-
- An idea for a
niche in the music industry...
-
- ...except the
music industry is insane, right? You simply cannot
make money off it. Hit song on spotify? You make $16.
Who buys iTunes downloads anymore? CDs? Are you
kidding? So what the hell do I do with this
idea?
-
- I write about it,
I upload this video... and then I move on.
I think.
-
- Every parent knows
that no matter how madly in love with your baby you
are, at some point? Your mind is looking for adult
stimulation. You can sing the lullabies and rock him
or her to sleep but if you're like me? You, well, you
just start saying shit that only you get to make your
spouse (or often just yourself) smile. Inevitably, for
someone who spent years on the radio making parodies,
you start singing THE most awful lyrics to
nursery rhymes and lullabies because the kid is 5
months old and simply likes your voice...
-
- ...what if
I made them slightly less awful, you know
"Slightly Twisted Lullabies" that parents could
actually sing to their kids and smile a bit? That
would help right? 'Cause there is some mindless
portions of that night where you just need some
stimulation, but you do want to sing to your kid. So I
present a lullaby I often sang to
Vienna...
-
-
- Now, admittedly,
often what I really sang was the filthiest
shit you've ever heard. But just once, I'm gonna hold
back a bit and find that line of mildly
innappropriate.
-
- But again, why? In
all seriousness. Do I start a kickstarter
campaign for recording a 10 lullabye CD?
I fucking HATE kickstarter campaigns, but it
seems like the only way anyone, EVER, makes
money producing music anymore. And
GODDDDDDDDDD I don't have it in me to bug
everyone for money to record something I can
record for free. I mean I guess it's like
pre-ordering the album but the concept is just
annoying. I can't sell shit. I just want to
give everything away and make people
happy.
-
- If only happy
people fueled my electricity. Hmmm.
