A friend said that if i wanted to increase traffic through my site i had to come up with stuff to do, so i had a wee think and i came up with this...

I was thinking about starting a lyrics competition on my site.


Basically i make a piece of music, and invite people to write lyrics for it....€20 prize to the winner.

Do yous think this would be a good idea?

I may up the prize to €50 after my feedback from other places, but the idea is sound...i'll work on it in the next couple of weeks.

Don't worry, Andy, I got the joke.

Huck, I think it's a bonus idea. Let me know when you get it off the ground.

Will do. If you fancy writing some album reviews or something equally useful that would build the site content a bit, visit it and drop an idea in the forum...could do with some interesting content.

If I upload any lyrics to your site I'll make darned sure they are copyrighted first. Write your own you lazy git! 😀😀

Come on Mike, cut him some slack. He's in the midst of buying a home and probably could use the dough. Should your (uncopyrighted) lyrics skyrocket him to stardom I'm sure he'd make sure you got your just rewards....right Huck?

Yeah? I write lyrics. I could also use the cash.
What themes were you thinking about?
rhyming?
lengthy?
verse/chorus orientated?

I can't speak for Huck but I'm guessing the only constraint is that it has to go with the music he writes. 😛
