made-up words? that's practically half my discog!

i'll certainly be adding some songs here :)

@roblyon5150 1d

Ah! Camarillo Brillo. I do this all the time. I'll definitely add to this one.

@deandra 1d

Fun stuff for a retired SLP!

@aflinner 1d

Good one!

@smudge 1d

Excellent idea!

@spinhead 1d

weekly? we're back to weekly challenges again? great googlymooglies, guess who's gonna do a song for each, and a song for all . . .

@itoarazi 1d

Finally! My love of portmanteaus will come in handy!

@gemhart 1d

anyone have made up words to share?

@abihercules 1d

Great fun - I love gobbledeegook. I wrote one this evening. I've done the track, will lay down the vocals in the morning and upload it. Thanks for the challenge! #week1songchallenge

@hmstreetteam 1d

I did one of these a few months ago with the word “noitation.”

@excessivemachine 1d

I had a song years ago that included the phrases "portle of pipes" and "gordle of windows," referring to clanking radiator pipes and window frames rattling in the wind in an old house.

Despite several people telling me they like the song, no one has ever asked what those words mean.

@excessivemachine 1d

@itoarazi - I spent a week in Port Manteau once!

@innerspear 1d

Can the made up word be just the title or must it be used in the song?

@momentegalerie 1d

Funny I started a new thread in my phone notes with the title of 'Wortkreationen (word-creations like 'Krassette' (a really krass/good cassette) and 'lonelylogue' (instead of monologue)

@markblevis 20h

I thought "gymanstician" was something I made up when I threw it into a song, yesterday. I just did a Google search and found out it's not so original. Back to the drawing board. :)
