Rules:

Open to all forum members

Ideally we want people to collaborate on this, it's more interesting that way. But if you'd rather work alone, that's cool too. Put your name down here if you're playing, and if you do want to team up with someone, say what you want to do, ie. produce, write, provide instrumentals, sing etc...

Paulski and myself are organising this one, and we'll gather your names up and if you want to work with someone we'll match you as best we can.

Should be a new song  

One solo song per member plus a collaboration

Submitted by 31st July

Suggest people put Lyrics, WIP and Finished songs are placed in the relevant thread. Then when we get to the final stage at the end July we'll put them all together at the front piece of this Dreams thread for voting.

Voting by PM to Paulski and myself [that way we can enter the competition ourselves]

Vote for top three

So please post that you're entering and if you are looking to collaborate.

We'll add list of entrants here

All usual terms and conditions apply etc and good luck.

Neil, Paulski - I'm itching to say I'm in but am still nursing a broken wrist - My cast will be removed in a week. Whilst I want to throw my name into the hat, I'm concerned about not being able to deliver in the coming weeks :-(

 lets take a step into another world
 all you've got to do is close your eyes
 where you gonna go to you'll never know
 who knows what happens on a sleepers slide

 did you just step into your future
 or visit a life left in the past
 who are the faces you don't recognise
 who's the ghostly image in the glass
 
 dreams
 are they really what they seem
 you know what you've seen
 but what does it mean

 dreams
 the strangest of places
 most unlikely scenes

 just relax and slip out of reality  
 slowly your subconscious takes control
 leave the body it's no longer needed
 take the ride just let your mind go
 
 dreams
 are they really what they seem
 you know what you've seen
 but what does it mean

 dreams
 the strangest of places
 most unlikely scenes

 lets take a step into another world
 all you've got to do is close your eyes
 where you gonna go to you'll never know
 who knows what happens on a sleepers slide

Ok I'm going to break 2 habits of a lifetime here and A, enter a competition, & B, Collaborate with someone
I have some music which has been kicking about for a couple of weeks but due to my recording schedule I haven't had any time to do anything with it, so if someone wishes to write some lyrics to it and fire it back across to me we can stick it in the pot and see what comes out.
I'll do an acoustic guitar track and write a lead sheet out so you know where the verses, choruses are etc.... and then whomever is doing the lyrics can just fill in the blanks.
If anyone wants to give it a shot let me know.
Cheers
Mark

Sounds like fun, count me in...

I'll set about writing some lyrics, but you guys will need to team me up with a composer.

Should I post the lyrics here when I have something or does it not work like that?

Yeah - post them here! You might also put them in collabs in case someone doesn't look here. 

[Wicked Deeds]

Ok, I'll write lyrics on the theme, not sure if I can manage music as my recording set up isn't I place. If someone would like to help as a collaboration then please give me a shout.  If production is more your thing, then I'll write the chord progression, vocal melody and lyrics. I'm not to bothered about trying to win a competition, just want to enter into the spirit of things and kickstart my writing.

Cheers

Paul

[Wicked Deeds]

Hey Neil, I've responded to your message. Just written the lyrics which should be in your inbox.

Thanks

Paul

[Neil C]

Paul,
Thats great I look forward to having a  go at them.

[MartiMedia]

Nice challange! I'm in solo, but as I learn to know the members of this great forum better, I'll be open to collabs! And the other way around as well. If I can help you with vocal harmonies or a lead voice, let me knoW! MM
