The Song Fight Bulletin Board

Are you ready for a spoooooooky fight? Maybe we should have a side fight called "Sugar Skulls" that's a sequel to "Sugar Shaker" where everybody has to make a Halloween dance song a la "Monster Mash" too.

Hmmm I like this title, if I can come up with something that's not about Mexican zombies or James Bond ... Then again, what more could one want from life?

Just ask Niveous to write it for you.

And I will happily do so.

I was going to say, hey I don't the words to be *that* grim ... but Niveous words are always good. Might take you up on that!

I'm going to try to track a bunch of stuff for my entry using Niveous's lyrics, feel free to watch:

Niveous gave me some great lyrics and I have done a basic scratch recording of them but I need to spend some time tomorrow actually recording the song. Fortunately I have no other obligations tomorrow.

I'm in, with lyrics provided by Niveous.

I've submitted. My attempt at Bossa Nova.

I'm also in, with a song that is neither bossa nova-esque or with lyric by Niv. I am also unsure of the mix, due to technical problems. It's probably horrendously bassy - or alternatively, massively tinny. We shall see - exciting!

when did I forget how to play piano

Ok, submitted. Looks like it's my first solo entry since... Feb of 2012. I guess all these young kids will have no idea who I am.
I had no idea it had been that long!

ok I'm in too. Didn't do the best job but whatev. Thanks, Niveous.

What fluffy said.

I'm in. With a Niveous song.

Sort of reminded me of someone. So, instead of watching Mad Max and her moving to Paris as Niv wrote, we watched "Withnail and I" and she moved to Adelaide. Not a goth, but she did like The Saints and knew how to roll a J however. And dammit, she was cool.

J. Biveous is in with an old school rocker. Please explore the upper limits of your volume control when you play this song.

Thanks for the lyrics Niveous! Another Song Fight deadline comes and goes. Smoke 'em if ya got 'em.

I'm in also, with lyrics by Niveous. Thanks Niv! This should be a fun fight to listen to.

In! I've got to stop waiting until the due date to do vocals and mix

So who submitted under an alternate band name and who just did "normalname ft. Niveous" and who just did their own name? This is gonna be a glorious mess.

I thought about submitting as "Nockpuppet" or "Sockeous" or something but I just did "Sockpuppet ft. Niveous" but now I'm regretting that.

I submitted as Lunkhead. I put "Lyrics by Niveous, music by Lunkhead" in the "Composer" ID3 tag.

Should I make an executive decision about normalizing how things are presented, when handling the song intake and posting the fight...?

Also, FYI, if you haven't gotten your song in already do it soon as I'm hoping to get them posted sooner rather than later.

Lunkhead, if I wanted to submit an updated mix right now, should I just send a second email formatted exactly as the first one was?
