hi welcome to the compitition onemanband & deegeorge
this is fabulous we have so many people entering songs now!

Here is my entry for the Christmas song Competition: 

It's called "A Curmudgeon's Christmas Carol," and (as promised) it's a cynical look at the unholy marriage between religious and commercial interests in the commercial takeover of the Christmas holiday in the United States.

www.reverbnation.com/hardtwistmusicsongwriter       1st song on the list. 

JESUS AND SANTA (A CURMUDGEON'S CHRISTMAS CAROL)

Hark, -  the herald angel sings
Second rate jingles for cheap plastic things.
I'll use up my credit, buy all that I see.
China's economy depends upon me.
Got to spend more, keep America free.
Jesus and Santa agree.

Away in a manger, a cheap plastic doll
lies snug in his cradle, asleep in the mall.
His message of hope should be clear to us all. 
"Save Christmas for retailers." Answer the call.
Got to spend more, keep America free.
Jesus and Santa agree.

For Jesus and Santa, and the red white and blue.
There's surely a little bit more I could do. 
Close out my savings - buy presents galore.
Spend all that I can plus a little bit more.
Got to spend more, keep America free.
Jesus and Santa agree.

Oh little town of Bethlehem,
encourage us to spend.
If we won't buy enough this year,
the world will surely end. 
I'm all out of credit, Not a penny to spare. 
But I'll find a way to contribute my share. 

I'll find a way to contribute my share. 

While Shephards watch their flocks at night. 
I'll do my best to make it right.
They cut back my hours. I can't pay my rent.
I'm living on credit paying 30 percent. 
I've got to spend more, keep America free.
Jesus and Santa agree.

Jesus and Santa..... Jesus and Santa ... Agree.

      Can I do mine in Easter  Tinz?   

[Paulski]

Wow - that's some competition!
Any way that you can post the list of links in this thread? - I know that's a lot of work and if you need help let me know (and I'll ask someone to help you  ), no really, I'll help hehe.
And what about making a rule that you can't vote for your own track - not that anyone would DO that!
Paul

[tina m]
