My 11yr old daughter has a life threatening illness and wants to sing a hit record for charity.
She is currently making an album with Christmas songs but really wants a hit song of her own. She has a pleasant voice and has many lead parts in her school and theatre school etc. She had a very bad 2012 where she had a life saving operation and has to take upto 50 tablets a day and has phisio twice a day. she has numerous hospital appointments so if I could make this happen for her it would be fantastic. She so deserves it because although she is very poorly she always thinks of ways to help others. She won bravest child award in the fylde borough last year and it made her year. If I could find a hit song and maybe some sponsorship then 2013 could end on a high for her. Thank you.

Moved to collaborations forum.

I'm not sure what your definition of hit song is, but you should know that for every hit there are 1000's of songs trying to be hits. So if you're actually looking for genuine chart success, you may want to reconsider your expectations.

What a great idea

I can't guarantee a hit (I wish I could!!) but I will get the ball rolling and offer up any of my songs

Here are the recorded songs:

https://soundcloud.com/boydiemusic/sets/boydie-original-songs

Here is a selection with no vocals - the lyrics are in the description

If she wants an original Christmas song she could always give this one a go:

I am sure the other writers wouldn't mind (but if you did want to use this one I would need to check so let me know!)

If there are any other ideas you have just let me know and I will do everything I can to help you make this happen and I am sure this is something others on the forum would want to get behind

Well you've come to the right place - and who knows, the song you use may even turn out to be a hit.

Good luck finding a collaborator :)
