Connections. Your song needs to have a connection, however tenuous, to this song, or any of the songs that follow it. So, as more songs are posted, more opportunities for connections will appear. You need to explain the connection, however convoluted it is.
For example, if the first song were “Life On Mars” by David Bowie, you could follow with a clear connection....another song by Bowie, or you could think, well, Rick Wakeman played piano on “Life On Mars” and play a song by Yes. The lyrics mention Mickey Mouse, so you could play a Disney song, or explore the rodent connection by playing The Boomtown Rats. So you can connect by the artist, the song’s lyric, the song’s subject matter, the personnel who played on, or produced the record, the date they recorded it, what they had for lunch on the day they recorded it, it’s all good.
Just to be clear, your start song is Bye Bye Baby, not Life On Mars
Let your minds be free to find connections where they will.
Don’t worry if you post a song and the one you are connecting it to isn’t the previous song, it doesn’t matter. You could be posting a song on Friday that connects with a song done on Monday. It would be very difficult to do linear connections anyway, so tangents and convoluted links are where it’s at baby! Have fun. If you think it’s right, that’s good enough for me.
Season Starts when 00.00 Sunday Hawaiian time rolls round, and finishes 23.59 Hawaiian time next Sunday.
You will need to state which of the previous songs you are connecting to, and what your connection with your song is. As I say, obvious or obscure, and all points in between.
Your video should state it’s for Season 382, be newly recorded for the Season and feature the ukulele as main instrument . Multitracking, collabs are all fine.
Originals are welcome so long as there is a connection somewhere.
There will be a prize/prizes though I have no idea what they will be yet, or how I will choose the winners.
Three song per day limit to start with. Try to keep to it if you can. If you can’t, see my in my study after class for detention.
Don’t forget Ryan’s Doctor Season still has a day to go.
As Mufasa so wisely says, we are all connected in the great circle of life. So get connecting.
