Has anyone gotten a call back yet? Since they are announcing the top 20 tomorrow I would guess they would have contacted the lucky few already...I hope not though because I haven't gotten the call...I'm still sitting here praying that my song made it In any case good luck to any of you that submitted a song. Here is my song in case anyone is interestedhttp://www.tomcatontheprowl.com/songs/pleasedo ... titend.mp3

Well, I just checked out the songs that made the cut...and I made it! Just kidding. But, it was fun to write for this challenge anyway.Here's my song:http://www.broadjam.com/transmit/transm ... sq=1Tomcat, that's a bold, catchy tune you entered..nice job!André

thanks Andre, I like yours as wellOh well, it was worth a try. So since it's official now did anyone on here make it?

One thing I find very upsetting is that they are not mentioning the songwriters names, just the songs. This would have been a great way to promote someones music but other than whoever wins no one will know who the 20 writers are, very sad.

OTOH, they probably want impartial voting, and perhaps the names will be revealed after voting closes.
