Recommended Posts

  • Members

Hello one and all.

 

These seem to have become bi-monthly of late , but people seem full of ideas right now. Let me know if you'd rather it was monthly again.

 

Anyway.

 

This months challenge:

 

Time restriction - You have 1min 30 (max but im not gonna pick up on a few secs over or whatever) as the duration of your song

 

Its up to you if you'd like to do verse/chorus structure of just keep it simple.

 

Try not to take a full song and just chop the end off it - see if you can say everything you want to say in the allotted time

 

Good luck musicians

One Minute Thirty Seconds

 

V

Slipped open my vibrating phone

You know I like to stay connected

Source Restricted, Unknown

Not entirely unexpected

But in the back of my mind

This had the ring like the end of an era

Felt my composure unwind and

All at once I knew

I'm only reacting to how he's always self conscience of their length. They don't seem long to me either. Those ^ other guys are mean. Watch out for that bus! :)

 

I really don't think Justin's songs are long at all. They're Pink Floydesque and perfect at their present length.

Forgiven.

 

 

 

 

 

In all seriousness, I started working on one last night and... well... it's a challenge.

I like this idea. We're all in a hurry nowadays so get to the point, right? Plus I haven't tried one of the challenges lately.

 

So here's what I've got so far:

 

If you buy one

And get the second for free

If I grab me a third

Will they hand some money back to me

I'd just like to see

 

And if I tell you once

That I love you so

If I tell you twice

Would you pack your things and leave

For Albany

 

Oh try to help me understand

What makes a girl

Love a man like me

I need to see

 

 

I may need a catchy refrain to stretch this to 90 seconds but I'll try to post a video soon.
