Forward for LOVE-THEMED, POP SONGS

Post by Casey H » Tue Jan 31, 2017 6:01 pm

This forward made our day today, that is me and Spring Lovelle. :D :D
CONTEMPORARY, LOVE-THEMED, POP SONGS with Female Vocals are needed for a $5,000, NON-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor placement in Feature Film by an A-List Canadian Director/Producer. Please submit emotionally compelling, Down-to-Mid-Tempo Songs that are in the general stylistic wheelhouse of Beyoncé, Adele, Birdy, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the references the Supervisor gave us to get a sense of what he needs for this scene: “Broken-Hearted Girl” by Beyoncé: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXmUYdOVJtc “Someone Like You” by Adele: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQl3WQQoQ0 “Wings” by Birdy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJTXDCh2YiA Please send well-crafted, contemporary, heartfelt and lyrically engaging Songs. Your song should be super strong for this pitch, with memorable, and emotionally moving melodies, and a Top 40 chorus that’s all about the “L” word, as in L.OV.E. Lyric themes about the positive and romantic aspects of love will work best. They’re NOT looking for break-up songs at this time. Your production can range from a simple but powerful, stripped-down piano or guitar/vocal ballad to a fuller arrangement that’s got the whole band and maybe even a string section. And of course, anything in between! Your vocal delivery needs to be really strong and emotionally compelling for this Film. Please avoid lyric references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Please do NOT copy or rip off the referenced artists in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, texture, tone, and vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). The estimated license fee is $5,000, depending on the ultimate placement. This is a Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor pitch. You'll get 100% of the sync fee, and 100% of any applicable performance royalties. Plus, you'll also keep 100% of your Publishing and Master ownership. You need to own or control your Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. Please submit 1-3 Songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PST), on Monday, January 16, 2017. TAXI #Y170116PS
We had gotten a little discouraged by library rejections on this one. So even if nothing comes of this forward, the validation is huuuuuuge!!! :D :D Thank you Spring Lovelle for being such an awesome co-writer and friend 8-) and also Scott Free for the production!

That's Spring Lovelle. She's awesome. We met at the rally in 2015 and another collab team was born. :D
