I am putting up 10 more song commisions for sale —- —- —- I love writing songs - i love finding new reasons to write songs- I will write you a custom song- last month I put up 10 song commissions up for sale and it was a blast - did your baby leave you last week? I will write them a song begging them to take you back! Did you run over the neighbors cat? I will apologize for dear ole Fluffy’s demise! Is it Grandpa’s birthday? I will write him his own personalized 87th birthday song - it might be a short song - it might be a bad song - it might be a sad song but you get to send me a couple paragraphs telling me what you want and I will create an acoustic demo here on my couch in Nashville and 100% money back guarantee if you dont like the song. Only 10 available for now. You will have the song in 3 weeks or less. Songs are for your own personal use at home or with friends but not for the World Wide Web and i retain all rights to the composition. But if it’s good it might end up on my next album and you can brag about being the inspiration for the song! I have recently been commissioned to write songs about people who have died, people who cheat at board games, people starting a band, a song for someone’s daughter to dance to at their wedding, a banana plant in a romantic relationship with a rhubarb plant, and a middle-aged woman’s boots. If you want handwritten lyrics you can send me your address and an extra $100. If you want me to put your lyrics or poem to my music that will cost double because singing other peoples words feels like poison in my mouth………….sorry— click the link tree above or go to bobbybarejr.com to find the PayPal link /ncp/payment/U5FA72FB5JWM2

Thank you, thank you Chicago and Fitzgerald‘s! last night was a wonderful evening. Everybody was so enthusiastic and it was great to see so many old friends.

This is fun. Songwriting is fun! thank you thank you to everybody who commissioned a song this week. They’re almost gone ( I chose only do 10 to start with) and I’ve already sent out quite a few finished compositions. I’m really surprised at the strange requests people have….. songs for pets and dead people and board games and wedding dances and stuff I never even imagined. But I’m imagining it now because I’ve been writing songs about it. If anybody wants me to write them a song go - click my link tree above or go to /ncp/payment/U5FA72FB5JWM2 ———-$200 for an original composition
