Public Domain Day Special - Steamboat Willie (Remix) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2024-01-01 | THE BOAT RAT IS OURSThis isn't the big project I was working on, that's still in progress. But to celebrate one of my favorite holidays(Public Domain Day), I whipped up this little track. I actually hadn't seen the full short until a few days before making it and I gotta say, what a great way to introduce a beloved character! And now that short is OURS to do whatever we want with it! That's both exciting and terrifying!Edit: This actually got flagged by content ID because they claimed I was using the version from Toontown LMAO

Nena - 99 Luftballons (Remix) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2024-02-03 | Hey all! It's been a bit slow this past month due to life stuff and lack of motivation but I'm still working on music when I can.I can't stop listening to this song and you know I had to remix it! I also noticed I reached over 40 subscribers which is awesome! Thank you!
Breakfast at Tiffanys - Moon River (Cover) REMASTERED Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-11-07 | This is a higher quality, remastered, rerecorded version of my cover of Moon River I made back in 2021. This was always one of my favorite covers so I wanted there to be a better version of it. This was supposed to be uploaded way sooner but for some reason it got deleted in the queue so I had to reupload it. In other news, I'm working on kind of a big project rn. It's not as big as the Carpenters project, but it will be treading new ground as it's going to have an actual music video as well as voice clips all throughout the song. I won't say too much other than it's going to be... looney. That may take some time so hang on tight.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
Veggietales - The Pirates Who Dont Do Anything (Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-10-03 | I don't normally do songs from religious media, but I'll make an exception for Veggietales because 1. nostalgia and 2. the songs slap.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor

All Star by Smash Mouth but its sung by Sans Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-09-16 | Made this as a tribute. It's a little sloppy but I didn't have a lot of time. Sounds kind of menacing which kinda fits since it's Sans lol.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor

Bastille - Pompeii (Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-07-29 | Oh, where do we begin? The rubble or our sins?I heard this song at work again and wanted to cover it.

I attempted Mine but I didn't get it to sound right so that one will have to wait.Speak Now is an important album to me. I was in middle school and it was the era I became a huge Taylor fan. My first major concert was the one for her Speak Now Tour in Foxboro, MA(the one where it rained). Ah the memories...Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
Queen - Dont Stop Me Now (Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-06-17 | This one was really fun because I tried a new feature. You'll hear it twice sometime in the song. I used a lot of bisexual pride colors in this video. Freddie Mercury himself was part of the LGBTQ community but never revealed what he identified as exactly(times were different back then) but I like to think of this song as sort of a bi anthem due to the lyrics "make a supersonic man out of you/woman of you". rd.com/article/lgbtq-charitiesSupport me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
Lady Gaga - Born This Way (1980s Style Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-06-17 | TW: Bright rapid moving colorsA staple of any Pride celebration, we gotta have Lady Gaga's Born This Way! I sort of ended up 80sifying it(how can I not???). I also thought of a cool concept where later in the song, more flags start appearing in waves. rd.com/article/lgbtq-charitiesSupport me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
Meet Me In St Louis - The Trolley Song(Dance Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-06-10 | Another Judy Garland song, this time from Meet Me In St. Louis! This is such a fun song and I decided to do my own little dance remix of it! This one was hard though, I had to get three different versions of the sheet music because they all had only one part of the song and I wanted to do the whole thing. rd.com/article/lgbtq-charitiesko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
The Wizard of Oz - Over the Rainbow(Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-06-10 | Today is a special day, it's Judy Garland's 101st birthday!

Her most famous song is, coincidentally, Over The Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz, a movie I was obsessed with as a kid.

