Songs that resulted from "Masters of Song Fu" or "SpinTunes" challenges
Autopsy of a Lollipop Lady
SpinTunes is back! After sitting out the last couple, I’m back in the game with twist. As “Drei Viertel Drei”, Katharina and I entered our song “Lollipop Lady” into the first round. The challenge was to write a song about…
The Highland Coo Song
Here is a new song, written for the SpinTunes challenge. It’s a happy little ditty about life in the food chain. A previous challenge from SpinTunes was ‘write a sad song about birth’, and this was the polar opposite: ‘write…
