Yeah, that’s definitely a cover of Crowded House, which was one of my requests for gom. Thanks Caravan! Yes. Maybe bit of confusion there. Sent that to Mike to add to the other GOM covers. Don’t think Crowded House have never entered SongFight. Sorry Mike - can that get removed and added to other p...

Is Caravan Ray's song 'Better Be Home Soon' for Gift of Music? Feels like it's the Crowded House tune... I'm trying to get all the covers and originals downloaded so we can hear then back to back. Caravan Ray sent over a bunch of songs, I just added them all in. Yes, I believe he said one was for a...

Songs are posted on the first page. Enjoy!

I've got all the songs minus Jocko, will be posting them up shortly, then I'll leave it to BoffoYux to provide details for the listening party.

Hey folks, hope the songs are coming along! I've just seen the Nur Ein announcement that it will be starting this coming Monday, so I'm inclined to not do a long extension for the coverfight. We're also thinking about doing a listening party the night of the 4th (US/PDT.) I'm thinking the deadline f...

You know, I meant to sign up for this. If there are other stragglers or whatev and I can be included, let me know. There are no stragglers as of yet. If you want to submit a cover, I can randomize you one of the existing participants, or you can just cover whatever you like. I can't guarantee that ...

There were 15 entrants, I've sent out all the matches via board PM now.

- songs due by 0900 Sunday 3 May PDT (UTC-7)

Can we link my bonus track in the master list as well? (Just realized both bonus tracks are Radiohead, what are the odds?)

I moved the track links to the front page so I didn't have to edit in multiple places:

Gift of Music - COVID-19 Special Edition Tracks

Yay, Ujn Hunter & Friends for Cybronica - Kooks

Oops, updated the name in the main list of tracks.

I am finally in, have emailed my song for Owl. Mucho apologies for the tardiness. Still not completely sold on this mixdown and I may rework it, feel free to PM me if anything seems glaringly off.

And I still can't sing.

Thanks! Albatross for Owl - Shark

How delightful! Owl has submitted a bonus track! Owl for JB - Blackstar (Radiohead). I'm not normally a big Radiohead fan personally, but this cover gives me chills, especially the harmonies. Thanks Owl!

Oh, I can only get in if we can count Spintunes. They're sidefights, they count, right?

Sure, anything in the Songfighter's published catalog is fair game as far as I'm concerned.

I just posted for the OFCF in another thread if anyone is interested! The instructions/rules are over there.

As has been discussed on the GOM thread, we're gonna keep the boredom momentum rolling for all who wish to participate in different avenues of SF! To that end, I'm opening up an Original Flava coverfight. For those who are unfamiliar, an Original Flava Coverfight is where Songfighters cover the song...

An Original Flava coverfight could certainly be fun. Taking the Sleepy Door's comments to heart, I'd want whatever we do to be as inclusive as possible, and the OF does kinda limit newcomers since they may not have many (or any!) songs to be covered. Let's give the Nur Ein thread a day or two to see...

We're thinking about doing a Round 2 of the GoM COVID-19 fight, so if Nur Ein is happening soon we'd probably hold off.

If folks are interested in a Round 2 as Caravan Ray describes, I'm happy to curate it. I think I'd propose something like this: - (PUBLIC OPTION) folks respond (in a new thread) with their song-of-choice to cover - (SECRET OPTION) folks PM me directly with their song-of-choice to cover - i'll tabula...

While the covers are fun and all - I am really enjoying Micah’s Spotify playlist. A great diverse collection of stuff I probably would not have otherwise heard before. Though what is it with the 20 TMBG songs? Maybe we could go another round of this but this time “ people’s choice”. Anyone can play...

I submitted my song last night to Mike. Sorry to be late! Hopefully he will post soon.

Thanks! Added Geech for Fluffy - Rift

Mike Lamb for Johnny Cashpoint - Orange Juice Sir, you are a STAR, This is great! And also closes off a song I kept offering up to folk for GOM 4 or 5 years in a row! Lovely! J$ I'm so glad you liked it! That track definitely spoke to me, as you might be able to tell from the lyric adjust. :-) Was ...
