TOP 20 IN CONTEST: I have just learned that my song "It Was Something She Said" made it into the "Top 20" in the 2005 Unisong International Songwriting Contest Jazz/Blues category. Not bad considering my song is obviously an instrumental and they seem to be biased to songs with lyrics. Oh well, I guess it
is a songwriting competition and not a composing competition. So I guess
it's pretty cool all the same! I'm happy...
