Juliana Hatfield Offers Personalized Songs for $1000

Juliana HatfieldIf you really like Juliana Hatfield's songwriting on her last album, love to patronize an artist directly and have some semi-serious cash in your coffers, then she might have just the offer for you. Hatfield is claiming on her website that a measly $1000 gets you a personalized song -- for a lifetime of bragging to your other songwriter-savvy friends, that's not such a bad deal.

"For the price of $1,000, I will write an original song tailor-made just for you, to you and about you, and I will record it in the mostly acoustic style of my newest album, 'Peace and Love,'" she wrote.

Here's how it works: You place an order and then send her a message with all your gory personal details such as hobbies, problems, crushes and what you do for a living. After reviewing the information, Hatfield promises to create an original song around your life and send you a numbered and painted CD through the mail within three months of the order.

For those looking for a cheaper option but still wanting a slice of the action, a $10 donation will enter you in a lottery for the same deal. Hatfield will choose at least one winner from the lottery, and either way, you can sleep extra well tonight knowing you made a donation to a legitimate working artist. There's only room for 20 songs total, so act fast!

While Hatfield will maintain full copyright on the tracks, she intends for each song to remain a secret to its subject and will not be releasing this work for public consumption.

Kenny Nash here.............. I truly feel the pain and sorrow of this taffic flood Nashville has incured.......... I live in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and we too have had our share of disasters......... Hurricane Wilma struck us in 2005 just 7 weeks after Katrina hit New Orleans so we got virtually no help from FEMA nor news coverage. There were over 50,000 homes and businesses destroyed. There were millions and millions, yes millions, left here without running water or utilities with temps in the 90's for almost 7 weeks. We feel your pain Nashville but we are proof you will survive......

My deepest regrest to you all,

Kenny Nash

Good point and definitely agreed. Though there are the places which survived in 'Hilly 'Ol Nashville', those who were in lower elevations lost everything from personal belongings to multi-million dollar digital studios. My personal hope is that the new materials of the new Artists made it uphill in Ziplock Bags for their futures.

What a great idea! I hope she does well. (From another songwriter.)

Kenny Nash here....... recording artist/actor. acting like I care about what a crock of crap the music industry has dealt us artist. I don't know where to begin but to say that KARMA is a bitch. Funny how Nashville took such a hard hit in this flood. It was probably only intended for the fking sharks who have sucked the blood out of the artist there...... God bless the innocent peopel who had to take the hit for the demons there...... Look out Hollywood your next..

For more predictions and info just look around you........ The earth is done with us and "SHES" fighting back....

Nobody remembers "My Sister" by The Juliana Hatfield Three? She's talented, bunch of dopes on here brainwashed by auto-tune.

HA, why would I pay perfectly good money to some bimbo to write a song about me whom I never even heard about, and im sure no one else cares about, to write it? Someone sounds a little too full of themselves. When barely anyone pays for this (except those virgins out there) hopefully its a good helping of reality and modesty to the dumb broad.

Antique Organ at 5-05-2010: -- Csportneches didn't even HAVE 15 seconds of fame. I couldn't take anything he wrote by the time I fell asleep after 8 seconds. If he gets 15 seconds out of ANYTHING in his life, it will be the fastest order that Wendy's has ever achieved!

Hi! Who is Juliana Hatfield? Is she a famous song writer? She must be if she charges $1,000 for her to make up a song. Does Elton John advertize like this? I think Juliana should get a job singing Christmas carols in front of houses for free. What do you think?

Oh baby with your long red hair
I was browsing the Internet and I saw you sitting there

Your asking for money to write me a song
maybe if we meet and get along
you would think it is wrong
to ask for money to write a song

Now thats only verse 1. If you want the rest of the song its not money I want but instead I would like a chance to take you out and show you what life's all about. I will make you scream and shout.

She wants a real man not a 14 year old with a crush on Hannah Montana.
