You know what... Since I've got TWO damn-terrible headlines to work with that aren't exactly stirring the creative juices, I'm just going to have to go ALL IN and try to come up with something that incorporates BOTH of them.

No, I'm not drunk (yet!) but it's just gotta be done. It's totally messed up, I know, but I pride myself on being a good lyricist so... yep. I'm probably screwed here.

So, what the hell! Challenge accepted!

@CaliaMoko You may regret offering to be my partner in crime for this one because we may just end up in music jail for this! :D

[edit] Written it! Inspiration suddenly struck me and I wrote a rap song. Mainly the "pie" headline but with a little bit of the other thrown in. Challenge not only accepted but, I feel, accomplished. At least on the lyrics front. :P

Yes, I'm going to incorporate both my headlines!! It could well turn out to be a ludicrous ditty!! I have ideas already and I'm going to start work on it tonight. I think I may have to invest in some fine ale!! ;D

Thanks @pompeyjazz

I am also going with the first idea I had for my headline (I have chosen “Intense Rivalry”)

It looks like it is going in a jazzy direction! Who knew!?

Thanks @pompeyjazz for organizing this. Poor @Jamie & @ChrisPrice have had a bit of a mare there.  ;D . Don`t think the world is ready for a rap from me yet & I can`t think of anything to rhyme with Weinstein (apart from fine time) so I think its going to be the other one "Times up for Happy Hour" which sounds like a @PaulAds title for starters so I`m going to start hitting some clowns & grating my balls to get me in a vicious mood . :D

I'm happy with my headlines. Whether the forum will be able to cope with what I do with them might be another matter!! ;D

Likely to take me a few days yet but it's coming along!! I hope to have it done before next Friday's Zoom which I'll attend if I possibly can - or if I dare!! ;D

Happy to say, I have one in the bank (no pun intended) courtesy of "The Donkey."  ;D

Do we all release the songs at the same time or is there a different instruction?

Yes, 31st May - That gives us all a bit of time. With regards to releases, maybe we choose a schedule like we did on the Binladeda challenge where one song is released every 2 or 3 days ? Other ideas welcome of course  :)
