Silly Songs with Squad

My friends Lauren and Maddie joined in to help keep the beat by playing the tops of a couple of pots with some spoons at YL club this week. IT WAS DELIGHTFUL.

It seems like even though I always practice for the entire week beforehand, there's always something that distracts me when I'm playing in front of kids and causes me to miss a chord, or more. It could be the unnecessary sunglasses, the hilariously mistimed clanging pans, the small print, or really anything else I suppose.

I guess I really don't care, unless the kids don't like it. My philosophy remains:

Look like a fool in front of the kids, if it will contribute to their self-confidence or help them feel like they fit in and belong.

Anyway, it was fun and I found this song in the bumper music on the "Free Beer and Hot Wings Show." It's a really good song. Pretty old. From a British band.

"Airplane Song" by 'the Royal Guardsmen':


Unrelated, but this was the first time I ever just sat down and recorded something that I was ~happy with in the first take.

Party in the U.S.A. in the style of James Earl Jones

An unlikely title at best.

I was going to do PITUSA by Miley Cyrus on my ukulele for YL club during "Silly Songs with Steve" on Monday. I'm still going to. Last week however, two of my friends (both named Maddie) were talking in deep voices rather hilariously, and that got me thinking about how I might make this song sillier.

Enjoy? That may be impossible. Either way, here it is:

In prep for a skit during club in a few weeks I was practicing and revising the chords/words of Jon Cozart's 'After Ever After.'

This is that:



Expect more silly songs to come (and be included in my 'Swear with your Friends' album). No swearing plx.
