THREAD CLOSED - THANKS - LEE JOHNSON AND I HAVE SOMETHING FOR THISWanna collab on this song for the HOMELESS Taxi listing (below)?I am not a taxi member, so you would have to submit it for us. But I'll submit it to other places. See the lyric (below) that fits the listing. I've always liked the words a lot. Tempo (I hear it mid to uptempo) and theme are right. The words fit the homeless person's situation perfectly AND they also fit us (the viewers), as many of us are one fatal step from being in the same predicament. We are all FRAGILE.If you wanna try it, PM me.Dean---------------------------------------------NEW LISTING -- SONGS THAT SPEAK of socio-economic distress (loss of jobs, homelessness, addiction, failure of government agencies, armed service benefit breakdown, mental instability, fate and challenges that lead to one losing their home/family/dignity) are sought by a Music Publisher with tons of film/TV placements for a cable network series featuring music that will be performed by homeless musicians. Lyrical focus should be on the above mentioned themes, yet he's open to all musical styles. Any tempo is okay, but mid to uptempo songs are preferable. Great performances are a must. His deal is very simple -- he splits the license fee with you 40/60 [that 60% is for you] and he doesn't take any publishing. The company's president will screen the submissions. Great recording quality is a plus, but excellent home recordings will work. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS ONLY -- NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than Feb. 20, 2008.TAXI # Y080220HN---------------------------------------------------------------------

Anybody know if this listing really requires broadcast quality submissions? It says so, but it also says the show features music that will be performed by homeless musicians. So maybe that means our song would be re-recorded by homeless musicians???

I contacted TAXI about this one last week and she said that the songs WILL be performed by homeless musicians; not sure if they will be recording or not, but your basically just pitching songs to them for them to cover, so I don't think the sound quality is as important as song quality.
