I'm in, although I can't promise anything new. If it's not a new one, I'll try to polish up an old recording. At the very least I'll throw one you've heard before in.

I'll try something. Question though: Fire - you proposed 4 parts (2 vocs, 2 guitars). Can we do an instrumental? And if so how many parts are allowed?

You said we can do: 2 tracks guitar, and two tracks vocals.
can we also do one track guitar, one drums, and one vocals,(3 tracks total) or is that getting away from the whole songwriting thing.

and aren;t there a few people here who say that whether a song is simple/complex/hard-to-play/easy is no indication of its musical value?

Stop getting so defensive FJ. By 'easier' I think tico means that by multitracking, one can concentrate on nailing the guitar parts and then the vocal parts separately (yielding a better final product) without needing the talent to put the two together.

Are you aguing that someone who sings awesome and plays awesome, but can't do the two together is equally as talented as someone that can sing and play just as awesome as the first guy, but can do them together? That's a tough one to sell, dude...

I'd be up for a single-track challenge, but not everyone (including me) has the equipment to produce a good recording of it. I can get good sound from my guitar and then vocals each as separate tracks, but to record them together I'd be relegated to using the PC mic.

one of the track should have vocal and guitar, I duno im just not a big fan of seperate vocal tracks. You should have to play something while you are signing like a live song.

agree or disagree, any thoughs??

(It shows more talent in my opinion)

yes, you can play better when you don't have to sing w/ it. skill comes when you can play well and sing at the same time. i mean if you're doing an instrumental obviously it'll be different, but i think for us who want to sing, we should get raw w/ it

i dont think it matters, if you can sing it, then you can sing it. either way the words are there

app is right. it's easier to sing or play than play and sing. just ask any of the MILLION posters here that ask for help on how to play and sing at the same time. I know lots of folks who can sing and can play guitar, but not simultaneously.
