ORIGINAL SONG CONTEST 2010

Post by Hemperor »

Last year's was a great success, we had three awesome entries. This year I am hoping for more. The initial prize is 100k that I will supply, I am hoping (and expecting :mrgreen: ) that a few others will contribute to this to further encourage people to put the time and effort into making an entry.

The rules are the same:
It can be a rap, jingle, sing it to a guitar, whatever you want. Length is up for you to decide. There will be multiple judges to be announced that will score the songs on creativity, style, originiality and delivery.
Multiple entries are allowed.

The end date for submissions will be May 20th, this should give everyone sufficient time. The winner will be announced on May 21st.

Here is a link to last years contest:

Feel free if you have any questions or would like to contribute to the prize (you can hold onto it until the 21st if you are worried about scams :P )

Good luck!

THE CURRENT PRIZE IS: 110k

Hm, this could be cool. I'm not exceptionally talented on the guitar or the most creative person, but this might be a bit of fun.

All else fails I'll sing "happy birthday dear Hemperor" in a drag voice.

OT: I share Hemperor's birthday (just date, not year... I have pubes)

Two things: I'm assuming it's got to be UO/SA specific in nature? It's not mentioned in the OP so I just want some clarification

And, can I enter?

It doesn't have to be specific to SecondAge lore and names, can just be oldschool UO.

And of course you can enter.

Here's my latest tune I've been working on for my new album "Surreal Nightmares":

http://soundclick.com/share?songid=9052621

I probably can't enter with this tune as it's not really themed for UOSA, or UO for that matter... but thought I would try anyways! :D
