Well, I'm not a resident of the U.S., so I don't qualify... but for those of you with an American Idol type song and $10 burning in your pockets, you have until Monday, March 31, 2008 to upload your song to the American Idol Songwriter competition website for a chance to have this season's final two contestants battle it out of your song...
Of course, the competition is not without controversy as detailed in this web post entitled the American Idol Rip-Off. The post contends that last year's songwriter competition for American Idol had 20 finalists, 10 of whom were "pros" who had previous relationships with Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul, show bandleader Rickey Minor or host Ryan Seacrest.
Ah well... I guess looking at the glass as a half-full kind of guy, 10 amateur songwriters had a shot at winning that competition... I hope this year, that's what will happen...
