SAGA Does Music/Musica

So, sadly, a recent sketch that Sumukh and myself had planned on debuting today will not be existing anytime soon. Through some minor technical mistakes on me and Sumukh's ends, we have lost a good chunk of the footage. While we may try and re-record it and get the sketch out in the future, we will probably just try and move forward with new content. But not all is lost! Some of the footage was spared, and is what lead me to the idea of this post. It's like they say, when life takes your lemons, make a smaller, but equally delicious batch of lemonade.

The sketch, in short, involved me leaving SAGA in search of fame and fortune as a musician who performed TV theme songs. At one point in the sketch, Sumukh asks me how the career switch is going and I mention that one song has caught on. This was that song:



This also made me think of another (previously unreleased!) example of SAGA venturing into the music world. Months ago, for a Monday Night Live sketch show in C-Bus, there was a sketch that imagined the Chilean Miners who were trapped in the mine for 69 days (remember that?). It imagined the miners taking on a dynamic to kids trapped in detention and took many cues from a famous teen movie. I made this song to use as the sketch closed out:



Thanks for listening to SAGA's contributions/abominations to music!
