Just an update..... and a thank you to all the upstanding forumites who have come forward so far to step into the unknown.  :o ;D

I think that Ramshackles offer to mix all the entries is an incentive in itself. I recommend a listen to the EP. Available free to all here too... A bargain!  :o 8)
We may end up with a UK Songwriters Forum Album for sale soon....!!!  :P ;D

Volunteers so far:-

Lyricists.
The Corsair: Sellon: Soul Punk: Melfen: Tinam: Mr Chainsaw, QuietRamen, Peppermint.

Instrumentalists
Kafla: Dutchbeat: Schavuitje: Beware this Boy: Mr Chainsaw, Flossie, Chipchase, Tinam.

BTW. If you're name is here and not supposed to be or in the wrong category ...PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

We had 10 Lyricist and only 8 Instrumentalists entering. So I hope nobody objects to myself filling in one spare instrumentalist slot?
I totally understand if anyone does and I will step down and hand the baton over to Flossie, who was the only instrumentalist to say that they could do more than one and is already doing two.

Here is the draw. (With the song to be used where one was supplied)

Instrumentalist - Lyricist - Song Title

Flossie --------------------QuietRamen       TBD
Dutchbeat ---------------- Sellon              TBD
Chipchase ----------------Mr Chainsaw     TBD
Tinam --------------------- Peppermint           When We Were Young
Mihkay ------------------- SongsThatCry   TBD
Mr Chainsaw ------------ The Corsair           An Underdog Story
Kafla --------------------- Tinam             TBD
Schavuitje --------------- Soul Punk          Pale White Ghost
Bewarethisboy --------- Melfen              The One.
Flossie ------------------- Caifx004           TBD

I will PM everyone individually in the morning.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE AND ENJOY YOURSELVES. REMEMBER, THERE IS NO FAILURE. ANYTHING THAT COMES FROM THIS IS A BONUS.

The rules are in the first post of this thread and I'd recommend that any completed works are posted in the Reviews section with the prefix "PAIRSCOMP"

You have two months. Entries should be in by 11pm London time on 29th June. Ladies.....Gentlemen start your entries.
