Taming the World--for now
I know that this is early but by midnight April 1st you will need to have a lot done. The Challenge for April is far more universal. You must write a song (any genre) in the third person. For those of you who slept through high school English (Like 
me!) think in terms of “She loves you” "He loves her" etc. No "I, me, mine".
Additionally, many times people (myself included) have a hard time seeing how the meter of a written lyric fits the melody. To make that easier for everyone this month you should TRY to record and post it somewhere in RAW form for the rest of us to listen. This should be an entirely new song in keeping with the intent (Growth as writers!) of the Challenges but everyone is on the honor system. I understand that the recording portion makes it a bit cumbersome for those without the facilities to do so. You may still enter the Challenge without a recording. I would simply encourage everyone to TRY to post a recording of the song somewhere in some raw form. Don’t get too involved recording because then it becomes difficult to take suggestions and use them for rewriting/changing.
You have 21 days give or take your location in regard to the International Dateline. I look forward to reading and hearing your entries.
BTW-By participating each month, everyone should have 12 songs they could use for an album by next February.
