Song 49

Song 49.

So I thought I was doing good at writing one song a day, and then the lovely Waye Mason told me that a friend of his wrote 10 songs in 2 days.

Now i want to do this. So this is song 5. I dont know if mine counts because I dont have recording gear here and thus can't record and write a 10 song record in 2 days here... But lets see how many songs I get. This is 5 for today.

Song 48

Here is another one for today.

Its starting to get cold here, but I'm poor.

Song 47

Hey Guys,

Yesterday morning there was a little tabby hit in front of my house.

My roommate Ben was on the way to the market and was the first one on the scene.

It was heartbreaking.

I live on a really busy street. My roommate lost a kitty on this street in March, and it seems to happen all the time. 

Growing up in New Glasgow I lived on a busy corner that we lost (knowingly) one of our cats to. It doesn't make it any easier though. Being a crazy cat lady that I am, I guess straight up animal lover it really sucks when this happens. Especially when you can't find the owners right away- and then there is the point of uncertainty. Its never easy loosing an animal. But it sucks when you don't know what happened. 

There was a week delay between our call to animal services and the call back to let us know that Oyster was hit.

So this is song 47 (three songs in one day!) 

Rest in peace, little tabby cat.

day 45

hey,

I was sick in bed all day yesterday.

Here is yesterdays.

This is because i had a dream my bedroom was on fire.

Day 44!

Hey Friends.

Thanks to Mark Woolley for helping me with this song.

Yesterday I thought it was friday. And then it turns out today is friday. So my IM status was "its friday! woah!" and Mark sent me a random message and all it said was "Everbody loves fridays"....

And so here is todays song.

Thanks Mark!

Thank you friends for being a source for lyrical inspiration.  Seriously, I've said it before I'm absorbing everything you say to use in songs. PROOF! 

This song is written from the perspective of my imaginary boyfriend while I'm touring. 

day 43

Hey Friends!

Todays song is time for something completely different...

My dear friend, Adriana owner of Argyle Fine Art- has one of the best sense of humors i've ever encountered. Teamed up with Krista from MNS I can only imagine what a pair they would be.

But, here is the catch Adriana put out an open call last night for songwriters to write a "upbeat song in a minor key, with happy words containing guacamole and stardust somewhere in the song." 

this is my take.

There have been some funny ones.

XO
