Back in December, we had the famous social media guru @JimKukral on TwitCastRadio.
As if that his social media expertiese wasn’t enough, Jim brought along his ukulele for some extra fun and strummed out a few bars he suggested would be the start of a TwitCastRadio Theme
Jim promised to complete the song.. and true to his word.. has been laying down some tracks for us.
Lyrics Contest
@JimKukral is a first class writer, but he’s asked for help with the lyrics for the new TwitCastRadio theme. He says that it just wouldn’t be a good community effort if we didn’t get all our tweeps involved.
So here’s your chance for a bit of Twitter Radio fame. Submit a line about Twitter, social media, Jim’s singing abililties, the social media radio show, or the fun we have on Friday nights.
Contest Rules
- NO RULES.. submit anything you want in the comments
- Decision of the judge (me) is final. We may use your lyrics, or not

Sometime in the next little while, I will review the comments below. I’ve got a bag full of cool prizes. A copy of Twitter Revolution, some gifts left over from the #Happy09 contest and some special goodies that I’ll pull out if we get a super entry.
One or more prizes will be given. Results will posted on Twitter, and maybe here.
Post a Tweet sized lyrical line.. a stana, a verse, a chorus or whatever else you think will help. All become property of the Twitterverse. We won’t return them to you.. but I promise I’ll read them all.

@Noot54 lyrics for the theme
‘Twittering used to be for the birds,
now it’s for the common herds’

Betcha can’t tweet just One!

Forgot my twitter handle @debgallardo
TwitCastRadio is the show. TwitCastRadio don’t you know. We’ll talk about twitter so you can be a heavy hitter. TwitCast Radio. (I was trying to match the beat of the music that was already written).
Twitter handle – @deannatroupe
Twit Cast Radio
Just gotta tune in, find out what you don’t know
Twit Cast Radio
Learn how to tweet and reap just what you sow
Like bacon and eggs
Like peaches and cream
Warren and Jim
Help to make your dreams come true…
Twitters and tweeting
Can be nothing but pancakes
But if you do what Jim says
Could be million dollar handshakes
Try to be different
Stand out from the crowd
By just branding yourself
Without shouting out loud
Warren’s rules are no rules
Just be who you are
Because the girl next door
Could be a Twitter Rockstar
140 letters,
spaces and dots
Give Jim his uke
And he’ll write a theme on the spot!
Enjoyed listening to your show while writing this!!
See you guys “at Home” on Twitter!
