A quick sidefight idea

Post by Märk »

Go to wikipedia, and on the left side collumn, hit the "Random article" button. The title of the article that comes up is your song title. No cheating! (only hit it once, and either use that or don't participate) Next Sunday (September 5th, 2010) is the deadline. Any takers?

FWIW, I got "The Wasps", which is very awesome.

I'll be out of town from Thursday through Monday, so I'm out.
If I was going to do this, though, I'd be writing a song about:

This is a great idea, but I'm too deep into a song for the main fight, with no time to work on a secondary project.

It's too bad, too, my title would've been "Chalk Ministry"

Huh... "BTR-4"... my favorite Gorillaz song is "M1-A1" so this might have some legs. And I've still got time to get the Cure song out from under the big top, heh.

I'm not exactly sure I'm gonna make a go of James Nash (racing driver), but for the record that's what I'd be making a go of if a go were to get made.

Just FYI, the challenge here was part of something a bunch of us took part in a while back...

Don't know how many of the cover art images are still around, but some people came up with some pretty clever stuff...
