Project Runway + Songwriting = SQUEE

Jun 20, 2011 00:56

OMG THERE IS A PROJECT RUNWAY SHOW FOR SONGWRITERS!!!

I CANNOT EVEN--I HAVE NOT EVEN SEEN IT YET BUT I AM STAYING UP WAY PAST MY BEDTIME TO SEE EPISODE ONE.

OMFG. SONGWRITING! <3<3<3

To learn more about this [hopefully utterly squee-worthy] show, check out Platinum Hit on Bravo's web site.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a show to watch. *__*

I am increasingly curious about this show. I'm debating whether to give in now or wait a few weeks and watch a good chunk of this season all at once.

Episode 4 airs tonight, so a chunk of 3 and then the 4th on TV is still a chunk.

Not sure how many episodes there'll be, but they started with 12 contestants, and by the end of episode 4 they should have 8 left (unless they boot 2 on ep3, which I've not seen yet, and do the same on ep4).

OMG PLEASE WATCH THIS SHOW!

Also, I wrote my song for today! ^_^ Have you had a chance to write?

ALSO: I need to email you RE: Artist's Way. And perhaps starting today, to make AW and our 90 day challenges line up.

I suck SO bad at writing lyrics and tunes for a song. I can do some great spoofs from existing songs but that's about it.

Filk is awesome fun! ^_^

So to clarify for me: You enjoy writing filk lyrics, but not music?

I wonder whether you'd enjoy writing lyrics to pre-existing music, as there are famous precedents for such lyricist/composer collaborations...

I'm totally watching, since songs bleed out of me every so often.

Completely unrelated, an actual thought I had earlier this morning: "Y'know, I'm having enough trouble getting this story out. Maybe I should just script it. That's probably what newtypeshadow would do..."

WIN! I'm head-over-heels for the show, faults and all--and tonight Bravo airs episode 5! *excited*

(Oh, do you have a place to download Platinum Hit songs and episodes? I do, if you don't and would like a link.)

Wow, that's the coolest thing I've heard all day! ^___^ (Also true the day I found your reply in my inbox; sorry for responding so slowly! >_<) As one of your shoulder-writing-angels, I am proud of you for coming up with a way to write that would allow you to stress less about getting the story out perfectly, and instead to just get it down. How's the story going? Have you had a chance to get at least some of it down since your comment? *hopes yes*
