omg thank you so much for this. This is just what I need to get my ass back in gear. On a related note, I'm thinking of making a bunch of t-shirts with the songfight logo that I made for this one (the sportsy one) on it. FMs, PM me with details on how I should handle paying you guys royalties/making...

I just submitted 3 CDs full of songs, including most of what you guys linked me to. Good luck!

I'm curious about the rights the artist retains for this use. Each deal is different. Will the artist retain full rights and therefore receive performance royalties? Or is this considered along the lines of "work for hire"? Seeing as they license commercial artists' work, I assume the for...

As you guys may or may not know, I work at an ad agency. (Which is part of the reason I haven't been fighting that much, but that's another story.) We're looking for songs to use on the new cadillac spot. Here's what my boss sent out: "In case you may not be aware of it, we are launching a new ...

Jim Tyrell wins it! He'll be getting a brand-spanking new Borat DVD in the mail, and Sausage Boy, the runner up, will be able to tell people to quit their jibba jabba with the touch of a button. PM me your addresses guys, so I can send 'em on down.

Welp, I guess procrastinating showing the results isn't gonna garner more submissions. Here they are folks, Jim Tyrell and Sausage Boy! Someone will win the Borat DVD, and someone will win the Mr. T talking keychain. Who will it be? Only you can decide. Listen here and vote using the poll at the top...

Monday, May 7th, King Arthur re-stakes his claim to being the oldest living songfighter by turning 55. In some states, that makes me a senior citizen! the 1 candle is LIT the 2 candle is LIT the 4 candle is LIT the 8 candle is not lit the 16 candle is LIT the 32 candle is LIT the 64 candle is not l...

Alright, you guys lucked out. I won't be around May 1st b/c I got roped into taking an impromptu vacation and I won't be back till the 8th (going camping in CO). So, for the record, the deadline hasn't extended, I just can't enforce it. Anything that comes before the 8th, I kinda have to let slip by...

Puce, I want to start a label just so I can beg you to sign onto it.

Happy Birthday Phil! It's definitely an honor being asked to contribute to this. I hope you and the rest of the rockingest family on SF stick around forever. After I reviewed "Couldn't Have Been Worse" as "not one of your best songs," I changed my mind. "Couldn't Have Been W...

If you don't tell me my song sucks, I'm going to assume it kicks ass. (Because in my mind, it always does.)

Bullshit. I am under no such obligation.

Whatever. Way I see it, reviewing songs is the price you pay for the privilege of getting reviews from everyone else.

Can I just say, as a consistent low-vote-getter, that I'm really not in favour of this newfangled idea of only reviewing the high scorers? (although, in all honesty, 30 songs? No way I'm reviewing all them either!) If you enter a song, you have an obligation to review all the songs in the fight. No...

Oh, we're getting into name-calling? Well then you're a pee-pee butt.

I still haven't finished my reviews, but I gotta listen to this now and see what all this broo-ha-ha is about. Production is great. It feels like a real professional song. I really like the arrangement too. Lyrics are retarded though. Bragging about your skills is SO 1987. And I wish there was some ...

No no, the bridge (I'm king of...) is all mine (or at least, mine and Modest Mouse's), as is "Cause if I said it would save five..." and the changeup at the end. Woody Guthrie does: "This land is your land... From... From... This land was made for you and me" three or four times ...

Ok, I really don't think this needs to be said, but for the record, my entry is a parody of Woody Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land."

Oh shit I knew that sounded familiar!

I should be able to make this. I've never been to Atlanta. In August... damn. That's actually great, cause then the pictures of me will look like I'm all working hard on stage when I'm really just sweaty cause it's so hot.

this sounds cool. I'd submit something if you reorganized it.

Smile isn't her best song. Her best song is "Alfie." I love that one. Most of what I like about her is her amazing voice. I'd marry her just so I could listen to her sing around the house all day.

Just picked up the Borat DVD... an exhibitionist borat DVD? Oh man, you made my night. But what's really cool is on the CD, they let you remix two of the songs. So where did you find these source files? I just put the CD in my player again on my computer and I didn't find these remix tracks. Hmmmmm...
