Anyway, does anyone know how long it usually takes to get a reply for this kind of thing?

Queenslander!

You're not special anymore.

I like this title and have some music but now I'm waiting for my partner to write words and sing them... hear that, partner? I'm callin you out.

k i wrote one, did it up roughly. i sent it in because im leaving town today and i dont have any way to send it later...like always i should have spent more time recording and tweeking it but i didnt. i hope some of you like it. if not im sure i'll find out

I wrote a blues song, and was planning an old time delta blues type arrangement to it, complete with fake vinyl pops and clicks and and an introductory monologue from the student DJ who was supposed to be playing the records for the "blues till dawn" specialty show on college radio station WTFU at 2:00am.

Then I listened to the "Ignorance is Bliss" fight, and heard Chin Music's take on a similar idea, and realized there was no way I could follow that just one week later.

So I cranked up the distortion pedal and did my usual wanking. Enjoy.

Hmm, partner is not going to make it either. If anyone wants to sing a song for me, drop me a PM otherwise I'll try to do it later in the weekend (not for SF obviously).

PS it's electronic and somewhat fast and will have vocoder.

I sent in some stink, and again did not receive a confirmation. I'm not complaining, just pointing out how quickly we get spoiled. Or accustomed, if you prefer.

hi i'm back and i wrote a song

I should be in with some typical Oedipus

ok nevermind all that, my plans for tonight got cancelled so i did the lyrics and vox myself. as jb says: "man if you wanna do it you're gonna do it no matter what the deadline." so look out for a hinc entry this week.

I used some of Niveous' All Tan lyrics for my verses this week. Thanks Niv!

Wow. Thanks!

I wrote a rather good song but stupidly thought the title was 'Lose Control'. So that won't be entered.

Although given Ken's flagrant disregard for the 'song written for a title' aspect of the comp, perhaps I should've done

He did make a song written for the title by reinterpretting existing lyrics into a new song. This has been done many times during Songfight. A notable example would be Urine Luck's "Dog Without Warning" which reinterpreted lyrics by the 2 Live Crew.

not songfighting sucks shit
so........
if Jimmy Tamborello's lawyer calls, tell him I fell off a cliff.

Mine has electro-choir.

...feel free to quit.

Hey, something else that warms the heart is having a song to write and work on during a FRIDAY NIGHT! Ya, know -- beer and staying up late and stuff like that? Can ya help a guy out? Somebody? Spudbody?

I didn't make it in time. I couldn't find the right music and then when I did, I couldn't think up enough lyrics to match it. Oh well.

Next fight, I'll make it up to you guys.

Sure, write a song called "What's Wrong With People?"

It's due 12:01 AM Monday, 9/18. Post it on a thread in Sidefights.

im totally missing out on the songfightness as how rone is. i never have time to write a song for songfight anymore. i need a full day to do absolutely nothing. i need to work on being a lot less useful to people.
