You Filthy Beats
A warning, do not read this if you are easily offended by sexual references. These may be your favourite bands and you may be surprised to find out what their name actually refers to. Although I will submit this to the Vocal Beat Community, it could possibly go in Filthy too. Although hopefully, most people will find this amusing on an almost schoolboy/schoolgirl level.

Habanera
A Bit Of Bill Bailey This came to be via Bill Bailey when in the “Larks In Transit” he mentioned that “Habanera” which opens one of my favourite operas “Carmen” by Bizet, by its use of juxtaposed major and an minor keys is a perfect analogy for the highs and lows of being in love, he then invites a real opera singer (Florence Hvorostovsky) on to sing the piece while he accompanies her on piano. The problem being the subtitles do not reflect the words she is actually singing.

How I Made $150 From The Vocal Fiction Challenge Despite Not Being Good Enough To Even Make The Shortlist
The Vocal Fiction Challenge While The Vocal Fiction Challenge was running I entered a number of stories. The fact that I am not a published author and I am not on the North American landmass did mean I was unlikely to be considered.
