Video first, text a bit later...
Remember, no videos before midnight Hawaii time!
No, I didn't accidentially post the wrong video...
I don't do how-to videos, it just starts with a practical joke.
So the theme is pretty simple:
A beverage must be a central element of the lyrics. It doesn't need to be in the title, allthough it probably often will be, but the more prominent in the song it is the better. The beverage may be hard or soft, hot or cold.
Searching through old seasons to see what had allready been taken, I found a theme about alcohol, and one about tea and coffey, but those were a long time ago, and this is a bit broader.
If you pick hard drinks, please pick songs with references to particular beverages, not just "alcohol".
Being inventive and picking beverages that are less common in songs will give bonus points. Off course the bonus points are not worth anything, but still.
The song limit is a bit stricter than usual:
I will make three playlists, and you may only make one entry for each:
- Covers
- Original songs
- Renditions or parodies of Kelis "Milkshake"
I figure that this is a light theme to write original songs for, and hopefully that will make more people explore songwriting. It doesn't need to be deep and thoughfull, a praise to your favorite beverage can easily be put to a common chord progression.
For those who like to do many songs I apologize for the strict limit, but I like to make it possible for as many seasonistas as possible to get through listening to them all. When not hosting I sometimes give up half way on busy weeks with lot of work and many entries, and I am not proud of that.
So listen to as many songs as you can!
Prizes:
The prizes will be ukulele novelty mugs to hold your favorite beverage!
I will make some shortlists based on random and unfair terms, and draw a winner from each. There will be 5 winners, so the shortlists might not follow the playlists. Or some might. It will be unfair!
Basic rules:
The usual rules apply.
Only new videos,
the must say that they are for this seasons,
ukulele must be a central instrument,
season starts January 8 th. Hawaii time and ends 8 days later.
