Just so you know George I am totally with you on this. I also believe that all of us will find ourselves in a corner at least once or twice during this twelve month period. And it will mean putting out something far less than what we are capable of.
However, I look at it like this: once I have an idea out there, good or bad, that idea serves as a promise for something more in the future. While "Leave" was not a huge leap in change from my first version to my final, the ending concept is VERY different because of all the wonderful ideas tossed my way. If I roll out an incomplete song, especially one that is empty and almost blank to the palette, I will be opening myself up to greatness through the feedback and ideas that will come from OSAMers.
In fact, since I already have a big idea rolling for April, I think I might allow May to be delivered quite raw and let OSAMers direct it! NOBODY STEAL MY IDEA DAMMIT!
That is the beauty of this thing...it makes us more professional. In the world of soundtracks, you could be handed a new scene that is 10 minutes long and told you have two days to come up with not only a new theme but have it scored and ready for production! This forces us into a similar arena.
Glad to have you as director this time around George!
