The poetry of Stephen Crane is in the public domain…
I wonder if it would make good doo-wop music…
I’m gonna find out!
Yes, the answer is yes — Stephen Crane poems convert beautifully into doo-wop songs.
They’re so brilliantly wrong. I have to suspect that someone who would write poems like that would hate this use of those poems. But I love them.
And that’s the beauty of the public domain.
I’ve got nine tracks with six more planned, and I think this gonna be a killer album… you know… for anyone who wants to experience the poetry of Stephen Crane as doo-wop.
No one else? Just me?
Eh, that’s fine. I’ll listen to it until I have it memorized and love every second.
It’s out now, in all its glorious wrongness! A true abomination of art — THE DOO-WOP OF STEPHEN CRANE.
That’s right. I took Stephen Crane poems, converted them into doo-wop songs, and now you can listen to them in all their catchy irony.
