Gee, I hope you two don't have the same song.
Christ on a cracker, mine wrote itself too. I think this title might be the devil.
a band called crazy backwards alphabet did the absolute best cover of la grange. almost better than zz and the tops did! (fyi)
also, I might be in on this fight, but I'm kinda balls deep remaking that totally awesome "I kissed a girl" song right now... so we'll see how that pans out. it feels so wrong, but it feels so right....

Fluf, the secret of getting ahead is getting started. I'm sure it will be interesting because you're an interesting person. Always remember, be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

This is why I don't usually post my lyrics.
I finished early this time (due to another deadline on Oct 1).
I think this is the first time one of my songfight songs has absolutely no guitar in it.
It's about as lean as my "paper thin" song, but it's catchier and more full-band than what I've been submitting lately.
It really wrote itself.
It was done and recorded in about two hours.

with respect, i don't think that you can still call it your song when someone creates an entirely different melody and arrangement for it. i don't know exactly what i would call it though. it wouldn't be a cover because that relies on the original form of the song to provide a base for the reinterpretation. the whole idea just rubs me the wrong way. i think i may just be afraid that the lyricburgler's version of the song would be better than my own. put that in your pipe and quote it.
Good point TWS. I wonder about this a bit. Example, My Interesting Times song was performed by Paco and myself, but the lyrics were written by Niveous. I entered it as BLT featuring Paco. Then in the lyrics section mentioned lyrics by Niveous. I'm never quite sure of the protocol. Also, notice how I said "my" Interesting Times song? Why do I do that when it's really our song?
Is yours crunchy guitar-driven rock?
