I thought I'd ask if anyone is up for a competition, (more of an exercise really, as I hate to go head-to-head with other writers and have a voting system which defines one song as being better than another).
I'm going to find time this weekend to resurrect a song that I'm really proud of but know that I didn't do justice to the first time around. My plan is to add guitar or guitars, real bass instead of bass that was played on a keyboard, perhaps one or two more bells and whistles and I'll then remix.
Would there be any interest from forum members to perhaps do the same with one of their compositions? I think perhaps the forum would benefit from some kind of shared activity like this, whereby members direct their creative energy toward something that we could all participate in. We'd also get to hear some of the great work that members present and is perhaps long forgotten.
Please respond to this post if there is any enthusiasm for this idea.

Just for the record, I think it’s a fabulous idea, Paul
I spent most of my days, listening to old songs and wishing I’d of done it another way.
Some of my songs are very dear to me and it’s often the case I feel I haven’t done them justice.
I will, without doubt return to some key songs, and do my very best to improve them.
Aah. But I find it incredibly difficult to work in the confines of a fixed schedule.
Your idea is sound.
P.s.
I used to really enjoy the forum madness of rating one song over another.
Aka “Song of the month”.
If I didn’t win my little ego, would struggle (not always but usually). lol.
