The Cheap Imitation
"The Cheap Imiatation" was my original performance name, since I was a "cheap imitation" of a real band. I did release a cassette (titled Not Ready Yet), but I had to compromise with my original idea for it because not all the tracks were ready. Here's what I more or less originally wanted it to be:
- Suite:
- Blue Fields of Green
- Antarctica (instrumental)
- weird interlude
- Daydream of the Psychoanalyst (instrumental)
- bluegreen interlude
- Perpetual Motion
- dangerous interlude
- Monorail to Nowhere (instrumental)
- Your Brilliant Career
- The Penguin Song
There would have been smooth transitions between most of the songs. For example: after the last line of YBC ("You will speak at the tone"), I was going to have a telephone answering machine beep and then "And now, the Penguin Song" would be in a telephone-voice.
Simple Songs for Simple Folk
Not enough songs for this album yet... but here are the tracks I think would fit within this rubric:
- We Believe
- I Love the TSA
- Stop and Smell the Roadkill
- Post-Atomic Wasteland (maybe)
- "Pull the Ladder Up Behind You" (currently in Unfinished/songs)
- If I was going to include parodies:
- finish with the Expository National Anthem
not titled yet: regular songs
This would be a collection of what I'd currently consider "good songs", possibly tied together with other stuff that's enjoyable despite not being particularly good song-wise.
As a reference to the gap between starting and finishing some of these songs, maybe something like Woozalia's Anticipated Hits: 1985-2017
- All the Beautiful Girls
- Sweet Dreams, Good Night
- Spilling Time From a Bottle
- Your Brilliant Career
- Don't Call the Doctor
- Dana Auditorium 3AM should probably be in here somewhere
- Someday
- Perpetual Motion, if I can ever finish it into a satisfactory form
- Anatomic Reaction
- Dysfunctional Family Blues (needs re-recording)
- If This Goes On
- possibly:
not titled yet: non-political humorous original songs
- The Penguin Song
- Losing All My Organs
- Going Through the Motions maybe, except S doesn't like it
- Arrested, maybe? Not sure it's worth recording at this point.
