Hi Gang

I had to use the Idol word, this way you would read this for sure lol...

I'm always trying out new things on the boards, always have.
What I have this time is pretty simple. It is a fun rock pop song melody & lyric contest
.
The goals here are to finish this song and make it as cool as possible.
Share a great exercise here for writing and in this genre. make a final product that will be pitched and also impress your kids if you have any smile
Mom, Dad this is your song?

And of course mainly for fun, but just because I make light of it don't think for a second that it's not serious. No one breathing takes there music more seriously than I do! You can also send me a PM on it if your more comfortable doing it that way.

Here Are The Instructions,Rules And Rewards smile

1- I'll have part of the song up on Soundclick that is downloadable, It is not finished! You are welcome to download it and write a melody or lyric or both to it.

2- Record a vocal with your melody on it if you have the means to. Even if you don't have definite words use any words, Hum whistle whatever you can do.
If you only have lyrics that's fine also.

3- Post your recording with melody back up on this thread, If you have words post them here as well. Post lyrics only here to.

4- The music is catchy already and you can hear the chorus section repeating over and over till the very end section. You can come up with parts for the short end as well, anything you hear. Once we have the chorus we will come back for the verses.
And I'll give you the whole track

5- Just like in the business you must deal with deadlines, that means writing under pressure so lets say March 19th is the last night for submissions.

6-The lyrics could come from one person and melodies from another,it can be up to a three way collab if need be.

7- Very Important Anyone can submit but there is no guarentee that we will find the perfect match. I can promise that I can determine who's submission matched up the best with the music. But can't promise that we will find a keeper.
But I am hoping there is a definte keeper here.

8- It's not really a Reward however if chosen as a keeper the winner will have rights to the song. And it will be a cool song. smile

*It will demoed to the fullest with no cost to you whatsever. The demo will be Broadcast Quality. Cost for a demo such as this would range from 700-1200 dollars easy. You can hear how cool the live instruments are sounding already.

*It will be eventually shopped for film and TV and anywhere else you or I or we care to submit it. You can promote the song anywhere you like.

The Song picks up from the pre-chorus and goes into the chorus till the end section...... it can be downloaded here... HAVE FUN!
