Songs For Change is a call to songwriters old and new to put into words and music their observations of what's going on in the world today; to write songs that reflect our times; indeed songs which have the power to change our world.  This website is a forum for writers to submit their songs, listen to what others have created and to discuss music, politics etc on the forums.  It's a virtual community for songwriters!  So get writing, submit your song to the website (for details go to Send Your Song) and listen to what others have sent in.
