full funk anthem it deserves, so you get the bad boys unplugged version... its only like 2 mins so you wont have to hurt your ears for that long.

I just wanted to let you know that "eating a wasp" and "fixing a hole" fit the same melodies.

My entry for this fight is almost ready. It consists, in part, of a narrator reading a Dec 7 news story about someone finding a wasp in a Jaffa cake. I bet you can't guess what key it's in!

This is juxtaposed against the audio of an encounter between bureaucrat Stephen Duckett and some members of the media, now available on YouTube, in which Mr. Duckett avoids questions with the repeated response "I'm eating my cookie." (Mr. Duckett lost his job over the incident.)

There are various other arty goings-on involving a detuned electric guitar, a pair of drumsticks, a flat-topped microphone, and some keyboard samples. I've commented on this kind of music many times, so I'm putting my money -- uh, where my mouth is.

I love the winter break. In.

BOOM! .

Like Ujn said, we're in -- with our shortest song evar. A little blast of hardcore for all you punk rockers!

Some vox and uke recorded. Needs arranging (and being less stupid). Maybe.

In.

Also: "Ten Years Ago"??!? WTF!?

The Real Sign is back, with Realist doing most of the production and writing.

Now, if we could get a review thread and some art, we would be in business!

SPUD

May I suggest American Gothic with a giant wasp impaled on the pitchfork?