The Little Mermaid - Under the Sea (Cover) Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-06-02 | Happy Pride Month! Here's my cover of Under The Sea. The Little Mermaid was my favorite Disney movie when I was a kid and I figured since the live action remake just came out I'd cover a song from it(I've already done Part of Your World a couple years ago but I wasn't quite happy with that one so I might redo it idk). I haven't seen the live action yet, I've seen mixed opinions but I heard Halle Bailey was really good as Ariel. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor

28 Days of Carpenters: Day 28 - Benediction Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-28 | Well, here it is, the end of the road. Thank you for watching all 28 days of this project. The month went by pretty fast, and this project really made me get back into digital music. Will I do something like this again? Maybe... next year is a leap year after all so maybe I can do another 29 in 2024. I have a ton of Carpenters sheet music including plenty of songs that I didn't cover this year. So we'll see what happens. Once again, thank you for watching and thank you Carpenters for making such good music.ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorUnto you in the voice of love, through the song we sing: an offering...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 27 - Nowadays Clancy Cant Even Sing Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-27 | I cannot believe the penultimate song of the month is finally here. This is the only song in the entire project, or the first track I've ever posted, to contain only one instrument: a honky tonk piano from the Super Mario All Stars soundfont. No percussion, no fancy synths, just one 16 bit piano. I figured it would be fitting as this is the song you would hear when getting ready to leave. The show's almost over, with one more short song to go: Benediction.ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorWho's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 26 - Eve Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-26 | I think this and Your Wonderful Parade are my favorite songs on the album. Eve is a wonderfully beautiful song with a strange story and I'm surprised it wasn't a single. At least it got a remaster, though. This was actually my second attempt, the first one didn't do it justice. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorEve, you are a rose among the thorns here...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 25 - All I Can Do Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-25 | Oof. This one was really hard to cover. The main reason? My arch nemesis: the 5/4 time signature. I don't like 5/4 and it's not something I'm used to. I know the song is supposed to sound chaotic so I guess it works in its favor but jeez this was hard to make sound right and tbh I don't think I fully grasped it. I think I'm gonna try to avoid 5/4 songs, and luckily I don't think there's another Carpenters song with that time sig(thank goodness).Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorEvery road that I follow leads me with no tomorrow...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 24 - Whats the Use Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-24 | What a mood this song is! I chose a silly sound for this number. We only have four more songs left believe it or not! This one used the VINTAGE(all caps) soundfont again and tbh I think it's becoming a staple of mine because I've been using it a lot. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorI've got plenty of mountains I'm lookin' to find
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 23 - Dont Be Afraid Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-23 | Don't be afraid to jam out to this rendition of what's probably one of the most 60siest sounding songs on the album. I used a font that's supposed to be the Game Boy Advance soundfont but it sounds a little too HQ so idk. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorLiving is what we all were put on this Earth to do...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 22 - Ticket to Ride Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-22 | Feelin' 22-oohoooo! Here we have the first song the Carpenters ever put out, a sad ballad version of the Beatles' Ticket to Ride(not sure if it's a controversial opinion or not but I think the Carpenters version is miles better than the original). This one was a bit weird because it ended up sounding a bit odd/uncanny. I don't know how to describe it but it feels... cold in a way.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorI think I'm gonna be sad, I think it's today...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 21 - Turn Away Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-21 | One week left? Time for another rock cover. I had a few troubles with this one and I didn't really know how it would sound in the end but somehow I managed to combine an 8 bit video game, a day at ye olde horse races, and a rock concert. The guitar in the very beginning is from Juicestain's Soundfont. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorWould you change your mind and see things my way or are you afraid that I'll bring you down?...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 20 - All of My Life Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-20 | This is such a cute song! I wasn't sure how to end it though but I think I made it work. Not much else to say but it's crazy that we're already on song 20! Where did the time go?Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorAll of my life I have been waiting for just one boy...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 19 - Get Together Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-19 | It sounds like boss fight time! I made this with the Undertale soundfont. The chorus was originally an octave higher but I thought it sounded too funny so I lowered it.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorLove is but the song we sing, fear's the way we die...