Really need YOUR help.
A song of mine has made the last fifty in a BBC song competition which the great Terry Wogan has lent his name to, namely Oldie Composers. A competition for songwriters who are a bit long in the tooth.
Voting for me costs nothing and my song is number 38 on this page.

You can only vote once.
If you are consumed with interest to find the nature of a song that confers such greatness, you will find it here.

Remember folks this is the one that could catapult us all to stardom!

Done.

Also, it's not at all surprising that you'd be involved somehow helping kids. Best to you, Al.

Al, you have such amazing talent and heart- both as a songwriter and as a musician - one of the very best among the songwriters and musicians that frequent Mudcat - and that is saying something.

You got three votes from my three e-mail addresses.

I had a good listen of them -
you've got my vote too and my favourite historical good cause receives some benefits along the way -
GREAT combination.
Congratulations Al.

Done -- although I feel a little guilty voting for your song without listening to all of the others (I did listen to about 30 of 'em -- not all of 'em to the end, though! A few were also very good, but after listening to most of the others, I really appreciated how well-crafted yours is...)

Congrats on making it to the top 50 (no mean feat in itself, I assume) and good luck!

Done. Tasty pickin' by the way, and tasteful harmonics. Chord changes remind me of Lennon/McCartney/Harrison. Great job, hope you win.

Done, VERY GOOD SONG!

Though like the previous poster I didn't listen to many of the others,so it's probably going to be a question of who can get all their matesand facebook friends to vote - might have been better to get a panel to reduce it to around half a dozen then go over to the public vote.
