Seems to me like if something got old after two times, it would be highly qualified for the idea of getting old fast, I mean, that's REALLY fast!

Re: Nur Ein X - Round One

Ok, I'm in.

My “Tambourine” is a broken beer bottle in a capri sun cardboard box
My “Washboard”/“Shaker” is an empty Lay’s chips bag I rustled between my hands like starting a fire
My “Go-Go bells” are tuned beer bottles (Guinness Blonde ale)

Re: Nur Ein X

If I'm not mistaken, working on writing the song before the title and challenge are posted goes against the spirit, if not the rules, of the competition. I would assume this also applies to "arrangement." ( not sure how you arrange an unwritten song). Of course, it's all trust method aroun...

Re: Nur Ein X

I'm not sure that I agree with Ross that the songs were any better in the extended period, either. Ross' El Balazo is one of my favorite of all SF! songs and that was from the first EIN. First off, Thanks! Second, I din't recall ever having said I think the songs are better with an extended period....

A little something I threw together, but about time I was back at this - and if my math is right, this is ten years since my first fight.

The rules are that you are to write a song that has the title provided. NOT that is merely inspired by it. Not to be contrarian - but I have long been frustrated by this distinction, and occasionally criticized for agreeing with you in my reviews. Here is what the FAQ say "a brand new song ins...
