I entered the UK Songwriting Contest, and I got the "Commended Entry" position.

From a recent UK Songwriting Contest Newsletter:

"Other songs that showed above average talent and ability were awarded Commended Entry status."

Woo!

It was for the song "So I Guess We're Over".



Well pleased.

I'm also working with a professional and we're working on a pro version of "The Boy on The Front Page".

Should be up in about a week

Hi Guys

It's been a while.

This is the rock song I've been working on so far.

Some people in America are recording it for me for $125.

This is what we've got so far.

I think:
I think I'd prefer the lead guitar to be a little higher in mix.. In the intro when the rhythm guitars come in I think maybe they could be a bit quieter? It might just be because I'm used to hearing it without a lead guitar. What do you think?

Also in the chorus as well. I'd love to hear the lead guitar standing out just a bit more. Don't know what you think.

And the vocals are a bit high in the mix do you think?

Also I'd like to add some backing vocals.. if anyone has any ideas please feel free to download the song and add something over the top. Or if you don't want to do that just say what you think here.

Thanks guys.



LYRICS:

Everyday after school
I think of all things
I should have said to you
I should have told you

Third times the charm
But I'm not sticking around
Too hear your lies again
I should have said

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

I wish I knew
3 years ago
Why I started to
Fall in love with you

What made me
Want to be with
The one that I would
Grow to hate

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

And after all of this
All of this
You still come crawling back to me

And then when you're done
When you're done
It all comes rushing back to me

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

You said you're sorry
Too many times before
Now I can't believe
Your stories any more

Pop kind of style.

I'll send you a version with my vocals + a karaoke version . Let's see what you can do .

Just a quick track made and recorded today.

Not really sure where to go next, or what to lead into for the chours!

Help!
.

EDIT: Left the drum loop going at the end lol, just ignore it.

This is a one day project, wrote and recorded in one day. Not too long so it won't take much of your time.

I probably could have spent more time perfecting it, but I'm going to my Dad's tommorow on Boxing Day, and I'm not going to be able to do it there.

Woo!

It's nearly christmas again!

Are we going to be doing a new christmas song collaboration?
