2026 RPM Challenge idea number seven becomes finished song number 12. I'm not sure what to think of this one. I listen once and I think it's okay. I listen a second time and I think it's awful. The vocals are terrible, objectively, but everything…

I went to see the musical Hadestown last weekend and it was excellent I think a little of it rubbed off on me I've gone a tad theatrical with this one ...Reg was trying to be honest with his new conquest but she just wouldn't believe him she saw…

2026 RPM Challenge song idea number 13 becomes finished song number five. Kind of indifferent to this one. It's not the worst thing I've ever done. The hook section has a nice pep to it, I guess. I'm thinking it should fade out. Maybe if…
