My song Mañana in song competition with Bob Geldof as a judge

My song Mañana has been entered in the current heat of a song contest organised by the YouBloom website and is currently in second place. Bob Geldof, of Boomtown Rats and the Band Aid charity single Do They Know It’s Christmas? fame, is leading the celebrity panel of judges and there is a big cash prize for the winner of the finals.
My song Harvest Home was in an earlier heat but despite a lot of people ‘Liking’ it it didn’t get enough votes to be in the top three which are classed as winners of a heat. This time I have done a lot better but whether I will be able to hold my position or better still make it to first place lies with the number of votes my song gets before the voting ends.
Mañana represents a new style of song for me and I am very optimistic about it doing well outside the YouBloom contest too. It is already confirmed to be released fronting an EP on DMMG Records in the near future, so its current success is great publicity for the actual release.
Voting ends on the night of 5 June at 23:59 GMT so only a couple of days left.
