    So I paid someone online to take my words and turn them into a song--sing them with instrumental accompaniment. It was a bargain and seemed like a fun way to blow a little cash while helping an artist. The project was to be complete weeks ago, yet I'm still waiting.

    I'm not mad or disappointed, but I am curious why they don't just say they can't do the project. It feels as though they are dragging their feet. At this point, I have the option to cancel the project myself; however, I feel it should be them who pulls the plug. I acted in good faith and expect them to do the same.

    What do you think? Should I just cancel the project? Should I wait for them to cancel the project?

    Well, when the words are something like this, maybe they are finding it hard to match it to the correct tune . . .

    You can't rush an artist.

    You paid somebody on the internet in advance?

    If you don't mind blowing the cash, put the words here, we can all have a go at finding a tune to fit.

    I thought for a moment there Krash 661 had returned.

    I'm off topic, but...Did you know the copyright of HG Wells 'War of the Worlds' ended December 2016.
