Ditty A Day

Ditty a Day #24: Depeche Mode Fan

Sorry for the skipped day yesterday – it’ll pay off at the end of this week, hopefully! Anyway, this week’s ditty’s are settings of the always-enlightening Missed Connections section of Craigslist. First up, a short cop-out ditty, care of this posting!

Maybe I Have a Future

I’m away for the day, so sadly, there’s no ditty. So instead, I give you Paul and Storm, two men who every day give me hope that there is a market for the silly things I do. They basically get paid to perform fake jingles live!

Ditty a Day #23: Camden

I imagine that the Tourism Committee for Camden, New Jersey has a tough job on their hands. So I’ve decided to help them out, by offering this catchy tune they can use for their radio and TV spots.

Ditty a Day #22: It’s Bread

Another silly product jingle: this one’s for bread!

Ditty a Day #21: Taxi

This was inspired by my friend Bonnie, who was recently hit by a taxi in New York. She’s on lots of pain killers that make her say silly things, so she asked me to write a song about it.

Ditty a Day #20: Side Effects May Include

Ak! I’m late on this one! It may not technically be Monday, but here is Monday’s ditty, nonetheless.  This kicks off product jingle week here at Ditty a Day, and this idea is thanks to @lesisputnik! Let me know in the comments if you have any silly product jingle requests.

Ditty a Day #19: The Lost Chord

Just made it by the skin of my teeth today! Anyway, on this day in 1888, a press conference in London featured the first phonograph recording to be heard in England: “The Lost Chord,” by Arthur Sullivan, recorded by Thomas Edison. This is that recording, gone all 21st-century. They didn’t use click tracks back then…

Ditty a Day #18: Castro Party

Today is Fidel Castro’s birthday, apparently.
