brokedown melodies

It’s not that I don’t love you, it’s the fact that in the last 5 weeks I have been busier with work than I have been in years. That’s a good thing, for me. Not so much for you.

Quick notes to all who have contacted:

• The links to all of the 24 Days songs were set to expire after one month. Some day when I get the opportunity I will re-up them and send out new links.
• Thanks to the suggestions for new artists to add. I will listen to your stuff and then bring it before the committee. Just not today.
• There have been several tab requests, any help would be appreciated - Numbers by G. Love, Orange Whip Groove, Zach Ashton tabs are just some off the top of my head.
• Jack - Feel free to send in your version of Banana Pancakes and I’ll get it posted with the others. Thanks for the offer.

Anything else good worth discussing?

The Management

So close, I can hear the sleigh now. Hope you have enjoyed the tracks. I’ll find one more for tomorrow but can’t guarantee it will be good. Or I might just Rick-roll you instead. Guess you’ll have to check back to find out.

And to all those who celebrate holidays other than Christmas, Happy Holidays to you, I just don’t have any Hanukkah or Kwanzaa music to share.

Made it just in time to call this a day 21 song. As far as I know, this is an original by BDM user and Best Cover contest winner, Andrew Whitman.

We’re 75% of the way through our 24 days and just hoping we’ve got enough good Christmas music to make it. Otherwise you’ll be stuck with Elvis’ Blue Christmas and/or John Denver & the Muppets.

The day 18 entry is another submission from a faithful BDM user. Good on ya, Steve. Upon hearing it though I had to wonder, am I the only person on the planet that didn’t know Lisa Loeb was still making music?

Artist: Lisa Loeb
Song: Jingle Bells
