Feb 2022 10x10
these are always fun (as well as challenging). the exercise helped jump-start my other longer vocal songs as well.
1.
I broke into my own car
I smashed all the windows with a stolen crowbar
smashy, smashy, smashy, yeah!

I've got a rock in my shoe
I don't know what to do
I've got a rock in my shoe
owie ow ow ow
if only there wasn't this rock in my shoe
3.
housecat
full power
reaching speeds of 30 miles/hour

frantically loading a briefcase full with
office supplies
stealing office supplies

Don't I wish a Honda minivan would fall intact out of the sky onto my driveway about now...
Anyway, 10x10 game is VERY strong here. Love the range of styles and musical themes you've come up with!

So much fun. Loved all of these but the ones with pitch shifted vocals have to be my favourite, it just adds another layer of wonderful absurdity. Rock in my Shoe FTW!

So many different sounds. Your 10x10 is a fun collection. I enjoyed the sound of 4 and 6, but 10 "wins" for pure crazy clever.

Full-on Dada greatness here for sure.
Ten little slices of excellence.

Thank you, this is brilliant! So funny, and musically varied. Very inspirational! Can't relate to 1, 5 or 8, but 2, 3, 4 (paper, pencils, memo pads, I'm not proud on myself), 6 (Ikea) and 7 sound familiar. Love the height of 9, and the smashing sounds of 10 :-)
