Do I loose the copyrights on my song when I submit?

By submitting your songs to Songservice.com you don’t loose any of your copyrights. We do encourage you to register your copyrights with a copyright organization (such as ASCAP or BMI). Only when we offer you a publishing contract we might mutually agree to split future revenues from your copyrights.  So you only share your rights if we will make money for you!

I only write lyrics, no music. Can I still submit?

Yes you can. If we are impressed by your words, we will mediate to find a composer/producer for you to work with. We do not provide detailed reviews for lyric only submissions, though.

I only compose music, no lyrics. Can I still submit?

Yes you can, and please do. If we like your sound, we will mediate and find a lyricist for you to work with, so that words can be added to your  instrumentals. We also work with filmmusic, jingles and tunes.

Can songwriters also access your online catalog?

Access to the online catalog is restricted to music industry professionals, based on membership. Professional songwriters can sign-up for a subscription as well.This is a paid service.

Can I also submit my songs by sending you a CD or tape?

Yes you can, but only if we have previously approved this. The reason for this is that we work with a team of editors around the world who will review your songs. To be able to send you a review report within reasonable timeframes we want to avoid shipping tapes and CD’s all over the globe. Therefore, we really encourage you to submit electronically. Should creating an MP3 of your song is really impossible for you, then please contact us at support@songservice.com.

Will Songservice.com publish the mp3’s I send them?

I have submitted a song, but haven't heard anything back from Songservice.com?

We receive dozens of songs each week, and only have limited resources available to provide the free review service. Therefore, in some cases review times may be up to two months, or over. We will not respond to emails enquiring after the status of review, when the submission was done less then three months ago.
