[NEW SONG TITLE] by [songwriter]
1. [potency thoughts]
2. [power thoughts]
3. [participation thoughts]
4. [publically-known thoughts]
NOTES : [additional thoughts, pleas for comments, etc.]
Hi, Everyone--Our team/blog has been silent for a few weeks (except for Marlene's new post---thanks Marlene---that could be a great resource) due to some uncertainty about how this all works.
We are still hoping for your involvement and input, so please don't give up on us. As soon as we figure it out, we will have a get-together and discuss and explain, and have time for questions and even demonstrations!
In the meantime, keep your ears out for good music and feel free to post.
We'll be in touch! Thanks everyone---Nancy

The NewSongs Blog is a place for YOU to provide input for music on Sundays. Listen to the iMeem playlist that's embedded - a collection of songs being considered. Anyone is free to comment on NewSong ideas that have been posted. When enough positive comments have been made on a particular song it will be added to the iMeem playlist. Additional song suggestions must be posted as a Blog Entry by a NewSongs team member OR through Nancy Jones (gorillajones@comcast.net), team leader.
Criteria for NewSongs
1. POTENCY of the lyric - how true, relevant, and poignant is the text of the song?
2. POWER of the music - how gripping is the recording, the instrumentation ... is it something we want to mimic?
3. PARTICIPATION for the congregation singing - Is the song catchy, hummable, and in a vocal range that works for the average person? (If not the song can still be suggested, but marked as a "special music" potential).
4. PUBLICALLY-KNOWN - is the song recognized by folks that listen to local christian radio, to online streaming (like pandora), or that buy CD's ...?
