Here's how it works: We want to hear from every aspiring Bright Eyes and would-be Andre 3000 in the land. From today until Oct. 20, any unsigned band/singer-songwriter/act in America can submit one original, never-before-released-online song for consideration. Before entering, you must read our Terms and Conditions here, and if you accept, send your song in MP3 format to songsearch@salon.com and include the phrase "I Agree" and the title of your song in the subject line.

A couple of snips from the terms that seemed important to note:

"... the track must not be available for download anywhere else on the Internet" (not a big deal, but it means you can't just send in a SongFight! entry, unless you want to try to have the fightmasters remove it from the archive)

"By submitting an MP3 file to the contest, entrant agrees to allow Salon Media to make available entrant's name and MP3 music submission in all media in perpetuity without compensation. Additionally, entrant agrees that if his or her submission is selected as a winner it may be submitted by Salon for further broadcast syndication without further compensation, or as otherwise mutually agreed between Salon and the winners."
