Description:

Ever notice how many songs have "Heaven" in the title? I was looking through my collection for songs with particular words in the title for another swap and I kept running across songs with "Heaven" in the title. I was inspired (insert cheesy "Light From Above" effect and harp music).

For this swap, you will make one CD for each of your partners with a minimum of 14 songs. These songs must have titles that contain any of the following words:

  • Heaven
  • Angel(s)
  • Wing(s)
  • Halo
  • Saint(s)
  • Blessed
  • Hell
  • Demon(s)
  • Devil
  • Sin
  • Evil
  • Damned

Of course, if you can find other words that also fit this general theme (ie. soul, prayer, curse,forgive/forgiven, etc) , toss them in! I just created the above list to get you started thinking along that track. Try to really mix it up, using as many words as you can from both the "good" and "evil" words. Any genre is fine, the more of a mix the better. Have fun with this one!

Some examples of songs you might use (and feel free to use any of these that are listed to get you started):
* "Heaven" by Warrant
* "Saints & Angels" by Sara Evans
* "Sin Wagon" by Dixie Chicks
* "Evil Woman" by ELO

Rules: No more than 2 songs by any one artist or group. Be sure to include a track list and make a cover sheet for the case to reflect the theme. This can be simple or elaborate, that's up to you and your creative abilities. You will have plenty of time between the final sign up date and the swap by date to do so.

International swap. Newbies are welcome, with a completed profile. I won't ban soley on low ratings, but if you have a lower rating, I will be checking into it and will ban if I feel it necessary. If you have any no sends, get them cleared up. I will be contacting you about them before I ban, but know that you may be dropped because of them. I don't want anyone to not get something in return for their efforts, that's just not fair to the others participating in the swap.

This is my first time hosting a swap, so if anything isn't crystal clear, please post below or feel free to message me. I don't want to miss anything. Have fun mixing and swapping!

I have to choose just so many songs?! That's hard! I just went through my collection as well as those of my stepdaughter and daughter, and I have enough songs for at least four or five CDs. Methinks I'll be sending a couple out to each partner. I'm thinking one full of heavenish, and one full of hellish.

Still too many choices, though. Who would've figured?

Gayle, I feel the same way. I could probably do a boxed set for this! Its crazy how many songs out there fit this theme. I was kind of thinking of doing two CDs myself, and that's fine if you want to, but by no means would that be a requirement. And 14 songs is just a minimum, if you want to do more, go for it!! (Or save them, maybe there'll be a round #2 in the future....)

I always fill the CD with as much as will fit, which is usually around 19 or 20 songs. I like to maximize the use of the CD if at all possible.

Narrowing things down will not be easy, but I can do it! I think. I at least have some that I insist on being on there, so that's something.

If there's a round two, I'm all for it!

I hope I got the right words - once I started with Angel and Devil I kind of got off on some tangents! I love my mix, however!
