Aloha Patrons!  

Welcome to our monthly vote!  Please note that voting closes Tuesday, October 15th at 11:59 PM Pacific Time.

If you're new to Patreon, thanks for being here!  Please read thoroughly for instructions on how the whole voting process works. (Also, if you're new, join our secret Facebook group!  Email patronhelp@cynthialin.com with your Facebook email address and we'll add you - and see Community Notes at the bottom of this post for more ways to connect.)

How the Song of the Month works

Here's the TL;DR version of what happens with the Song of the Month:

1. All Patrons vote!  (in this post! See the song options below!)

2. I'll create an arrangement for the winning song and teach a Live Lesson (access for $5+ Patrons) and share a Chord Chart (early access for $3+ Patrons).

3. All Patrons receive access to the recorded hour-long Live Lesson the following month.

THANK YOU PATRONS for directly supporting the creation of these higher production Play-Alongs!  Click these links to find all Play-Along posts and Live Lesson posts.

Song choices from your suggestions

This month, I'm sharing song choices that got a lot of love in the comments last month.  Be sure to comment with your song suggestion and upvote your fellow Patrons' comments!  (See below for instructions)

HOW TO VOTE

1. Click on the check box for as many of the song choices as you like below - yes, multiple votes are allowed. Please note - as soon as you tick the checkbox, the vote is counted. (You can look at the ticker on the right! Sometimes the ticking doesn't work on certain devices - in this case, try your laptop or desktop vs tablet or mobile.)

2. Comment with ONE SONG that you’d want for next month's tutorial. Remember that our Patrons span all across the world, so the songs that tend to win are worldwide, classic hits. I will also keep your suggestions in mind for our other monthly lessons. Please keep it to one song suggestion per person.

3. Upvote other people's song choices by clicking the heart on their comment. Upvotes are an easy way to double your voting power! Your upvotes matter, so I encourage you to come back and look through your fellow Patrons' comments to upvote.

Thank you, and happy voting!
