Vote for Monk! (and vote for Clark, too!)



Let's start with the works that are eligible for Monk's Prize.  Remember that you can vote by emailing me at thesongis@gmail.com  the name of the poem that you are voting for.

Felino A. Soriano for "Trio of incorporated interpretations": 


It's also time to vote for Clark's Prize as well.  The following poems are eligible:


Martin Willits, Jr. for "Now That You Are Gone..."




Allyson Lima for  "Turn":

Remember that you can vote from Feb. 21 to March 7 by sending me a PM on Facebook or emailing me at thesongis@gmail.com .

I realized that I posted this entry without music.  Lately I've been listening to my Dillard and Clark CD, so I'll post a link to a few songs from that album.

"No Longer a Sweetheart of Mine" is not by Gene Clark, but it has been going through my head these days, so let's begin with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mQtl70ghXw

I can't remember if I've posted "Kansas City Southern," which Clark wrote:

"Why Not Your Baby" is also by Clark, and it's the saddest song in the world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TQ6PYS2Q0I

Their cover of "Don't Let Me Down" has begun to grow on me:

I'll finish with one of Dillard and Clark's gospel numbers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnxEGjK-XVU
