Mix: Tyrone Hunnibi (hypothetically)

Medium: Mix
Title: Tyrone Hunnibi (hypothetically)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Sexytalk.
Disclaimer: This is a work of parody. Although reference is made to real persons, the content is the product of the mixer's imagination only.

A mix for Stephen's flamboyant gay partygoing druggie pornstar side. Y'know, if he had one. Which he totally doesn't.

This preview cover is cropped; the whole thing isn't explicit, just slightly racy. (Short shorts, large bulge.) There's a slightly larger version of the artwork here.










1. Steve Azar - Me Till Monday
Four days a week, he has to be Stephen Colbert of The Colbert Report. On the weekend, he's free to become a different person entirely.

"Call it an early weekend, call it going off the deep end; call it what you want, I've made up my mind: I don't have to be me till Monday. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, I ain't gonna face reality. Three days without punching a time clock, three nights of going nonstop: no work and all play. I don't have to be me till Monday."


2. Billy Joel - Only The Good Die Young
Stephen is a good faithful Catholic boy, following the rules in order to be loved by his parents and his God. Tyrone, not so much.

"They say there's a heaven for those who'll wait; some say it's better, but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints—the sinners are much more fun . . . Your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation. She never cared for me, but did she ever say a prayer for me?"


3. Tim McGraw - Real Good Man
Tyrone's not good, not in the least; but there are some things that he's very good at.

"I might have a reckless streak at least a country mile wide; if you're gonna run with me, it's gonna be a wild ride. But when it comes to loving you, I've got velvet hands: I'll show you how a real bad boy can be a real good man."


4. Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman
Sometimes a man just wants to hang out in a sports bra.

"The girls need a break—tonight we're gonna take the chance to get out on the town. We don't need romance; we only wanna dance; we're gonna let our hair hang down. The best thing about being a woman is the prerogative to have a little fun and, oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy—forget I'm a lady—men's shirts, short skirts . . ."


5. RENT - Out Tonight
Dressed and ready to go, Tyrone hits the town, living for the moment and trying to escape his past.

"My body's talking to me—it says, time for danger. It says I wanna commit a crime, wanna be the cause of a fight, wanna put on a tight skirt and flirt with a stranger. I've had a knack from way back for breaking the rules once I learn the games . . . So let's find a bar so dark we forget who we are."


6. Waitresses - I Know What Boys Like
Self-explanatory. Men know what men like!

"I know what boys like; I know what guys want. I see them looking. I make them want me: I like to tease them. They want to touch me; I never let them . . . I know what boys like: boys like, boys like me."


7. Robert Palmer - Addicted To Love (Live)
It's not so much love he's addicted to; it's more cheap sex. (And there was the meth.)

"Your lights are on, but you're not home; your mind is not your own. Your heart sweats, your body shakes . . . You like to think that you're immune to the stuff; it's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough."


8. Foreigner - Hot Blooded
Tyrone on the dance floor.

"I'm hot blooded, check it and see; feel the fever burning inside of me. Come on, baby, do you do more than dance?"


9. Garth Brooks - Standing Outside The Fire
But there's more to Tyrone than cheap hedonism. In fact, he has some virtues that Stephen lacks.

"It's not enough just to stand outside the fire. We call them strong, those who can face this world alone, who seem to get by on their own, those who will never take the fall; we call them weak who are unable to resist the slightest chance love might exist, and for that forsake it all . . . Life is not tried, it is merely survived if you're standing outside the fire."


10. Metric - On The Sly
Stephen and Tyrone seem impossible to reconcile. Stephen wants to be loved by the world, and will repress like crazy to do that. Tyrone, on the other hand:

"I want them to hate me, so you can love me on the sly."


11. Barbara Mandell - If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want To Be Right)
And yet, there's a connection between them. This song is Stephen's self-professed go-to crowd-pleaser.

"Mama and Daddy say it's a shame, it's a downright disgrace. But as long as I've got you by my side, I don't care what people say . . . Am I wrong to fall so deeply in love with you, knowing you've got a wife and two little children depending on you too? Am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch? . . . If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right."


12. RENT - Another Day
At the end of Tyrone's weekend on the town, Stephen angrily reasserts control.

(Lyrics here have been tweaked just a bit.)

TYRONE
"I can't control
My destiny
I trust my soul
My only goal is just to be

There's only now
There's only here
Give in to love
Or live in fear
No other path
No other way
No day but today."
STEPHEN
"Control your sex drive!
He doesn't see . . .
Who says that you have a soul?
Just let me be!

Who do you think you are
Barging in on me and my Report?
Little queer, hey
The door is that way!

The fire's out anyway!"



13. Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins - It Wasn't Me
Stephen denies everything.

"It wasn't me; I wasn't there; that was not my love affair. That is not my lover, that's not even my friend. It wasn't me, I wasn't there; I was stone drunk, it isn't clear; and it doesn't count 'cause I don't care."


The total package

This is really good and it shows different facets of Tyrone's personality, which you rarely get to see. I'm glad you picked "Out Tonight"--I was watching Rent a while ago while trying to match everyone in fake news with a character. I heard that song and was like "OMG, Tyrone!"
are you thinking about doing a mix for Stevie?

Geez, your Internet is fickle. I've definitely been there :(

35?! All I can think of is "Gitchy Goomy" by Neil Diamond. It kind of sounds like Jon is talking to Stevie; reassuring him that, even though he has had to endure things that have been damaging and is experiencing things beyond his age and maturity level, Jon will always be there to protect him as a father would. You know, the non-distant-authoritarian kind. Anyway, you don't have to use that; I just wanted to toss it in:)

That's great. I especially love the reworking of the "Another Day" lyrics.

I think I may love you. If only because I adore the song Real Good Man. :D
