Short Songs About Spielberg
A slight departure from our usual format as we strived to mix things UP by shortening them DOWN. All of these songs aspired to be 60 seconds long, some came about even shorter, some a tad longer. The format led to some really exciting compositions, and it would seem, a freer spirit than normal to be creative. The subject was chosen from a long list but seemed to be one that everyone could relate to. Thank you Spielberg for being our muse.
