Song Fight – Monkeys On My Back
So I entered this contest…and lost…by ONE! No big deal. It was a lot of fun and congratulations to the winner Berkeley Social Scene. Song Fight has been around for a long time and this was my first entry in it. The object is to write a song with the title that’s given to you. This one was called Monkeys On My Back. It was the first time I think I ever put myself in any kind of pressure to write a song by a deadline and surprised myself that I could do it. The song was written and recorded the night before it was due and I know, it shows. You can call this a demo. A new recording of the song is in the works and will be finished if I ever get my studio painted and setup. I had a song written for the next entry but got into painting the room and didn’t get a chance to record it. Click on the links above to get to the song. I’ll put a direct link here later.

You should have won. I would have voted if I knew about it. Don’t care for the winner. Can’t make out the lyrics. Very hard to understand.
Thanks. I wanted to see how I’d fare without posting anything about it beforehand.
