The "Hits They Missed"

So remember all those other songs that didn’t get chosen in the Idol Songwriting Contest? Well now they’re going to see the light of day…

Three songwriters who entered the contest got together and assembled an album of 10 songs that didn’t make the cut. It’s called “Hits They Missed—Songs Not Fit for an Idol—Or So They Say.”

Proceeds from the sales of the album will go to the Oakland School for the Arts.

You can buy one at Melodies That Matter. You can also listen to clips of the songs here. But be warned. Some of them are a little scary—yes, even scarier than “This Is My Now”…
