Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on July 22, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 1 people
- Final notes: Most of you were great. I can only say that I had a hard time judging it as most of you did amazing. I'm afraid that I cannot pull off most of these songs, as most are written from a female point of veiw, to a male. The ones I have selected are the best for the songs I would play. Not, because they were terrible, but because I simply cannot execute them. Thanks for your time, and effort, were getting together to write the 3 winners soon message me for the Deets. I hope to see your poetry in my next contest. Later nukkuh.

+ Jackie -
-
thanks, and if you enter, good luck
-
-
aww, shannon sent me here - only thing I've never written lyrics - but I know someone who does!
-
-
you should try going outside your genre
-
-
haha, I'm taking a break from 6 monhs of doing just that.
-
-
-
You really should allow prewritten entries. It'd simply make more sense for lyricists.
-
-
k their allowed lol
-
-
There's lyrics for screaming? I am laughing at what that might be. I don't know how to spell screaming words very well.
-
-
Caps Lock always works lol
-
-
Oh, can we submit more than one?
-
No offense, but... if you're in a band, and you can't write your own lyrics... you have a problem. Also, isn't this kind of tenuous legal ground, copyright-wise?
-
-
no, cause it says, were gonna use it
-
-
yikes
Shannon cornered me at work yesterday
She told me about it and I thought, why not? I did what I could...
wish I had more time, though, I had to go to work right after it...you're blessed, Brandan, she's a wonderful friend and an amazing woman...
-
Wow such a good contest. I'm having a writers block either, but I'll try very hard for this one. I promise
Good luck everyone -
I would write for you but if i write a good song {lyrics} it would be rather useless for muh band. So wish you the best of luck in finding what cha want
-
aha Shannon sent me .. I'll give a shot Good Luck with finding what u want
-
I would enter with something I just wrote (my first song...), but my friend saw it first and asked if her (possible) band could use it. Sorry.
