I think i am just about done. Ended up changing one or 3 things. Was going to submit one with vocals.. and one without as an instrumental. But ive gotten over myself. Will be submitting a single anthem. Had fun with this one. Looking forward to hearing all the entries

Mine is currently at the producer. I've only kept mine to 2 minutes. Seems to be a good time to do something between work and stuff.

Don't we all see real life playing out at a pub or bar, where we perform and see the effects of alcohol and lust?
So an anthem to those hoping for the one night stand. A perilous journey.
There are elements of the Eagles, Gilmour and Knopfler in this song from a chords perspective. I can only commend Bevan and Claudio for collaborating via e-mail with their own interpretations of sung and lead versions. Cudo's and respect guys. Without you this song would have stayed in the scrap bin.
Buskers Anthem
A lekker feel sorry for myself song. The only thing between me and some singing recognition is definitely my flat voice. The verse and chorus are separated between second and first person. So even a sidewalk ten cents offer will be recognition enough...
The lyrics came to mind in the shower, seven minutes to capture the lyrics on the cell phone notes. Seven hours later and a redo, the result. In recognition to those brave enough for sidewalk gigs.
Stoffeltoo I like the Buskers Anthem. So sad, so lonely.
First off, I have zero time to do any more work on this song. Work is hectic and I stole an hour to record this on Monday night. Guitar and vocals into Stagelight on Android and then transferred to reaper. Added limiter and a bit of reverb. My Ibby was out for the count on this one so I used the old Stagg. The song is quite long for which I appologise, but give it a listen and let me know what you think.
It’s not exactly an anthem, but its why I play guitar and sing. The song does take a stab at the ‘popular’ songs that mean absolutely nothing and has no depth. You know the type I’m sure. By the way, it’s an Afrikaans song…
The way I approached this was exactly how I would have loved to perform it one day. Imagine a guy on stage with no band, no backing tracks, no light effects and no sound altering. What you see is what you get. Simple, raw and full of emotion. Making music for the sake of inspiring people, to awaken emotion and thought. Not just another doef doef…. ? Hope you enjoy.
Nice bud. Your acoustic sounds great. Well done.
That's me! Went for pure guitar and vocal, keeping it simple for my first Guitar Talk competition lol
That was fun thanks, haven't composed in a while and I feel like this song represents me because I have come through some pretty tough emotional times in my life (like us all) and have chosen that no matter what, I believe in my dreams and obviously in the Power Of Love. Thanks for the opportunity to create for an audience! Have fun guys
Jis Wern. Awesome song! Waarlik 'n lied vir oorspronklike harts Afrikaans.
The vocals and acoustic just fantastic!
Hi Mijeala, your entry shows link shows but nada on Soundcloud. It shows not available. Would you mind reposting please?

Sjoe! Well done to the early birds, great entries! ? ? ? - I'm thinking we'll be getting a wide range of genre's for this one?
Took forever, but I'm hoping that I've finally settled on a arrangement,...(still loads to do though).
I'm struggling, not sure if I'm making this one...
Good entries so far!
