Brief Respite was amusing… but Bad Dog is just plain genius!

Brief Respite… brief, but funny.
I really like how you mix up styles and intentions.

Whoa Matty– get out of my head! The opening notes are ripped off from Pachelbel’s Canon in D. I think that commercial is way older than ten years though… I’m thinking twenty or twenty-five. A few days back I had the proverbial “light bulb moment” about a personal issue, and I literally thought “Gee, it’s like a light bulb clicked on” and then in my literality remembered that commercial. I think it played forever when I was a kid and was the first time I’d heard Pachelbel’s Canon.
So that was the launch point for the piece. In some ways it’s a break through because I usually sit on something for a very long tiiime before posting.
Not that I’m comparing this little thing to Pachelbel, by any stretch of the imagination.

OK, so maybe there’s no joke in the “I’ve never met you” song, but in the “light bulb” song is the title a reference to the famous piece (don’t know what it was, but I know it’s famous) used in the GE light bulb commercial from many years (like maybe 10) back?
If not, then what’s up with the name?
Your ever-loving-and-hopelessly-devoted friend,

No, there isn’t any musical reference in “I’ve Never Met You.” But that doesn’t mean I’m getting serious. It means that sometimes things just aren’t funny.

Dave, “I’ve Never Met You…” is really beautiful!
“Booty Call” is pretty too, but it still has the jokey title and orgasmic ending, so there’s still some humor to it.
But “I’ve Never Met You” is just, well, pretty. Yet sad. Which is not a bad thing, but you’re not getting all serious on us are you?
Did I miss a joke in there? Is there some clever hidden reference that I would have gotten if I knew nmore about music?

As much as I love the ending of Elegy, I just want it to keep going on, getting more layered, for several minutes.
Booty Call is a great name for that piece, and it sounds like something that belongs as the backtrack to a nature travelogue. *lol* Very nice, actually, and it shows off your versatility.
