Rebecca Pittenger's Podcast of Weird Songs

This is a song about an abusive relationship I was in a while back. As you can probably tell from the song...it was bad. I mean, it wasn't physically abusive; it was one o' those psychologically abusive relationships that really f****s you up.

This is another song that came from a dream. This one's about it being Sunday (like it is today) and wanting some escapism from the fact that Monday's coming up. In this case, the narrator wants to escape by immersing herself in music. And smoking pot.

Here's the next song in the possession album. It's where the me-character tries to determine what part of her is missing. The bears remind her of the baby part of her that's mentioned in the song, "Such a Beautiful Child," from 2/12/21.

I recorded a short version of this song a while back and didn't think I was gonna do anything with it. Then it grew on me (like a tree grows - ha ha, no pun intended). It's about how, when you think about it, all of our existences depend on millions and millions of things having happened over the course of time, in order to set the course of events in motion that determine our existences. Oh geez, writing that out, it makes me think, "that doesn't sound like a very catchy number." But, here it is.

Here's another weird little impulsively recorded song. I was thinkin' about how to sing as if I was a drunk person, and that's where the first part came from. The second part was of an idea I'm toying around with for a future song. And the third part is a merging of the first and second parts.

Okay, yeah, I sorta self-plagiarized myself, cuz the theme o' this song sounds a lot like last night's. But I wanted to 'speriment with pitch correction. Here's my pitch correction experiment!

This is the next song in the possession album. The girl/me-character and the fire god wanna figure out why he's stuck to her. Then the bears tell them it's because the girl's soul is missing a part of it, and the resultant void created a vacuum, vacuum that sucks the fire god in and makes them all stuck together.

This is a song that came from another dream; the dream-part was "stuck inside Miss Caroliner." That presented a challenge, as in, what's the rest of the song about? The song decided to be about a witchy person who swallows other people whole. Now, the narrator of the song is stuck inside this person, along with a lot of other people. Oh, no!

This is a song I did impulsively. It's good for if you're in the mood to listen to fucked up shit. It's a song about Life Cereal. I dunno if they even make it anymore.

After I recorded the most annoying song in the world yesterday, I decided to flesh it out and add some verses and a rap to it. See, yesterday's song was done with the intention of having some horrible thing that repeats over and over, so I could potentially use it to annoy people. It's a song where, on infinite repeat mode, it would be extra special annoying because you have an infinitely repetitive song that repeats itself over and over! After listening to yesterday's version of it, I realized, wait, I kinda want to see what would happen if I made it into a regular song with A and B phrases, and all that jazz. So, here it is!
