Remains (song)
"Remains" is a single from Maurissa Tancharoen and Jed Whedon and was released on July 9, 2009. The track was co-written and produced by Maurissa and Jed specifically for inclusion in "Epitaph One," the unaired episode of Joss Whedon's sci-fi television series ''Dollhouse'', which Maurissa and Jed also wrote together. Song information During writing and production of "Epitaph One," the 13th unaired episode of ''Dollhouse'' (the television series for which Tancharoen and Whedon also write), the two writers felt that a piece of music was necessary over the coda of the episode, but due to budget concerns, they were unable to use a famous or popular song at the time. Rather, Tancharoen and Whedon wrote "Remains," which can be heard over the episode's final scenes. However, they wanted the song not to appear too close to the content of the episode lyrically, so as not to distract the viewer with the realization that the song was composed specifically for the episode, despite the lyrics ...

Pop Music
Pop music is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form during the mid-1950s in the United States and the United Kingdom. The terms ''popular music'' and ''pop music'' are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many disparate styles. During the 1950s and 1960s, pop music encompassed rock and roll and the youth-oriented styles it influenced. ''Rock'' and ''pop'' music remained roughly synonymous until the late 1960s, after which ''pop'' became associated with music that was more commercial, ephemeral, and accessible. Although much of the music that appears on record charts is considered to be pop music, the genre is distinguished from chart music. Identifying factors usually include repeated choruses and hooks, short to medium-length songs written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), and rhythms or tempos that can be easily danced to. Much pop music also borrows elements from other styles ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

(Do You Wanna Date My) Avatar
"(Do You Wanna Date My) Avatar" is a 2009 song created and performed by the cast of the web series '' The Guild'', with lead vocals by singer-actress Felicia Day. The lyrics were written by Day and the music was written by musical composer Jed Whedon, who also directed the music video. Background When interviewed at San Diego Comic-Con, Day attributed her inspiration for the song to 1980s and 1990s-style dance music. She conveyed an obsession with Stacey Q's " Two of Hearts" in particular, which is apparent with Day including a familiar ''"come on, come on"'' in the lyrics. The song includes a rap portion performed by ''Guild'' co-stars Jeff Lewis and Sandeep Parikh. While Day composed the lyrics herself, whilst listening to "really bad 1990s dance songs", she turned to screenwriter Jed Whedon (with whom she had worked on internet musical '' Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog'' and TV series ''Dollhouse'') to compose the music. Whedon and his wife Maurissa Tancharoen are credited as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
