1.2 million dollars..... was the price paid by a private US collector for John Lennons original hand written manuscript of *A Day In A Life*. The last song on the Beatles album *Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band*. It was written in blue ink, black felt pen and had correction made in red ink.

This only goes to show ---if you write a song, even if it's on a napkin, save it! It could be worth a little something in the future.

And who was it on these forums that said lyrics were the least important part of a song and were meaningless...of no real value... :D
 
Bare Naked Ladies, recorded originally released in... crap... 1992 or 1993, I forget. Anyway, it was one of their first tunes actually.
 
Next time Obama or even better still, some visiting foreign Pope {not Iggy Pope though}, prime minister or president is in town, just pelt them with eggs, tomatoes and dead rats (or live ones if you can catch them) and as you're led away by the po-po let it be known you write songs. When you emerge from incarceration, if Christies and Sothebys aren't falling over you for handwritten manuscripts of your songs.........



























....then it would all have been a waste of your time ! :spank:
