Amber Schultz – Toxic World<\/a><\/h3>\n

WINNER<\/p>\n

“I’m excited to be welcomed into the UPF family, grateful for the opportunity and honoured to be asked to contribute to the album and work with such talented people. I’m looking forward to following the development of the song also and hearing the final production. I’ve spent time listening to the music you’ve all produced and love it! The message you send to the world through music is fantastic. I know Mark and everyone involved will do it justice. Exciting times!”<\/p>\n

James Sheridan – Start Over Again<\/a><\/h3>\n

WINNER<\/p>\n

I was inspired to write lyrics for the UPF song contest because I wholeheartedly support UPF and their commitment to help save our planet through awareness expressed in their music, particularly their unique style which is progressive in so many ways.<\/p>\n

UPF’s music – aside from being diverse and pushing limits in the “progressive rock” genre, addresses the most important issues facing our planet today – that is – our planet depends on us to act now, if we are to survive into the future. As human beings we are all interconnected to our planet which feeds us and brings forth new life.<\/p>\n

There can be nothing more urgent than keeping our planet healthy, because by doing so we are also keeping ourselves and our offspring healthy. We have to stop polluting our home in space, because it is our only real home.<\/p>\n

UPF are using their energy through the power of music to spark awareness in people the world over – to act now and do what we can to help heal the ecological wounds that climate change and all it’s side effects are causing on a global scale. As Truey and his fellow musicians sang in the chorus of one of their epic songs, “We are all parts of the whole!”<\/p>\n

Dale R. Schroader – Milestone <\/a><\/h3>\n

RUNNER-UP<\/p>\n

I entered the contest because I have enjoyed penning lyrics since I was 13. \u00a0I think the best music is when lyrics and notes meld perfectly together. \u00a0The lyrics I submitted were originally begun some 18 – 20 years ago, when I was feeling a bit low, and have never been used in song. \u00a0They have slightly morphed over time, and when I read your contest,I thought that with a couple of more tweeks, they might\u00a0be a good fit for one of your subjects.<\/p>\n
