For this year's album title I'd like to bring back a suggestion I made for a previous album.

Merry Christmas! Album's Full.

The art could maybe have Krampus (or some other holiday figure) recreating the classic Cousin Eddie moment from Christmas Vacation.

You inspired this. :)

Gone, gone, O honky man,
And rise the M.C. Etrigan!

I've gotten another terrible idea for a track, but this would take some doing. It would be a parody of Time Of My Life where the male part is of course Santa and the female part is instead a reindeer making reindeer noises or— more likely— something that could be constructed into fake reindeer noises, like combining a horse and a goat or camel, possibly with some added human vocalization guessing what a reindeer sounds like. Ideally the backing track would instead be done with Christmas instruments like bells and whatever this instrument is (glockenspiel?) in Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. I could sing as Santa but I don't know that I'd be capable of creating the reindeer noises well enough or even have the time to do it.

Would anyone want to collaborate on this? I think it would be funny as Hell but difficult to pull off.

That sounds awesome. I'll actually be visiting some live reindeer next week and yeah, they do kinda sound like a mixture of common farm animals. They just don't vocalize much. Maybe that'll give me some inspiration.

Or, I'll ask their handlers if they have some kind of trick to call reindeer to them...

Excellent! My wife loves the original and she is now mortified that I'm going to be doing this. I can tell this is going to be great. I've blocked out which side sings what. Now I just have to write the parody lyrics, which may be harder than it would seem.

I've been trying to think of potential album names/art/themes and coming up empty. Maybe the Musk Twitter takeover would be a fun referential thing to work with, in lieu of the OTHER horrible things happening around the world.

That's not to say that horrible things can't inspire some amazingly cathartic songs and such. The 2016 thread was pretty great, especially Goon Aid: https://saxmas.robotcousin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/4-14-Whyd-We-Ruin-our-Christmastime_.mp3

This is what I fed the generator:

Santa Claus wanted to make a change
To up grade his old sleigh and reins
He went to Elon, for some advice
But Elon was extremely high

"I just bought Twitter", said Elon Musk
"Fourty four billion was what it cost"
The waste on display made Santa quite sick
"You promised you'd end world hunger, you prick!"

Santa Claus was extremely pissed
Elon was placed on the naughty list.
On Christmas morning, his stockings had coal
And the value of Twitter had fallen to null.

Oh, man. I'm still writing this year's Santa Odin story. I'm not even close to done and the very dialogue-heavy script is already halfway through page 15. 2021's The Year Without An Odin Claus was a full 24 pages and clocked in at over 46 minutes. I Saw One Ship (Called Naglfar) is going to be even longer, I'm sure, but I definitely plan on making it worth the length. I have a couple great ideas and I really look forward to making this year's entry in the series the best yet.

By the way, if anyone's interested in singing it, last year I got about halfway through writing a parody of Who Wants To Live Forever before I realized that me even jokingly attempting Freddie Mercury would be sacrilege. If anyone wants to do Who Wants To Open Presents, here it is.

quote:

There’s a box for us
Put in place for us
Who is this man who fills our tree
Then flies away from us?

Who wants to open presents?
Who wants to open presents?

There’s a sled for us.
There’s a robot for us
It’s got two D-cell batteries preinstalled for us

Who wants to open presents?
Who wants to open presents?
Who dares to open presents
On Christmas Eve?

So pass that gift to Little Rick
See the tag; it’s from old St Nick

And we can give out presents
And we can receive presents
Presents in our exchange

Who wants to open presents?
Who wants to open presents?
Presents in our exchange

Who waits for Christmas, anyway?

Maybe someone can help me out for full co-credit. I have in my head the line 'ooh-wee-ooh, it feels just like Christmas morning' to the tune of Weezer's Buddy Holly and I like it, but I'm getting absolutely, literally nowhere with the rest of the lyrics.

I thought it could be innocent, nostalgic and self referential in that it's about finding the videos on the windows 95 disc. Or something. Anything. Anything else will do, as long as it's not about Twitter or its miserable owner. It doesn't need to be clever funny if it can be genuine or silly.

Anyone with a half-decent sense of meter feeling this?

It could be about the Windows 95 Tutorial/promo video with Matthew Perry and Jennifer Aniston, though you'd be going further and further from it being Christmas themed.

Wee ooh
It feels just like Christmas morning

Wee ooh
It's embarrassing and more

I don't care about what Jennifer is saying now
I don't care 'bout Matt


That's.... Well, that's the best I can do in a few minutes. I bet if you go through the real lyrics, and then rewatch that godawful W95 video, more would come, if that's what you'd want to go for. :shrug:

EDIT: I just did a demo track of the vocals to Kirk's Red Wreath :ohdearsass::goatsecx: for anyone who wants to take a swing at music for it. This would give you the cadence for the music and I note where there's an instrumental break 3/5 of the way in. I'd do the music myself but I have neither the tools or anything resembling the ability.

Also, didn't we used to have a Santa smilie?

I am a little boy
I want the hottest toy
There's just one trick if I wanna get something
I've gotta be Good! Really good

'cause it's, it's so close to Christmas Time
Good behavior!

Christmas Time for the family, decorations up on the tree
I'll act nice and kind and gifts are mine
A naughty role will be met with coal

So I've, gotta be all I can be
Doin' homework!

Parents say that to get what I want
Good report card, cleanin' my room
I'll do all that and more
Be the most hardcore

'cause it's, it's so close to Christmas Time
and I'm so easily bribed

It seems like I've struck it rich
Shiny new Nintendo Switch
Games enough to stream on Twitch
Plan went off without a hitch!
But I've still gotta be good
Or they'll take them all away!

It's all a big charade
a holiday parade (know what I mean?)
but if I want more games next year
Do it all, again
