Anal Anal Anal, Hum Hum Hum

Made ya look, perv.

I don't want to turn the Chaos Wastes forums into my own personal bitchathon so that's why we have warbles.

The latest task is to create a song about Shitty Blog Survivor. Didn't have to be an epic ballad or anything, just come up with a song about Shitty Blog Survivor, sing it and send it. Simple enough, right? Wrong.

This sort of task is Hell on earth for the overly anal. I am proudly overly anal. No re-singing of TV themes here, we're going to make a song. Yah , right. First let's sit on our ass and piss the first week away and get nothing done on it except talk about what a great idea I had. Very productive.

4 days before it's due in it's time to start freaking out because the vocal fader I was so sure would make my life easy doesn't exist and the one for winamp doesn't work with this song. Uh oh.

I managed to snag a 25 second clip off the beginning of the song that worked so I pasted it over and over until I had a 5 minute and 21 second instrumental which Meathe said was smooooooth. If Meathe says it's smooooooth, I feel good. It only took 3 hours, that's not bad for the anal. Now the fun starts.

The chorus of the song is simple, it's only 2 lines and some humming. I came up with the two lines quick enough, recording them and not sounding like a dying hen is another story. Over an hour so far and I still don't like what I've got. Then comes the humming, I sound like a demented kazoo. I can't believe I'm having so much trouble humming, I'm usually a pretty good hummer (interpret how you will).

If I ever manage to get the humming, I have to mix it with the two lines and then plop in into all the chorus spots individually. That should take me into the wee hours. Did I mention I haven't got any lyrics yet? No? Well guess what, sunshine? I aint gots no lyrics yet.

Then if I ever get to that point, the one with the voice in this house has to take my creation and put it to the instrumental. Then and only then will I be satisfied with this task.

There is definitely something wrong with my head that I'm so into this and being so friggin' anal with it, I see the signs and I acknowledge them and I flip them (and cancer) the bird.

Pardon me, I must hum again now.

4. I might be out.  Being on vacation for the first week, and only having like 2 and 1/2 days left and my hubby refusing to leve the house so I can record I dont know if I’m going to get it done.

5. You should be able to get an immunity for doing the nude shot, I don’t think anyone would squawk and if they did we’d toss them over the island cliff.

6. I’d go for letting YummY have a free pass on this one.
   The more I read about your song, Kittyn, the more frightened I get.
