Ottawa, Ontario -- One man's spam is another man's song -- and sometimes it's even a whole album.

That's the concept behind a new compilation CD, "Outside The Inbox," which features 14 different bands recording original songs titled after popular spam subject lines.

Some of the spam-inspired songs include "Do You Measure Up," "Erik, Someone Wants To Date You," and two ditties called "Urgent Business Confidential."

Compilation organizer and performer Brad Sucks -- his ditty is called "Look And Feel Years Younger" -- says some spam songs are literal but just as many pay only cursory attention to the title.

So far, the spam CD is only available at www.bradsucks.net but, even so, it's getting better response than the annoying e-mails that inspired it.

Sucks says there's talk of TV appearances, music festivals and, even better, another album. That's good because his inbox is being inundated with lots of new spam song submissions.
