Yesterday I finished recording all the songs for the new CD "Super Superhero Songs". The song my daughter and I wrote "A Guy Named Stan" came out AWESOME! I have included it at the bottom of this post. I also made a change on the CD cover, as I added a remix of a classic Mr. Billy song from a decade ago called "Super Monkey" (which is also at the bottom of the post). I felt that since we were all superheros on the cover I should add Super Monkey too! Can you see him up above?
I am doing the final mixing, mastering and graphic design over the weekend while I'm on the road with Wil.
I was going to take a break but I only have 31 days to do 36 new songs, so I'm starting the next project today. It's called "Sensational Songs About Science...Fiction?" Like the title?
As I'm getting nearer the end of this project I would really appreciate you blogging, posting on your FaceBook/Twitter, sending a note to any music writers/newspapers etc. It would be cool to let a ton of people in on this race to the finish...
Anyway, thanks for all the love and support pouring in, here are the new songs, hope you dig 'em!
I am sitting in my studio at 8 am. I have already done my Podcast and Short Silly Song of the Day and now I'm getting ready to record the LAST song of CD #9. I wrote this one last night with my 13 year old drumming daughter Taelor. We had a great time I had my guitar and iPad and she had a laptop.
She looked up stuff on the Internet and we bounced ideas off each other. We came up with a song about Marvel Comics mega-man Stan Lee. Here are the lyrics (it took about an hour or two to get it done):

A GUY NAMED STAN
By Taelor Grisack and Wialliam Charles Grisack III
Can you imagine a world without the Avengers
Can you imagine a wold without Spider-man
Can you imagine a wold with the god of thunder
Can you imagine a world without a guy named Stan?
Can you imagine a world without Tony Stark
Can you imagine a world without his Iron Man
Can you imagine a world without Captain Marvel
Can you imagine a world without a guy named Stan?
Can you imagine a world without Magneto
Can you imagine a world without Titanium Man
Can you imagine a world without the Human Tourch
Can you imagine a world without a guy named Stan?
What if there was no Fantastic Four
What if there was no Giant Man
What if there was no, no, no, no X-Men
What if there was no guy named Stan
Stan Lee, there has to be a Stan Lee
Or we would not be happy in this universe
Stan Lee, there has to be a Stan Lee
Or maybe two or three in the multi-verse
What would the heroes do without the villains
What would the heroes do without a plan
What would the heroes do without the sidekicks
What would the heroes do without a guy named Stan
Their creator is a marvel
With a most fantastic hand
Their creator humble Mr. Lee
Is just a guy named Stan
