Haha! I 'm thinking this might be right up your alley, Kathy.
I miss the chat around here... What's everybody thinking of this challenge? Who's in?
God, there are so many song possibilities. |

“What Should I Do?” “I Love Rock n Roll” but...”I’m A Little More Country Than That”. “I Have Nothing” but I do have “High Hopes” that “I’ll Think Of Something”. Feeling “Sorry” for myself. So I might as well go on down to “Margaritaville” because “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” and “Tears In My Beer” is better than “Nothing In My Head", but “Tomorrow’s Another Day”. “I Hope You Understand”. “Sincerely”, “Your Truly” P.S. Sorry, “I Couldn’t Help Myself” |
I laughed so hard I had "Tears on My Pillow." |
| ...in no particular order |

I'm thinking of entering. Already wrote the script but not sure how I feel about it. I've had the idea for the longest time about this specific song and now's my opportunity, I suppose.
Stay Spooked!

Love the challenge. Not restrictive but picking a song is giving some great inspiration to write. Really like the low page count as well. If work is not too busy this week, I should be in |

Steven's out of the gate, fast as usual. Sean too. The hard part's done, so, yes you must! Matt's a time permitting. So many songs to chose from... Song-writers are for the most part a gloomy lot (cathartic) I've discovered. Oh, the heartbreak. |

I won’t have time for this one with work and everything, and I don’t want to half-ass it like I did in August by writing something in the last two hours of the challenge. Hope everyone has fun |

Because I “Can’t Help Myself” (Four Tops) so “Get On Board” (Kevin Simon) the “Party Train” (The Gap Band). “Don’t Make Me Hurt You” (Young Buck). “I’ll Be Back” (The Beatles) if y’all don’t “Respond” (Travis Green). |

I'm currently lost in a hole of a million song titles, sure one will resonate eventually...

Ditto to that (re Kathy's comment). And Ant, same here. So many songs, so little time. |

I can't decide on the ending... I've rewritten it 5 times already. Happy clappy or melancholy? And now I hear other songs and they are calling to me to write about them... |

Matthew, I do know that sad endings are often a hit with OWC audiences. That said, who doesn't love a happy ending. Sorry, I'm no help really. |
