Public Alpha: have suggestions or feedback?
The Women’s Freedom Song Contest is looking for the best song for Women’s Day March 8, 2010, to be sung by women all around the world at the same time, on the same day.
According to the site womensfreedomsong.com:
This is a groundbreaking event in the history of women’s fight for freedom and equality throughout the ages. Imagine the world echoing with the voices of women everywhere singing to demonstrate their unity. Surely we will be heard up to the heavens! And if the men folk want to join in, they are welcome too! Just start practicing your harmonies!
This song should express in universal terms the power and beauty women have to offer — an anthem to celebrate women. We are not looking for some dry political song but rather an enchanting and universal song that has a great and easy to remember melody and simple but powerful lyrics.
It can be part chant, part hymn, folk song, pop song, jazz, rock, etc., — any genre as long as it gets the point across and you can picture women singing it across the world in unison.
The winning song will be sold as a single around the world and available for download on iTunes and other media outlets. 25% of the profits will be sent to our favorite women’s charity of choice (TBA). Celebrity singer will be (TBA).

Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible.
