Amnesia?

Post by marcblack30 » Mon Apr 14, 2008 3:23 pm

dispatch listing for :CONTEMPORARY, QUIRKY & FUN SONGS WITH VOCALS are needed by a high-profile Music Supervisor for a Major Network TV SERIES that revolves around the main character who suffers from amnesia, forcing her to find out who she really is. These songs could range from a very "left of center" Indie Pop, Alt Rock, Singer-Songwriter, etc. to a more obviously comedic lyrical/melodic approach. While the lyrics should be light and playful, they shouldn't be too specific in terms of story line or a progression of events. A universally fun tone should be the primary focus, lyrically and musically. The musical tone should be current-sounding and the performances must be excellent. Male or female vocals are just fine. This is a broadcast quality listing...I only have one song that is even relatively close to being fun and quirky. the part in yellow would worry me a bit.anyone think this tune would be worth submiting? Love for Freehttp://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_id=25007&stream=trueI would love to hear what others are submitting to this.please share.thanks,marc

Marc, this is a really cool song. It's hard for me to figure out exactly what kind of song would fit perfectly with this listing. If I were you I'd just submit it & see what happens.

Hmmm, I wonder if a quirky Christmas song would work here. I mean, most TV shows have a Christmas related show around that time of year...though I've been rejected with that sort of thinking before....

Thanks!Well... it's worth a shot. i was hoping that others would post their songs just to get a feel, no big shakes.dgnats, i have no idea if they would accept a x-mas tune for this, my guess would be no.very funny tune though, not sure if they would appreciate the F bomb as much as i do. good luck!after reading this through again, it looks like the range is pretty open, time to roll the dice!
