Funny you should ask! I just scribbled down something and recorded most of it in a mad productive impulse tonight! Needs some piano and percussion, but I should be done in plenty of time to mail it in Thursday night.

My lyrics are up, if anyone feels like burgling them. 8-)

You mean you don't want to burgle these amazingly innovatively insightful chords and lyrics?

Besides, I already copy-wrote them. So you may burgle if you give away music for free, but if you make a dime I want my cut.

Freelancer have gotten so cutthroat. Now they want royalties just for writing copy?

Recent precedent suggests that you name the file pacodelstinko_suitcase.mp3.

Just wait until you hear the arrangement my friend. That was my first draft. Increased tempo from 60bpm to 72bpm. Added drums for texture and pulse. Filled out the low end with cello. Trumpet and trombone and the end for texture.

It's gonna be some good sauce

Hey man I took your advice and decided to read up on copyright law concerning copyrighting songs.

It seems that any new piece of music written out on staff paper is automatically copyrighted, recordings work this way as well.

What someone can try to do is replicate your work, and then beat you too the punch and try to register it before you.

When you upload onto a site like YouTube it comes with a time stamp which takes legal precedent of someone does steal your work.

I have always assumed that exactly the same thing happens when you email it to the Fightmaster and he/she uploads it to a site like Songfight!

Yeah, I'd been following that. I usually look at the specific, but it's not here for some...reason...
