It's time to vote for our next two festivals which will run from November 1 to December 31. Voting starts now and runs for 5 days. You can change your vote any time until the closing of the poll on October 31. To do so, click "Remove vote" to cancel your previous vote, then vote again.

This poll is for the "Theme/Genre" festival. There is a separate poll for the "Artists/Covers" festival here:

https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=22102.0

Please vote in both polls.

As always, we encourage you to write an original song for the Theme/Genre festival, but covers are welcome too where appropriate.

First Line Fest - Post one (or several) opening lines and the challenge is to write a song using that opening line for your song..

JingleFest (advertising jingles) - Write an advertising jingle for any product or service; real or imagined. Or cover your favourite jingle.

MonkeyFest - Songs featuring monkeys.

Unusual Time Signatures - Songs in an unusual time signature (5/4, 7/8, etc.). Most popular songs are in 4/4, 3/4 or some derivative (8/8, 6/8, etc.). The idea of this fest is to record something that's not in those common time signatures.

AnatomyFest - Songs about body parts.

FunkFest - Funk music.

Songs about death - Self-explanatory. I can't think of anything to add.

Songs with words that don't rhyme - Pretty obvious. Write an original song where the words don't rhyme. Or do a cover of a song where the words don't rhyme, if you can find one (there probably aren't many).

Switched to monkey - in honour of your massive contribution to the Peel fest, which I have enjoyed immensely :-)

You've got a point Bruno, I've switched off the back of that argument (I was a Death voter, me all over).

26 alphabetized songs about monkeys, I'm looking forward to that :)
