A work recording of an original song from about eleven years ago. As I mentioned at the time, I think I was trying to be the local Mose Allison. Once again apologies for the lousy production. The MIDI horns are kinda cute though.

  I'm Mister Popularity
  Everybody wants to be me
  In the movies, on TV
  I'm your prime-time personality

I got a smile like gleaming ivory
I wear contact-colored eyes
In my physical dimensions
I'm perfect for a man my size

  (Perfect for!) Mister Popularity
  The sociable celebrity
  Easy-going as can be
  Easier than 1-2-3

I got a million friends on my Facepage
I got fans all around the globe
I am thoroughly connected
To everybody between the poles

  (They're connected to!) Mister Popularity
  A paragon of propriety
  Beloved by all on land and sea
  Everywhere they all want me

I'm always in the news, man
Living large and fat
Like a drummer in a blues band
Now tell me how you gonna top that ?

  (You can't top!) Mister Popularity
  He's the sexy singularity
  Got networked capabilities
  He's the shiznitz, he's the bees knees
 
Then I see myself on the billboard
And I wonder who is that man 
Cause with my virtual personae
I never know who I am

  Hey I'm Mister Popularity !
  Your hot pop personality
  In the movies, on TV
  Everybody wants to be me

Mister Popularity,
Everybody wants to be me
