Basically, on April 9th, 2004, a guy named Andrew living in [[Toronto]] created a website where people could request songs about any subject. Initially, the rule was that all songs would be under 1 minute and 11 seconds, but that rule has since been done away with.
 
Since STWPT's opening, hundreds of songs havehad been requested about pretty much ''any'' subject, from [https://web.archive.org/web/20130514114019/http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/beware-the-sea-anenemone/ Sea Anemones] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20130514085812/http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/how-to-actually-wear-pants/ instructions on how to put on pants] to [https://web.archive.org/web/20130514113836/http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/evil-pickle-vs-everyone/ evil pickles killing everybody] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20130704053359/http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/we-are-the-robot-pirates/ robot pirates].
