2026 50/90 Challenge Day 44/90

I got a nice chunk of work done on day 44. Maybe not quite as much as I had hoped, but good progress none the less.

I started the day with seven songs needing work. Three were ready for vocals and four were ready for lyrics. I ended up working on five of them. First I recorded the three songs worth of vocals. Next I wrote the lyrics and the melodies and recorded the vocals for two others. See my previous post for a hint at maybe why I didn’t get into the sixth or seventh songs (the unofficial term for gastric bypass folks is “the foamies” and I gave it to myself pretty bad because I was less than careful while eating lunch).

Later on I revisited all five of those songs by adding lead guitars to all of them. I now still have two songs waiting for lyrics, but five songs ready to mix and declare officially complete. Like I said, good progress.

  1. What a productive Day 44! 🎶 Five songs worked on, vocals recorded, lyrics and melodies created, and lead guitars added—that is genuinely impressive progress, especially while dealing with an uncomfortable setback along the way.

    I really admire the honesty with which you share both the creative highs and the not-so-great moments. That makes the journey feel real. The fact that you kept going, revisited the five songs, and brought them to the “ready to mix” stage shows remarkable persistence.
