i'll certainly be adding some songs here :)

@roblyon5150 2w

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

@deandra 2w

Fun stuff for a retired SLP!

@aflinner 2w

Good one!

@smudge 2w

Excellent idea!

@spinhead 2w

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 2w

Finally! My love of portmanteaus will come in handy!

@gemhart 2w

anyone have made up words to share?

@abihercules 2w

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 2w

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

@excessivemachine 2w

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 2w

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

@innerspear 2w

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

@momentegalerie 2w

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 2w

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. :)

I saw this challenge and pretty quickly wrote a song. Not just a nonsense word, but a bunch of them, and kind of a nonsense story to go with it. Then it took me way, way too long to produce it.

Here are the nonsense words (some might be real, but probably not in this context). Song is called "Parking Garage":
