Sike the published songwriter? Believe it.
ok, ok...I know I may take some good natured ribbing about this...but hear me out
one of the best singer/songwriters I know (andrew osenga) recently did the coolest thing: He wrote a EP of six songs all based on on song suggestions from his fans. It took him less than month and now its here...well as you've probably guessed, I was blessed to be one of the fans who's suggestion was made into a song...and a dang fine song at that.
The EP is a free download (with a suggested donation via paypal...but hey free is free and it just might turn you onto one of the best things going on)
This guy needs love and you guys (who actually like great folksy artists) need to hear him so grab this free download..and see if you can guess which song is based on a line I wrote.
Go to www.ilikeandy.com and grab the free download and free virtual booklet to see amazing pics, the guitars he used, and the lyrics... It is worth your time guys.
the real sike

I always knew that Sike had to have some talent besides crash-testing flying saucers...
Hey, good job, buddy! So, which of the songs did you contribute to?

These songs are actually really good, you said you wrote "Swing Wide the Glimmering Gates"? It's probably my favorite actually haha

I didn't write any of the music for the track, but the song was inspired by a poem I wrote...its mostly him...but I can't tell you how cool it is to be able to say that my favorite singer/songwriter wrote a song that I suggested.

Nashty, it'd be like Barbara Streisand writing a song based on one of the poems that you wrote.
