... get away with that. ... I don't want people unpicking the challenge on a technicality.

I really resent the assumptions there about my intentions and motivations. It was an honest question, because like I said, to me these things do sound wildly different.

If one time we used steel string acoustic with constant fast chord strumming with a pick, could we use a classical guitar where I'm playing slowly w/o a pick and doing chords with fingers 2-4 and a bassline with my thumb? To my ear, those two things sound completely different, and the new song would...

I finally added Lichen Throat to the fight, sorry for the delay.

Damn, those cinnamon rolls look amazing, ya old grandpa!

"Novel" by Moss Palace Samples! Garage door opening loop going basically the whole time Drums are made from noises Erin made with a Scotch tape dispenser Some percussion noises are Erin scribbling with a pencil, some are her erasing There's also Erin striking a match mixed in there The bass "synth"...

"Novel" by Lunkhead Obviously most of my samples are just of our cat. The "shaker" is me moving a scoop in his (clean) litter box. Remember that summer we worked so hard Building a spaceship in our backyard I made you a helmet with room for your ears We flew to the moon and took rocks for souvenirs...

Sure, I will add it when I have a chance.

Can't wait to see the results of the voting.

:/

I'm honestly not looking for a loophole or trying to play gotcha here, but I wanted to check about one idea that I had while brainstorming. If I used samples from public domain audio books and incorporated them into my song as part of the main vocals/lyrics, would that meet the challenge? They are n...

Hello and welcome! Voting goes until the results go up, which is a deliberately unpredictable but relatively short amount of time after the deadline.

"June Moon" by Moss Palace June is walking home tonight She’s a shadow moving Along city sidewalks and corner shops I hear her footsteps in my head As she passes by the street where we used to live and share a drink or two Seems like ages since we danced We didn’t know that time would come to an en...

I said it in my lyrics post but I want to say here for extra visibility that my song is NOT about a person.

“June Moon” By Lunkhead This song is NOT about a person. "June Moon" the song title is standing in for Nur Ein. I gave Nur Ein she/her pronouns only because "June" is a typically female name. I was trying to make the song not actually sound like it was written about Nur Ein. I'm singing about feeli...

Rhymes within a line are ok, right, like, including the title "June Moon" within a line?

And re: repetition, can we use the same lyrics for every chorus? Or are we expected to not repeat _any_ lines or anything _ever_...?

Thanks for keeping an eye on it, fluffy, and for the heads up. I didn't even know the forum was sending emails. What emails does it send?

Songs posted! We got 9 after all, in spite of Nur Ein.
