9/11: the musical...

Okay, so I finally got around to talking some musician types into playing, singing and recording the parody I wrote a while back to the tune of Piano Man by Billy Joel, and they are now finishing it up. Tomorrow, I will have a cd of the recording.

So, my question is this: how do I convert it from cd to mp3 (or whatever other format I should be converting it to) and then how/where do I upload it to the internet so that I can share it here?

To rip from CD to MP3, you should first try audiograbber. I haven't used it in years but it was quite user-friendly, IIRC.
 
All I can say is

:clap::clap::clap:

Soooo many great parodies!
Andrew Loyd Webber could have the makings of the next great Broadway musical with the material in this thread!
:D
 
How about a Duh bunker Musical? You already have a song where the lyrics don't need changing...


I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head, I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

I'd unravel ev'ry riddle
For any individ'le
In trouble or in pain

With the thoughts you'd be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln,
If you only had a brain.

Oh, I could tell you why
The ocean's near the shore,
I could think of things I never thunk before
And then I'd sit and think some more.

I would not be just a nuffin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain--Whoa!

Oh, but it so easy to change them just a tiny bit...

I could while away the hours
With chicken-wire towers
A soda-bottle plane
But my lame reconstruction
Cannot model the destruction—
If I only had a brain.

I’d be all “just askin’ questions”
Take umbrage at suggestions
I’m causing people pain

You’re the dumbest man I’ve met, sir—
You could be another Fetzer—
How I wish you had a brain.

Oh I… could tell you why
They fell at free fall speed
I could tell what kind of thermite they would need
And then I’d sit—and smoke more weed.

I would not be just a looser
My head all full of woo, sir
And clinically insane
I would grin like a monkey
Watching Judy Wood get clunky
If I only had a brain!
 
Very nice, Merc. This poetry-on-demand feature is great!

Since this thread has re-surfaced, I've been meaning to add my own lesser efforts to the thread of record.

Pull It
(with apologies to Devo)

Light that fuse.
Leave behind no clues.
Step on a crack.
Break your mother's back.

When a problem comes along.
You must pull it.
Before the lease goes on too long.
You must pull it.
When something's going wrong.
You must pull it.

now pull it.
to the ground.
shake it down.
get straight.
go forward.
move ahead.
they won't detect it.
it's not too late.
to pull it.
pull it good.

When a good time turns around.
You must pull it.
You will never live it down.
Unless you pull it.
No one gets their way.
Until they pull it.

I say pull it.
Pull it good.

And from http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2901573#post2901573 (with updated spelling):

Clunkity-Clunk
(with apologies to The Coasters)

Put on your hat and cape of black
Then order NORAD to stand back
If there's no terrorist attack
You won't get to invade Iraq
Clunkity-clunk (don't talk bunk)

Go get some thermite and C4
And plant them in the towers' core
Make sure to wire every floor
Or you don't get to go to war
Clunkity-clunk (don't talk bunk)

Now find some new technology
To show fake airplanes on TV
Fake phone calls too, 'cause that would be
Propitious to our policy
Clunkity-clunk (don't talk bunk)

Now get down to the Pentagon,
And plant those light poles on the lawn
They won't see where the plane has gone
So tell the press it crashed head-on
Clunkity-clunk (don't talk bunk)

Clunkity-clunk, Clunkity-clunk
Clunkity-clunk, Clunkity-clunk
Clunkity-clunk, Clunkity-clunk
Clunkity-clunk, Clunkity-clunk

Respectfully,
Myriad

Wow! Unintelligent and uncreative. Way to go!
 
So when does the NWO CD come out?

Perhaps we could get our NY folk out on the street with NWO T-Shirts, CDs, and copies of Screw Loose Change and Screw 9/11 Mysteries on DVD. ;)
 
I think this is a melancholic song...




Troof Oddity


Planet Earth to Troofer Boy
Planet Earth to Troofer Boy
Drop your happy pills and take your tinfoil off

Planet Earth to Troofer Boy
Commencing crackdown, turn brain on
Check reception and may our love be with you

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, crackdown

This is Planet Earth to Troofer Boy
You should really make this step
And the Loosers want to know for who you care
Now it's time to leave the movement if you dare

This is Troofer Boy to Planet Earth
I'm leaving the frontdoor
And I'm breathing in a most peculiar way
And the air smells so refreshing today

For here
Am I sitting in a basement
Far beneath the world
The government is bad
And I think I have been had

Though I'm past one hundred thousand claims
I'm feeling very lame
But I think my movement knows which way to go
Tell my mum I love her very much, she knows

Planet Earth to Troofer Boy
Your brain's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Troofer Boy?
Can you hear me, Troofer Boy?
Can you hear me, Troofer Boy?
Can you hear....

Here am I sitting with my tin foil
The basement of my mum
The government is bad
And I think I have been had

Ya'll are brilliant, I tell you!!

I'm having to hold in my laughter so my coworkers don't know what I'm wasting valuable work time looking at. :D I'm sneaky.
 
Stuck In The Middle

Well I'm searching om the youtube tonight,
I see a video where something ain't right,
It's so obvious I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering who I'll tell that will care,
Bermas to the left of me,
Korey to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
So I make a movie then a part two,
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Thanks to Google, I'm all over the place,

Bermas to the left of me,
Korey to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well I started out with nothing,
And I'm proud that I'm a self made man,
And my fans, they all come crawlin,
Slap me on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....

(release the final cut)

Trying to make some sense of floor plans,
But I can see that they make no sense at all,
Is it cool to leave these shirts at the door,
'Cause I don't think that I can sell anymore
Bermas to the left of me, Korey to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well I started out with nothing,
And I'm proud that I'm a self made man,
And my fans, they all come crawlin,
Slap me on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....

(release the FINAL CUT!!!

Well I don't know where they all are tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
tens of thousands should be showing their face,
But they've all vanished, gone with no trace ,
Bermas to the left of me,
Korey to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you,
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
Stuck in the middle with you.



I will actually record this if someone will sing it
 
A Day In The CT Life

I dread the Jews today, oh boy
Because I know I'll never make the grade
And though the Jews make me so mad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw a photograph
Of thousands dying in a fire
In a movie that was called Loose Change
A crowd of Truthers sat and stared
They'd seen it all before
Now I guess that I'm not sure of anything beyond my door...

I pwned a shill today oh boy
Told him how he loves George Bush's war
A crowd of JERFers turned away
but I just LOL'D a lot
At least I'm not a 'bot

I'd love to learn to con...

Woke up, fell out of bed,
pulled a bong and lost my head
Found my way upstairs and dropped a tab,
And looking up I noticed I was great
Found my coke and kicked my cat
made a post in seconds flat
found my way downstairs and had a smoke,
Avery spoke and I went into a dream....

I dread the Jews today oh boy
Four thousand stayed away from work that day
And though the Jews were all at home
I had to count them all
Now I know how many Jews it takes to fill a trading floor...

I'd love to learn to con...

Apologies to the Beatles. (Especially the dead ones)
