This will be the first contest hosted by #100-songs!
So, let's get down to business.
So, the theme of this contest is you pick one song, and then create a piece of art of any medium (lit included!) to express what the song means to you.
Judging will be done by all of the admins at #100-songs
Your work will be judged by how well you communicate to the viewer what the song means to you.
NOTE! These are the prizes as of 1/22/10! Check back at this blog entry to keep up-to-date!

AutophobiaAlice opened her eyes wide, suddenly awake. Odd, she didn't usually wake up so suddenly or so completely right away. But her body was stiff with tense muscles and her breath was heavy with a pounding heart. Adrenaline was burning like scalding coffee in her chest, creating a strange feeling. It was like useless terror overshadowed by triumph, and it was already fading into the recesses of her mind as whatever dream she had been having faded away.
After throwing off the covers she walked into the bathroom adjacent to her bedroom. She flipped on the light switch and took a quick shower. As she started to blow dry her hair, her eyes sudde

AnguishI keep pushing myself.:thumb148141799:
The bass is making my ears bleed,
Hips churning to the snare and hi-hats,
My spine feels like it is going to snap,
If I don't heed this sound and just dance.
I say a prayer to my absent God,
Throwing myself headlong into reality

I can't make myself move off-kilter to the bass line
The kick drum throbbing in my heart
Pulsing my feet





A Time In-BetweenToday I was driving down the road
Snow gently started falling on my windshield
My favorite song came on
I turned it up daringly loud
And sang without abandon
To me it was a song
Of growing up and loosing innocence
It was sweet and carefree
But sad at the same time
I can't help but smile
It reminds me of my life before
The life out of this small town
With friends and family in college
Dancing on Friday nights
Studying over pizza on Sunday nights
I had to leave that life behind
Abandon my dreams to the wayside
Work two jobs at home
In this small town
To support my family
Here I realized I am back at the in-between
