This will be based on my hook line "The farm was made by man"

On the assignment , I view it like a sculptor. ometimes the artist has an idea what he wants to sculpt and looks for the right rock to work with. Other Sculptors start with the media and uncover the statue that is hidden inside.

This song will be about my Great-Great-Great Grandfather that migrated to Wisconsin when it was a territory.

The chorus is:

With an axe, fire and his two hands
He logged the forest and cleared the land
God made the trees and the rocks and the sand
But the farm was made, the farm was made, the farm was made by man.

I really like the direction that is going in.

Sounds a little like John Mellencamp to me.

That's a good thing.

Hi MrE. Nice chorus, but that isn't the assignment. Save that for later. Fill in all the random details you can about a topic or hook. No songwriting yet. :)

Work on this song will be halted. My creative processes don't work with the moderator's rules. As I said earlier, each sculptor finds his own statue.

Is that before, during or after his "Cougar" period?

Sigh...

The assignments are what they are. If you want to work on that song, just post it in the songwriter's forum, no harm, no foul. You'll get plenty of help on that there.

If you want to work on what everybody else is doing here, please join in. You are more than welcome. We just need to keep the focus on the topic at hand.

Thanks
