song fight! submission
email specifications:

subject:
Tube Man
message:
Your Band Name
attachment:
yourbandname_tm.mp3

This is formed from your band name (not including "the"), all lower case, with no spaces, an underscore, and an acronym of the title (or in the case of one word titles, the title), followed, of course, by a period and the file extension "mp3". MP3's only! We do not post .m4a or other file types. More info in the faq.

You wouldn't think we would need to say this, but use the actual title as shown and your actual band name, kapeesh?


Here's how it works. Click the names to listen, then check the boxes next to your favorites to vote for as many as you like, but at least two. Check all the good ones, don't check any of the bad ones, then press the vote! button to register all of your votes at once. One round of voting per fight per customer, please.
how it works
Song Fight! is a free online songwriting competition.
We provide a title, you write a new song for the title and email us an MP3 by the deadline. We post the songs, listeners vote for a winner. There is no prize. See the FAQ for full details.

song news
Song Fight Live 2026 Rocked Seattle!
Song Fight Live returned in 2026 and in Seattle thanks to Fightmaster Sr, aka Spud! "Song Fight Live Lean and Lively" featured several hours of live sets, the live fight, and the first ever live remote set (by Hoblit) and first ever remote live fight entry. Caravan Ray easily won the live fight remotely from Australia, with a song that was not only a good song but also a tribute to Spud, something we could all get behind. That's a wrap until next year for our in-person events. There's still time though for folks to enter the upcoming fight using the live fight title, "Tube Man", with the optional challenge "Live recording". Will Caravan Ray win the online fight too or will a new challenger appear to defeat him? We'll see!

Rest in peace, Joy Sitler

Micah has shared some information on the boards and the SpinTunes folks have put together a tribute/cover album. Info is on the boards.
Rest in peace, Irwin and Dennis
Two of our long time community members recently passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. Irwin contributed as "Suck Weasel" and under many other names, solo and in collaborations, and was a regular at Song Fight Live, including last year's event in Denver. Dennis was the singer, songwriter, and guitarist in sonofsupercar, who performed at many "Song Fight Presents" shows in the SF Bay Area back in the '00s. We will miss them both very much.
New single, video, album from Dennis of sonofsupercar!
A month before he passed, Dennis's longtime band Kindly Swears put out a new video for their new single off their new album. You can find the new album "Kiss Everything Hello" on all major streaming platforms now. Go check it out in his memory.
