I'm gonna be out this one as well. I've got to get into my new schedule for my upcoming projects. Once I get into the swing of it, I'll no doubt throw together some crap for a song.

OMFG I am so in.

This is my favorite title in a while, and will remain so even if I don't like any of the resulting songs. It's a good title all on its own.

Yep, this title is wide open. I like that. Makes me want to do something bouncy.

This title is so open-ended! I love it. I might even be able to avoid just shouting it for a chorus. :lol:

If I can get motivated enough tonight to make a track, I'll get some vocals up tomorrow night and I'll be in. I like the title alot just like the others. :)

If I get motivated and write a song, record it, mix it down and submit it before the deadline, then I'll be in.

Yeah last time I was never confirmed so I though I'd go ahead and leave that out. I'm kind of exciting to hear everyone's lyrics for this song. How much of what, you know? :wink:

Maybe in. I might try to merge this fight and the following project a friend challenged me with:

write a song about the significance of english culture on India in the late 18th century. i want it on my desk in 2 weeks and make it snappy
it must have a tritone in the melody and must contrain two major chords a major 3rd or minor 6th away from eachother in the chorus
it has to end on a plagal cadence, with like a mock church hymn, yet bluesy sorta thing. success will result in 100 points added to your life score

Anyone else up for this optional challenge?
My other music is Old Time / shape note.

That's a pretty intense optional challenge. I'm kind of just working on making a regular song that is listenable.

This intrigues me, and I'll consider it, but this guy sounds not only demanding, but arrogant. Who do you know that has the power to add points to my life score?

With that kind of power you'd be arrogant too.

i'll be throwing in some small trumpet parts too, just bought one for $45 last weekend, so we'll see how that goes over with you all...

I'll probably be doing some trumpeting also. But mine cost considerably more than that.

You actually got a playable instrument for $45????

Steve
a couple of the slides (only one actually slides out) are dent up and it doesn't look too pretty, but it makes sounds and the valves operate well

i was ecstatic when i managed to pull a decent sounding note out in the right key and time

learning guitar ain't shit compared to the trumpet
