Put music to a lyric? Polished a rough demo? Fulfilled the collaboration of your dreams?
Then this is the thread for you!
I shall begin with the song that begun it all: 'Don't Let it Start this Way' now has a demo, courtesy of @ductapeguy (hosted by @tcelliott due to uploading issues at my end/my own impatience): http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36638
Found the vanished melody for "Coming To Meet". Strange DAW happenings...
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36979
"Feel My Love For You", lyrics-only by @Amanda West has now received a klaus-o-phonic treatment. It's a ballad with a whiff of 80's synth pads.

http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36868
I gave a musical treatment to these wonderful words by @kahlo2013.
so @crisp1 wrote a lyric, and I set it to music and recorded... here it is
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37076
Here's the first of 10 demos for the lyrics I posted this weekend. Music in the Air http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37110
And the next one: Yup, That's Me. http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37106
If You See Me Smiling, a skirmish lyric from the weekend, now has 1940s styled music...
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36956
I found a nice combo of telecaster and glockenspiel to accompany my skirmish lyrics to HOPE. http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36878

Musicated this fun lyric I did in a skirmish http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36998
I managed to musicate 3 sets of lyrics today:
Good Old Days: http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37074
Old Cedar Table: http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36864
and
99th Second Chance: http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36984
This leaves me with just 3 and a half sets of lyrics I need to add music to.
There is now a demo for Sapphire Life (prev called "Was It All True" and lyrics only) - a collaboration with Michelle Lockey, who isn't in 50/90
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37133
Just put up the demo for "Dark Clouds" performed and recorded by @helen
(prev a lyric only song).
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37098
And here's another one
SWG took my lyrics and created this rough draft of the song.
This time a collab with @Steven Wesley Guiles, "Don't Rock My World". Steven and I are the Future Kings Of Denmark, and this, I suspect, will be out next release
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37165
Just put up my version of @crisp1's lyrics "Big Bang".
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37524
And another
This time @coreystewart asked to use my lyric "The Moon Over Galway Bay", and the demo is defo one of my favs 
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37539
I was not at all satisfied with the track I made for Sunday's skirmish. I have worked on it some more. All the elements of the original track remain in some form. New elements have been added along with more production work.
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37530
Song, musicated, but then -- remade again, due to an idea from feedback-comment suggesting it if could be done:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37600
Musickated one of my 1st weekend skirmish lyrics:
Pretty little picture: http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/36935
Had some banjo fun with these wonderful words by @cindyrella:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37442

http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37664
Musicated prior lyrics:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37739
The lyric "Endless Thoughts" now has a demo added to it, courtesy of the inimitable Mr @metalfoot
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37797
Formerly lyrics only, now musicated:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37936
@coreystewart just musicated my lyrics to "Funk in Da Heat", so you best get your dancing shoes on
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37804
I unexpectedly got time to actually "record" this (learn it
hahhh!), so replaces the, literally :), "record while writing" track I had (since all I could do and got the idea across, it seems).
So, this better sonically explains my thoughts, song #37936 again:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37936
I NEVER sing and we all know I cannot write music, but a melody came to me...and I recorded it. And then I re-recorded it and that re-recorded version is up. Just keep in mind I am not a singer or a musician when you listen
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37962
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37963
Another song born of a lyric post, again with @coreystewart. I am so chuffed with his musication !
Sea Breeze Drifting was from last Sunday's skirmish. I have extended, refined and remixed it.
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37930
Former lyric-only, now musicated, "Ignorance Like", re-titled "Ignor-ance-like":
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38063
Tidying up all my ones without music. They now do

And a new FKOD song is born http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38092. With @Steven Wesley Guiles
Previously lyric only.
Hi everybody, I had a lyrics only song...the only one on my page. I made an audio demo for that song today. I would appreciate it if you check it out. Thank you so much!
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37541
Today @metalfoot added some wonderful music to my lyric only song, something fishy. Check it out. http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38133
P.S. to @swordsmith I wrote a song set in Wellington NZ. The ball is in your court to write one set in Midland, Ontario or Morden, Manitoba.
Worked up a guitar/banjo/vocal treatment of this one by @cindyrella:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37931
Our second collab this 50/90 - her words are made for the kind of music I make!
And another one, this time for words by @srcoops:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38233
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38367
my musification of a lyric by @kahlo2013:
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37615
I turned the heat down a little on this mix with DD, which was distorting something terrible.
For those who waited for it;
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37469
'On My Way Up' with @coreystewart http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38564
previously lyrics only, now musicated
Not an updated demo, but a very lo-fi music video for a 50/90 song from this year: https://youtu.be/3edomlbdCoM
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/39119
Great demo by TC!
So today I did some additional recording/overdubs on four of my songs here (and recorded a fifth)
the ones that have additional material in the demos that are posted (harmonica overdub, and/or background vocals, etc)
include:
"My biggest fear"
"Irving, Sam & Dave"
"July 6, 1957"
"Fred Mertz Blues"
Here's a little ditty based on @Kristi 's lyrics.
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/39222
My previously lyric only song now has a full demo by the Future Kings Of Denmark
'Kissed By Your Hell' http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/38822 ty @Steven Wesley Guiles
Another previously lyric only song has now been musicated. This time some eclectic funky soul cat rap (new genre) 'I'm A True Blue Cat' with @coreystewart http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/39286
Another fun set of words by @cindyrella - I rocked out to them!
http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/song/37518
This thread seems like a good place to hang around and do some commenting later. Often, updated songs don't get the listens they deserve.
Two collabs in a day! This time it's with country poet @Kingwood Kowboy:
