Does a “Lyric Only” submission require music?
No. We are seeking lyrics and poems to compete in the Song of the Year contest. Traditionally, song contests have focused on both music and words however we recognize the significance and power of lyrics and poems without the use of music. The literary art developed by lyricists and poets has continually influenced culture. We recognize the importance of this influence in society therefore we are allowing you to submit your poems or lyrics into this year’s Song of the Year Contest. Your lyrics or poems will be judged by a different criteria compared to the criteria used on musical compositions. The Song of the Year grand prize winner will receive $10,000 of cash and all winners in each category will have their material sent to an influential panel of judges. The lyric or poem winner will compete along side the music winners to determine the “Song of the Year”. The lyrics and poem winner will have an equal chance of winning the grand prize.
