So I have been poking around the Filker website, because I wanted to upload the two new songs. Both of them are now up there. And after discussing it with Gretchen, I have now transposed "The Time Travel Cafe" from the key of C to the key of G, which moves it into a more comfortable section of my range. I love it when a conservative transposition works properly.

While poking around the website, I discovered that the alphabetical song list had two links to "The Candy Tree" and none to "Challenge". That is now fixed. I must have messed it up when editing the list at some point.

More disturbingly, I have discovered that "Time After Time", which I wrote in 2015 and have been carrying around in my songbook all of this time, was missing the last line of the second verse. This was true of the original WordPerfect document that I printed for my old paper songbook. It was also true of both the HTML and PDF versions posted on the website. I understand how I might have missed this on the website. The fact that I've been *singing* the song for years from that paper lyric sheet and hadn't noticed perplexes me.

It's a mystery.

Reminds me of the closing lines of Tom Smith's "Spoiler Alert": "I want to be friends, So I won't tell you how this song..."
