You gotta kick off with a killer, to grab attention. Then you got to take it up a notch, but you don't wanna blow your wad, so then you got to cool it off a notch. There are a lot of rules."

• Song must be new to me (not necessarily "newly released") in 2010

• Must be something I could sing myself, making the whole thing a markedly (and awkwardly) autobiographical effort.

Reply with your mailing address. I'll try to get these out before the end of January.
