Everyone's A Winner "Animal Kingdom" Challenge/Showcase Thingy CXXXII




This challenge is open to all. It runs from Tuesday, 17 November 2009 until 24 November 2009 at 6PM EDT.


I get to be da host for the week and I am excited!!


Joining me is my SAWEEET n Adorable  co-host  Sandysongbird <----look, she's an animal, Lets Make her work hard keeping up with that playlist, I want lots of songs!!! 

 

 

PLEASE READ THE GUIDELINES AND THEME DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING.



PURPOSE - The purpose of the EAW Music Challenge is to encourage people to create and/or promote new music each week and to give them a forum to have their songs heard. There is no judging involved.

 

HOW IT WORKS - Every Tuesday at 6PM a topic featuring a new theme will be posted on this board. Those wishing to participate are invited to post links to their songs that match the theme. You may post a song with a link from any online music/singing site you belong to. Over the years a nice little community has sprung up around these challenges. We invite you to participate but be aware that here everyone is very supportive of each other. Amateurs and professionals are both welcome. You do not have to be a great singer to participate. No flaming is allowed on this board. This is not a contest. There is no judging. It is merely an opportunity to hear and be heard by others. You can post or merely listen and interact with the others who post here. Please follow the detailed guidelines which are posted below and at the top of each new challenge thread. Have fun!

 

CHALLENGE GUIDELINES -

 

1. Post links to ONE OR TWO songs that fit the theme. You may post a THIRD one on or after Thursday.  You may post a FOURTH song link on or after Saturday.  Your song can be a new song or one that was previously recorded.

 

2. For EACHname of your song. For easy instructions on how to HOT LINK and post your song title, click EAW FAQ.

 

7. Please do not post glitter or large graphics as feedback or in the thread. Please keep to the standard font, size and color that is already provided - this helps prevent your songs and comments from getting lost in a sea of shifting fonts and colors. For your song title only, use 14pt font size and bold. This will help your song stand out. For more information on how to do this, check the EAW FAQ.

 

New challenge themes are announced every Tuesday at 6PM EDT.  This current challenge will run until Tuesday, November 24, 2009, 6PM EDT.

Hurray!!!  I thought I'd never have any occasion to ever post this one.  In my very best Jiminy Cricket voice. (Had to do it that way, or could never have hit the last note)

OK. Here's my only other animal song, also from Disney.  For those who don't remember, this one's from Dumbo.

Now, I'll just sit back and listen.  ;D

Oh Deb, I'm really sorry you're still poorly.  I'm afraid my middle daughter is not well today, in fact she's just been sick again  :(  So, it might be a virus Johanna had and I had a wee taste of but didn't really get too bad.

Hope you feel better soon!

I'm off for a wee while to keep her company and will check back in a little later :)

I'm gonna get this gal to come join the group if I have to go to England and personally pull her kicking and screaming.  She's still shy.  Perhaps if we keep giving her comments, she'll come in.  In the meantime, I'm going to post another of her songs.  It's the only one in her library that fits this theme, being by a group named for an animal, The Eagles.

This is Suecaz and I think she's got a great voice. But, this is one of the worst MIDIs on RK.  So don't hold that against her.

You've all heard me singing in Italian, I'm going to try my hand at Spanish...This song was written in 1860 and it's been suggested that it's the most recorded song in History

La Paloma (The Dove)

BTW it's good to be back singing with this wonderful group of people.

Nice to have things back to normal will try and do a song for the challenge before it ends, and I like to welcome Nighthours to the challenge, as it turns out I have a recent one by the Beatles

I'm sure glad you all know how to move right along even if one of the hosts is missing in action :)  As before, I am having internet trouble and before I can get one song to load, I loose connection.  Hopefully tommorrow will be a better day for me.  thank you Sandy for holding down the fort.  Welcome to the new comers, I will make my rounds soon as I can.  Untill then, keep them songs coming.
