Here's another attempt.  I'm posting the first verse.  Feel free to add a verse of your own. 

BTW - this is a happy, upbeat tune that has been partially written that I'm pairing with a reel or a jig so please keep that mind while writing!  Just a wee case of writer's block, so maybe you can help jog me out of it!

Here goes!

"One"

One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.

Your turn!

How about:

"One cloud can rouse the Thunder
One drop can start the rain
  One note can bring the chorus
  Now Everybody sing!"

(insert cool chorus here Smiley

One kiss can leave you breathless
One love can light your way

Waking with music in your head?  What an incredible way to start the day!   Grin

Lovin' the verse ideas so far ladies... 

Here's another one from me....

One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.


Now I just need a chorus... hmmmm....   Kiss

i ALWAYS wake up with music in my head....just not usually original

here's one from my drive in today....

one child can have a vision
one man can make a stand
one voice can make a difference
one band can ROCK THIS LAND

good luck on the chorus, by they way---i have a "list" of 100 things i want to do (if i haven't already told you about it i'll tell ya later) and one of the things is to write a song

OOOOO - I like that one.  This is shaping up to be a cool song! Smiley  I'll have to try and get it straightened out before I go on the road trip with the boys tomorrow to the Pub to see if I can get it semi-functional.  This could be a great little tune!

since most of the lines have "one" and "can"....you could call it "One CAN", sorta putting a positive spin on it?!?   can't wait to hear it

Linda won't be at the pub tomorrow night so i'm planning on bringing my friend Karen (we'll try to get there VERY early and nab one of the tables near the door for merch)   see ya then

Only you - Brad!  You about deserve to be "smited" for that one!  As if I would write a song called "Nice Cans"   Shocked 

Mmmm, nu-uh.  Lips Sealed

Going back to the original spirit of this thread....

Got most everything put together for this song - but I'm not sure about a chorus.  Brad - whaddya think?  Stick with the One Can theme - or abandon it completely?  The bridge has the same theme going so I'm not sure what I want to do.  Or just an instrumental chorus?  I'm thinking of pairing this song with the funky fiddle riff that we recorded back in January but haven't found anything to do with it yet.

Sorry to take so long to get back to this - but with the live CD and all - pretty much have been concentrating on that (and learning Brad's new songs for festival season!).

Ideas from my favorite creative people?  (you know who you are...)

ONE SPARK....I love hearing it.   Thanks for playing it both nights at the pub.  I think the crowd was "in to it" as well....I saw lot's of heads bobbing and they clapped!  Now I have to learn ALL the verses and in the correct order.  BTW, I like the title "One Spark" much better than "One Can".    :Di

One woman can spark the feeling

That sends a man a realing

To the man this seems appealing

Only to realize, it is "Gas" he is feeling
