[Dead Weight]

Hello folks,  

Dead Weight here to take you through the April 2014 Lyric of the Month competition.  I must admit it was very hard whittling down from my own personal shortlist of 13 to just these 5 narratives.  In the interests of wider competition, I have only allowed one song per lyricist.  

Here are the nominations:

Gwyneth Rose – Hell Hath No Fury

Bernd – Getting Lost Down Under

Benjo – Six Old Strings

Peejay – Easy On Those Drums Son

Please message me with your vote by Midday on Sunday 18th May.  The winner will be announced shortly after.

Thanks all,

Dead Weight

Congratulations to Rocking Snowman.

It was the tightest of competitions, with votes spread very evenly across all five nominations.  Well done to the other nominees.

This is the first time ever, one of my songs (lyrics) has been nominated in a competition.
To say that "You've made my Day" would be an absolute understatement 
I can only imagine how difficult it must have been to sift through and nominate a mere 5 lyrics
from the many, many more that are deserving. I feel for you. But so saying, "Thank You" for nominating "Hell hath no Fury" - I feel so humbled and honoured, both at the same time.
Good luck everyone.
