Welcome To Challenge For All Stars...Where Everyone Who Sings Is A Star...

At the beginning of each challenge, the host will post a theme... You are asked to sing a song based on that theme... Plus there might be a Mini-Challenge and/or Duet Challenge..
This is NOT a Contest. It is simply a Challenge to sing a song based on a specific theme.

Depending on the wishes of the host, you might be asked to record a fresh track or perhaps post one from your archives...

Once you have recorded your song, just come and post the link on the board...

Requirement is that you LISTEN TO AND POST A COMMENT ON AT LEAST * THREE * SONGS OF YOUR FELLOW POSTERS... COMMENTS ARE ESSENTIAL... THIS IS WHAT TRULY DETERMINES A SUCCESSFUL CHALLENGE

The object of this challenge is to share songs and develop friendships.

JUST A REMINDER...Even though we are adults who sing and post on this board.. We do need to remember that we need to adhere to Sing Snap's Forum Rules... So please keep that in mind, especially when posting pictures...

http://www.singsnap.com/snap/forum/topic/a627922

Challenge for All Stars would like to clarify a few points regarding the Challenge, its Hosts, and the Themes posted by the Hosts. DUTIES OF THE HOST: The duties of the Host are to develop a Theme for the day's Challenge, to listen to and bookmark the songs posted to that day's Challenge, and to MODERATE the BOARD for anything that would go AGAINST the FORUM BOARD RULES as stated by SINGSNAP. The DUTIES OF THE HOST DO NOT include moderating any DISPUTES that may occur between adults who visit the challenge. We would hope that Challenge members remember that they are Adults and CONDUCT themselves as such. We back up our Hosts 100 percent as to the Themes they post to the board. We would also hope that visitors to our Challenge respect the hard work that our VOLUNTEER Hosts put in for this Challenge. THANK YOU....SING ON

Hey Carol, I am testing out the stereo and I recorded this song at 6:09 AM this morning, for the last challenge, but there was a mixing error and it took all day to finally save. I had never heard this song until about an hour before I recorded it, and it was so beautiful, I just had to try it. I hope you don't mind if I share it here. It gives me goose bumps.

Comments are like candy, you share it with your friend you'll get more, you keep it to yourself, people will get candy from somewhere else...I give out lots of candy, and I get some back....more and more people will notice who shares candy and who doesnt, something to think about....so "share your candy"

Thank you Pamela, I truly appreciated your comment, and all of the others. I'm pleased with the way it turned out. Every time I listen to it, it gives me chills. I've added photos of my mother at the bottom of the page.

Thanks again.
