Congrats on the forward and welcome to the forums! Would love to hear the song. What listing was it for?- Big Blue
Imagine a steel cage match between Daughtry, Coldplay, Paramore and Demon Hunter with Joe Satriani as the referee...

Thanks. Everybody here is so helpful and I'm glad to be a part of you guys. I would love to post our songs so people could listen to them but I have cowriters, one of which has been burned real bad in the past. He has three songs on one album that sold 750,000 copies and those songs were stolen from him. It's being investigated now. But maybe I can talk him into it. The listing was this one.S090304COCONTEMPORARY COUNTRY SONGS are sought by a well connected, growing Indie label. The label needs very commercial, well crafted material that's "radio friendly" and might work well for their stable of well known artists. The label will be picky as most of their artists write their own material. So send in your best stuff! Stylistically, think material ranging from Brad Paisley's contemporary side through to the contemporary cross over style of artists like Keith Urban and Rascal Flatts. The most important thing is that the songs sound commercial and create emotional impact. All tempos will be considered. Please submit 1-3 songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI and must be received no later than March 4, 2009. TAXI #S090304CO

Getting a country forward through Taxi is no small feat, so congratulations!! Real easy to copyright things on-line these days through the Copyright Office so you might want to do that. I've been told it's only amateurs who do that, but I kind of think that if you're hanging them on web page it's probably a good idea. You can copyright a bunch of songs as a collection, so I do three or four at a time. Total cost = $35.00Cam
