Subscribe to iTom: Tom Smith's Song A Week
The idea is simple: Every week, Tom publishes a brand-new, never-before heard song. You can download it free by subscribing to his RSS feed, using any of these services:
Or, if you're on LiveJournal, simply Friend the RSS Feed itom_songs.
The free version of a song will be available until the next song is published. You can also buy a higher-quality MP3 of the song for 99¢. Every few months, the songs will be collected into a downloadable album (somewhat cheaper than buying the songs individually). Or, if you're feeling truly generous, you can make a general donation through PayPal.

NEW! iTom 4.0:
Smith and Legend
|
Before science, people explained how the world works with myth -- the sun was Apollo's chariot wheel,thunder was the dwarves bowling, Dick Cheney was the offspring of a cockatrice and Elmer Fudd, that sort of thing. Time marches on, but we still have legends and superstitions and weird beliefs of all stripes... and several of them got in Tom's face, or vice-versa, in new and interesting ways. From warning labels to Wikipedia, from sidekicks to space opera, and including two zombie apocalypses (apocalypsi?), Tom once again brings the weird, the wacky, and the occasionally poignant. The bonus track is a rockin' cover of Leslie Fish's seminal space anthem, "Hope Eyrie".

iTom 3.0: True
Love Waits
|
Love permeates our existences, in more forms than we can easily count. Still, count on Tom to find some of the more bizarre permutations. From fake Hallmark holidays to real religious movements, from sex droids to sexual identity crises, from battlefield passion to Renter's Rage, the third iTom collection has thirteen tracks covering love, sex, and romance from a unique point of view. Also included is a bonus track, "March of the PenguiCon", written for the popular Michigan science fiction convention and open-source expo.

iTom 2.0: Transitions
|
The second iTom collection is complete! A crazed and eclectic mix of brand-new songs, mostly on the subject of change and transition -- from being awake to being asleep, from Republican control of Congress to Democratic, from your S.O. leaving to your self-image leaving, from how much you want to grow up to how much you want to stay a child. Also included is a bonus track, "An Ecclesiastes For Rose", that you can't get anywhere else!

iTom 1.0: And
So It Begins
|
Funny thing -- you do a song a week for three months, and suddenly you've got enough for a whole new album! The iTom songs released during Aug.-Oct. 2006 are collected here in high-quality 192 Kbps MP3s, along with all the lyrics and a spiffy HTML interface.
