Best thing I ever did was sign up for that--14 songs in 28 days, and I've done 11 of them so far. All of my songs have been 100% BIAB, plus my vocals and lyrics.

Feet up on the dashboard, I am such a lucky man. I reach across to light The cigarette that's in her mouth. Both hands on the wheel again, I steer my pickup south. Gonna let this great adventure begin. RIDIN' WITH MY BABY RIDIN' WITH MY BABY Tired of the daily grind, Leave your worries all behind. Parked at our destination, I look at her, she smiles at me. Throws her cigarette out the window, Rolls it up, face full of glee. I roll mine up, turn the engine off. Lean across to steal a kiss. From the glove box, take my weapon. "Are you ready? Let's do this..." Gonna let this great adventure begin. RIDIN' WITH MY BABY RIDIN' WITH MY BABY Tired of the daily grind, Leave your worries all behind. HARMONICA SOLO On the country roads right after, Hearin' sirens at our backs. The canvas bag between us, As we jump the railroad tracks. Around the bend, I let her out, She takes the bag and runs. "We'll meet up soon again--I promise. Guess we're not the Lucky Ones..." Gonna let this great adventure begin. RIDIN' WITH MY BABY RIDIN' WITH MY BABY Tired of the daily grind, Leave your worries all behind. © Jerry Pettit, 2017

I guess it's designed so that you can write one song in every two days and hit the goal. I signed up for that a few years back.... and by the end of February.... I had written zero songs for it. Based on that experience I figured why bother in the ensuing years. But yes, I do understand the concept of writing all the time which is what this encourages. You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Marty, I'm a big cheater. I used Melodyne for the harmonies. What a great program! Between BIAB and Melodyne you can do almost anything!
