Win Tickets to the Exclusive Launch of ‘The Art Of The Song’ feat. Work From Paul Weller!


PRS are exhibiting works from 25 leading songwriters including Sir Paul McCartney, Sting, Gary Barlow and Paul Weller.

Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Tim Rice, Julian Lennon* and Annie Lennox are just some of the famous songwriters that have penned original lyrics from their most famous hits for the ‘The Art of the Song’ campaign. Set up by PRS for Music the campaign has asked some of the UK’s best songwriters and composers to donate lyrics from their greatest hits to be auctioned off at Bonhams in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. The exclusive launch party exhibiting the works for the first time is taking place on November 10th and we have two pairs of tickets to give away.

The works will not be exhibited publicly so this will be the only chance to view in person lyrics including; Rod Temperton’s original Thriller lyrics never before seen in public, Sting’s - Message in a Bottle, Duran Duran’s - Girls on Film, Sir Tim Rice’s – ‘Don’t Cry for me Argentina’ and Chris Rea’s original lyrics written for ‘Road to Hell’ famously penned on the M25.

*donated by Julian Lennon on behalf of his own White Feather Foundation

Repost From The Huffington Post By: Jason Holmes Paul Weller bounds into his chair, an electronic cigarette gripped in his hand. We're in the BBC's Studio Three in Maida Vale. Visibly calm owing to post-tour exhaustion and a morning trip to the gym, Weller is here to be interviewed by John Wilson for BBC Radio 4's Mastertapes series. "Back in those days, bands put out an album a year, you toured with it for a year, then you went back in the studio and repeated the process. Looking back, I was glad I experienced that pressure. It helped me refine my craft and find myself as a writer. It kept me on my toes," says Weller, Gibson acoustic on knee. "It wasn't a treadmill, it was just what bands did back then.
