I wroted a SONG.

[batyatoon]

She didn't know she could do that. But she did.

*stares at self*

Started it on the plane on the way back from OVFF, continued it once we got home, finished it last night. I've got a working tune, which I have the unsettling feeling is stolen from something else that I can't remember. I've got three verses and a wordless-vocals chorus and a bridge, and I think either the bridge needs to be longer or I need a fourth verse.

But. Dude. I wrote a song. This is so weird.


[Also, just to keep y'all informed: I am home sick today with mild fever and vomiting. But that's not what I came to tell you about!]


Am putting the lyrics up under my brand new Fellow Filkers filter. If you want to be added to it, sing out! (No pun intended.)

Won't you add me to your filter,
Won't you add me to your filter,
Won't you add me to your filter,
So I can read your songs?

[batyatoon]

Mine eyes have seen the filter of the journal of the Toon...

*eyes it dubiously*

Nevermind.

Hey Batya,

I'd love to be on the filter. New songs are always a goodness.

...She is trampling on our sanity, we'll all be broken soon
She makes such funny faces entertaining the whole room
Her filks are marching on...

[mneme]

V. cool.

I like the lyrics, too. Wanna hear it.

What was the song you mentioned at OVFF, anways?

[redaxe.livejournal.com]

<-- Wants to be a Filk Fellow, but hasn't fulfilled the prerequisites. Oh, well, maybe I can place out... :-)

[batyatoon]

The one I wanted your help on for performing in circle? That was "Bazaar Day Ballad." Will call you about it sometime.

[victorthecook.livejournal.com]

Memememe! Do I have to take the Test of Fear first? Or will my 'got filk' sticker qualify?

Also -- get well promptly. This is the worst con I've seen for people coming down sick afterwards.

[catalana.livejournal.com]

Please add me to your filter! Please please please!

[cleverthylacine]

Room for a little one?

[jonbaker.livejournal.com]

Toras hashem temimah, toras hashem temimah, toras hashem, temimah, meshivas nofesh!

Well, that was the singing yesterday.

Oi!

[batyatoon]

*hugs* And since I didn't get to tell you in person: Mazal tov!

[tinuviel8994.livejournal.com]

Add me! Add me!

♥

[gimmeahand.livejournal.com]

How fine is this filter? May I pass through the sieve?

[tibicina.livejournal.com]

Could I be added, too. Pretty please?

[sweetmusic-27.livejournal.com]

*bounces* Mi re do re mi-mi-mi!

[gnomi.livejournal.com]

Feel better soon!

[batyatoon]

Um, possibly?

Only I'm not sure who you are. o.O

[stakebait.livejournal.com]

Feel better! And yay, song!

I've been noodling with a song idea since leaving the con, but all I've got is two lines of the chorus.

Cool songwriting talents.

[jimmyknocker.livejournal.com]

Maybe for your next trick, you can reunite the Dreamer Clan?

*GKJD*
(Hrmmm?)

[maedbh7.livejournal.com]

If you're willing to have me on it, I'm happy to be a part of your filk filter. *hug* -H...

[batyatoon]

I think you're on it already. :)

[jerusha.livejournal.com]

I'd like to be on the filter, please. (Although I tend to be reading several days late...)

[peteralway.livejournal.com]

got a working tune, which I have the unsettling feeling is stolen from something else that I can't remember.

That unsettling feeling is common. I have it all the time. Of course it's possible that every one of my melodies is actually stolen. There is a fine line between creativity and a bad memory.

If I'm a fellow enough filker, I'd be honored to be on the fellow filker filter as well
