Two songs today. The first was a challenge song in the 50/90 Songwriting challenge. The challenge to write a 1 Chord song. This entire song is done in the key of E.

25. Love Me Tonight

The second song I wrote as a tribute to The 50/90 Challenge. Entitled The 50/90 Challenge, ha, ha.

26. The 50/90 Challenge

This is another challenge song. The challenge was to write a song either about city life or using city life in the title. I did a comparison of Country to City. I hope you can take the time to give it a listen. I did something new on this one. I used Automation on the Vocal. Let Me know what you think. Thanks.

27. That's The Difference In Country and City Life

Number 28 of the 50/90 Challenge. The way I wrote this one was a little different. I took a biab demo song in the style AG cross sped it up a little and then muted the melody and wrote the lyrics around the backing track. Here is the demo. All of the instruments are midi.

28. He Is Faithful To Me

Thanks Steve and Tommy for the feedback. I know now why they call it The 50/90 Challenge. It sure is challenging, but it sure is fun to.

Number 31 is in the books. It is in answer to a 2 instrument only challenge in the 50/90 challenge, it is piano and bass. I have been told by several of you here at the forum that I should try adding vocal harmonies. This is my 1st attempt at it. Low and High part.

31. Jesus Will Be There For You

In this song I use an alarm clock and phone message beep sound effect. Important Note: No phones or alarm clocks were harmed in the making of this song. The style is Med Rock Bal W Dire Electric Guitar. Bass=518 RD=Nashville ev8^1 SS, Ride. 362 Acoustic Strum Guitar and 508 Electric Rhythm Dire. The song was a little fast for the style, so in a few places the instruments sound like they could not walk a straight line if they were given a sobriety test ha, ha. This is song #34 in my quest for 50/90.

34. My Dream

Song 35 is a collaboration. The Lyrics are Geneva Griffin's, I did the music with Biab 2010.5 and the vocal. The piano and the strings are both midi. I created a hybrid style using Bach 1 classical piano style for the piano, and then the Orchestral 4/4 w Harp for the strings. Thanks!

35. I Drift In Peace

This song is in response to a challenge at the 50/90 site. The challenge was to take one of the suggested lyric lines and use it either as the title or as a line in the song. I chose to make it the title. The only real track used is the solo guitar.