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 18 - Someday Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-18 | So this one was a bit difficult because of it's grand nature, but I managed to make it work by toning it down and putting my own spin on it. For some reason I always imagine this song being sung on a beach by a woman who wants to see her forbidden lover again. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorAll I can offer is someday...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 17 - Your Wonderful Parade Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-17 | Your Wonderful Parade is probably one of my favorite songs at the moment. I don't know what it is about it but I just love it! It's so happy and cheery despite the depressing lyrics. It was my most listened to song on Apple Music in 2022 which is impressive, because I didn't hear it for the first time until August of that year! I wanted to do the song justice so I decided to do a rock cover. I added some stock sounds of a crowd as a nod to the original.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorBlindness is a part of every game you play...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 16 - Invocation Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-16 | It's time for the second half of the month! Starting now we'll be focusing on their underrated first album. I kept the church vibes the original song had but this time I put my own spin on it with an organ and choir. Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorNothing can impair the perfect love I bring in a simple offering...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 15 - A Song For You Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-15 | Give it up for Day 15! For some reason I always imagine this song being sung at like a lounge or bar or something so I gave the song a sort of lowkey jazzy almost kind of sultry sound with a saxophone. This is the final part of the "Greatest Hits" portion of the month. Starting tomorrow, I will be posting songs from their first album, Offering/Ticket to Ride!Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorI love you in a place where there's no space or time...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 14 - I Need To Be In Love Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-14 | Happy Valentine's Day! Here's a song perfect for the holiday. I really like this song and I wanted to make it sound more magical so here were are back again with the electric pianos! I can't believe we're already halfway through the month!Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorI know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world, and fool enough to think that's what I'll find...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 13 - Mr. Guder Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-13 | This is probably one of the more experimental ones. It's meant to sound like an old PC game and I used the Windows Default soundfont. The intro was originally going to be longer but I didn't think it sounded right.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorYou've blown your life just playing a game... where no one wins but everyone stays the same
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 12 - Sing Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-12 | I think this has to be one of my favorite covers! I used the Super Mario 64 soundfont and I can't think of a better fitting song! Or a better fitting image. I had so much fun making this one and I'm glad it's out in the world because I couldn't stop listening to it!Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorSing... sing a song... let the world sing a long
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 11 - Please Mr. Postman Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-11 | In 1975, the Carpenters released a cover of the Marvelette's Please Mr. Postman and it became their final number 1 hit that year. And for a good reason: it's a catchy song! This one turned out to be pretty fun. I made it with a soundfont called Retro Synth PC which is the same one I used for my Barbie Girl cover. I also tried a new technique for the outro where the song takes itself apart layer by layer.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorWhy's it taking such a long time for me to hear from that boy of mine?
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 10 - Goodbye to Love Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-10 | This one has a backstory behind it. I originally had a different version made using the Sega Genesis soundfont and it sound a lot more subdued but I realized it didn't do the song justice so I changed it up a bit(more like a lot) and ended up with this completely different sounding version. This time I used a mix of default and another soundfont called VINTAGE(yes it's in all caps). So now I have this rockish sounding cover and it won't be the last rock version you'll hear!Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorI'll say goodbye to love...
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 9 - Maybe its You Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-09 | Day 9! I don't have much to say about this one, it's not one of my favorite covers but it still sounds nice and calm. I think I really like electric pianos because this isn't the only song that uses them lol.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylorCouldn't we stay, or must you go?
28 Days of Carpenters: Day 8 - Love Is Surrender Judy Emms Toy Radio 2023-02-08 | You must surrender if you care...Here we are with Day 8! This is an interesting one. For some reason this song reminds me of period dramas and I always picture in my mind old timey situations like princesses and pirates and knights and swordfighting and stuff so I decided to give this song an old timey theme! I also added an extra verse that wasn't in the Carpenters version but was in the original song and in the sheet music I had. The song's too short imo so I wanted my version to have it back.Support me: ko-fi.com/judyemmtaylor
