I Greyhound posted:Fun music Fact: Bobby "Boris" Pickett actually tried to follow Monster Mash with a holiday version. It was terrible and deserved to fade. I remember hearing that song as a child, but the only thing I could remember was the chorus. It is indeed even worse than I imagined. I also think it's weird that he took the nickname "Boris" when he takes the role of the mad scientist instead of the monster portrayed by Boris Karloff. If that sounds like I'm overthinking the Monster Mash, I counter that perhaps I am not overthinking hard enough.

Oh boy, here we go! I'll try to sling something together again E: So, uh, Well. I wrote something, but it's kind of hosed up. It's a romantic duet that needs a male and a female voice. And which happens to make me a little bit uncomfortable, and I wrote the drat thing. If you that think singing a super strange something for the album might be for you, send me a no-obligation PM for a look at the lyrics before you commit simplefish fucked around with this message at 09:41 on Nov 10, 2015 |

Schweinhund posted:A Charlie Brown Teacher's Christmas This is wonderful... but it is officially under the tree? EDIT: Ok, so this has already gotten off to a wonderful start. I mean, Just in the past 9-10 days, there have been 7 tracks made for this album already (8 if you count the sped-up Chipmunks version). This is great, guys. Jenny and I are going to be working on ours soonish. I was thinking about how we could use our musical powers for good (while also using them for evil, meaning the songs themselves). Every year, there are countless goons who chime in about how this album makes their year. 'It isn't christmas without more awful music'. Well, that's fantastic, it really is. But maybe we can do better. I was thinking about the possibility of setting up some sort of donation to charity tied to the album. I'm not saying the album would cost anything, it would still be completely free to download and/or stream, but perhaps there could be a donation set up to help out people in need at christmas. Maybe those who aren't up for creating a track would be ok with donating instead, and then we could raise some truly GOOD will along with the ire and glares from everyone who hates all of this music. I've never set up a charity donation before, so any and all advice is welcome. Is this a good idea at all? Is it viable? Do you think we could actually raise a significant amount of money? I'd love to try. Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 14:26 on Nov 10, 2015 |

Goons usually have a good idea as to what charities are reputable and which ones aren't. Anyone know who we could donate to and how? Also, good work goons! These songs are more terrible than ever! I especially liked the Alvin & the Chipmunks songs

I should have added to that message that you are the second of two male singing offers. I don't want the other kind volunteer thinking I shafted them unceremoniously; although, I haven't heard back yet (timezone difference, I think). They might refuse. Or there are two male parts so if you want to split it between you that's fine too. If you both want to be the only vocalist I don't know, I didn't exactly plan for that situation. Still looking for a ladysinger.

Anyone want to take a crack at singing this little ditty i wrote? I was hoping it would be sung halfway convincingly, maybe with some music in the background. I would try myself but i don't think i can make it through some of the more tongue-twister inducing parts

 My song is under the tree Guys, I'm really ashamed of myself. I don't know what I was thinking, and I don't know what's wrong with me. Where do these sentiments come from? But you know what, if possible, you should give someone your heart for Christmas. And that's what this song is about. Giving your heart for Christmas. Because isn't that what Christmas is all about?

Some of my favorites from past years: this is one of the few ones my roommates actually liked:  this was genuinely moving:  this is one of my favorite stealth songs, the kind that someone hears in the background and sorta tunes out, then halfway through the song goes "what... what the gently caress is this?":

And just to get it out of the way, here are the lyrics: When it comes to giving me the perfect gift you know you always had the one thing that I really need so if you want to know what I want this year I'm gonna tell you to the tune of this tropical beat chorus: won't you go and give me your heart for christmas won't you go and give me your heart so true so won't you go and give me your heart for Christmas or baby my Christmas is a gonna be blue II: you can throw away the keys to the brand new car and toys and games just won't do the only thing that I'm looking for this year is beating right there inside of you chorus bridge: now baby this year has been too long and this heart of mine has gotten weak but Christmas is the time for miracles you can bring some joy and life to me III: oh the car accident that put you in a coma was really just another blessing in disguise because I'm lying here in this hospital bed knowing next Christmas I will be alive I'm a truly terrible person.
