According to the scholars at Wikipedia, an article (with the linguistic glossing abbreviation art) is a word that is used with a noun (as a standalone word or a prefix or suffix) to specify grammatical definiteness of the noun, and in some languages extending to volume or numerical scope.
In English grammar, we use the articles “a, an, the.” On occasion “some” is used as well, but not today.
Welcome to The Real Article Walrus.
Send me songs that don’t suck which meet the following requirements:
Okay, this is a stretch, but it’s my Walrus, so get off me. The song doesn’t need to be piano-driven, it just needs piano as part of the track. I’m talking piano – so keyboard synth stuff is a no for this. I want the piano to be recognizable; don’t make me go looking for it (e.g., Pheurton Skeurto, November Rain, etc.)
And that’s it. Three simple categories for you to achieve Walrus greatness. PM me your songs with links and, if you want, write ups. Let’s make entries due by Sunday, June 30. I’ll take a listen that week and will start revealing shortly thereafter. Then we can all look forward to slim’s mid-July Walrus. Good luck and thanks for playing!
***Note: Any of the bands/songs referenced above are off-limits. Also please avoid anything that has won recent categories of mine or that I myself have submitted. If you’re unsure, it’s not hard to research. If you’re still unsure, shoot eyebooger a PM and he’ll ask me if the artist you’re interested in submitting is okay.***
I don't suppose you consider an instrumental piece to be a song?
I was trained that generally songs have words and pieces do not. But I don’t/won’t discriminate if you want to go instrumental. Stay away from post-rock and well-known orchestral/operatic works. Not because I don’t like them, but because I want to hear new and interesting tunes.

I think I will go the wordy route. I do know some very good piano instrumentals, though.
