New song - “Going Back For More”

January 26, 2010 9:31 pm

New song tonight, this one’s called “Going Back For More.” Like a wee little bird, I sing songs for you. La la la la la. For those of you taking notes at home this one’s about a guy that was messed up, got cleaned up, and now perseveres, mostly on cliches and grit. I confess, I love little songs like this. Close your little eyes and imagine someone like maybe the bastard love child of Trent Reznor and Dilbert singing it. It’s also got a wicked 30 second piano intro.

New Song - “Keep Climbing Mountains”

August 29, 2009 8:50 pm

New song tonight, this one’s called “Keep Climbing Mountains.” It’s written from the perspective of a guy that puts one foot in front of the other and finds himself climbing mountains. Funny how that works eh. It’s also not a bad bike racing song. Happy climbing.

New song - “Decision Maker”

August 20, 2009 8:48 am

New song today, “Decision Maker.” In it we take a break from our usual fare of inspiritional tales of grit and determination to, well, basically to make fun of people. (Yes I am a small man … a small, petty man.) So here’s to the Decision Maker — may you live forever in your Cliff Clavin cocoon of awesomeness. Hey btw I’ve got a question — whats the best way to fell a migrating moose in heat … with a crossbow?

Song - “God Lives”

August 13, 2009 6:59 am

New song, “God Lives.” Empires come, empires go. Civilizations rise, get fat, get weak, get gone. Their inhabitants always striving for survival, or for “more,” for bigger caves, bigger huts, bigger homes, bigger offices, bigger cost-of-living raises, bigger market control, bigger happiness. Destroying ourselves with shabby facsimiles, inventing and re-inventing every sad distraction under the sun. Slavery, prostitution, wars, lawncare. Millennia after mind numbing millenia. Silly humans. You’ll never find it.

Song 38 - “Do What Counts”

June 12, 2009 10:09 pm

New song tonight just in time for the weekend, when, er, pretty much noone is on their computer. This one’s called “Do What Counts.” I like this one. It’s got a real “dad rock” vibe to it. “Go on, kids, do what counts. Don’t listen to the haterz. Work for it. Don’t quit when it gets hard. Hell, it’s always hard. If it was easy, everyone’d be doing it.” The gipper himself would be inspired by this raucous rock us.

Anyways. BLAST IT! And enjoy.

Song 37 “My Time Machine”

June 1, 2009 9:29 pm

New song today. I’ve been saying for years that when I build my time machine, I’ll go here, and I’ll go there, and I’ll figure out just how they did so-and-so. So I’m pleased as punch that this number worked out to be about my prized mythical possession, “My Time Machine.”

(Yo, MC Katie, you counting? Here’s song #3 in the five-part kids song series.)

Song 34 - “A Funkier Groove” (plus BONUS KIDS VERSION!!!)

May 11, 2009 6:39 am

Happy Monday folks. New song today - “A Funkier Groove.” It’s about trying something new, a little thing I like to call “forgiveness,” when mean nasty life hands you a big grumpy glass of sour grapes. Remember forgiveness? Me neither. But it’s toe tappin’ time.

In a stunning innovation, I’ve also released an entirely different song, but sung — get this — to the exact same music! Wow, it’s two-for-one Monday people. You can’t buy that kind of innovation. Mixmaster Katie wanted to hear some kids songs. (Because let’s face it — here in the rarified air of Launch Day Inc. global headquarters, we’ve all got more kids than we know what to do with.) So this one’s for the little guys in their yoda jammies. It’s technically called “Play By Your Rules” but at the moment it’s logged in the database as “A Funkier Groove Kids Version.”

As always, crank it and enjoy.
