So I had this idea, and we’re going to see how it goes.
Every couple of months we’ll take a topical issue and put it out to the plethora of musos who read this site to write a song about it. They’ll produce an mp3 file which the rest of you can listen to and vote for, eventually declaring a winner. If it all goes particularly well we might try and come to agreeable terms and produce a compilation we can flog on iTunes for fun and profit.
And so, songwriters of Canberra, your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to write “The Ballad of Todd Carney”.
Our own trove of Carney data is here.

UPDATED: El has noted that Dave Chapelle has an early entry.
But I’d like to think the local talent can come up with something better.
