It's the world all around that's so unkind The pressures on and even I did fine Chorus Now you're gone to LA you're a million miles away so how could we even try to break the ice? It was me who let it lapse and go cold And now this loud badass has just grown old Chorus Bridge We're all shouting now ...

Wish I could be a fly on the wall that's so I could watch my fall day to day a little wet outside can't keep dry no matter how I try Chorus people talkin, people walkin but I keep rockin on This could be my captive role keep tryin hard just to make that goal I can't see all the rot inside even thoug...

Dude - dont you know your own lyrics ... that line was plucked right out of your most recent submittal

:arrow: Cookie monster: If you made an album, this song would precede a rowdy rocker. You have an undeniable style, there's something distinctive about your work. The autotuned vocals are a trademark, and a good one at that. Some try to use it like you do and cant pull it off. I always note the subt...

I could be down on the ground and helpless you'd come around and beat me up. I could be sold in cans of tofu you'd buy 'em up just to feed your cat.

What part of Toowoomba are you in? I have never heard of "New Mexico". It must be somewhere out towards Goondiwindi. Near Texas maybe.

The only Goons out here are Texans buying guns ...

CR: I live in the "Southwest", and this does sound like the stereotypical hollywood "Southwestern" sound but not like any clubs around here. I assumed that all these "southwest" references were referring to the fact that I live in the southwest too. Nice. There goes th...

CR: I live in the "Southwest", and this does sound like the stereotypical hollywood "Southwestern" sound but not like any clubs around here. However, it also has a latin feel more at home in the gulf, or keys - anyway, over there. Its really good - production, bass, especially th...

I am only voting for songs that remind me of the Monkees. I don't care if your song is good or not, I only care if it sounds remotely like Davy, Micky, Mike, Peter, and all those studio musicians. My rule this round: if I don't hear enough Monkees, I ain't voting for it. Furthermore, my feedback is...

Face buried down in my hands
Tears streamin' down from my face
She's all kinds of sorrow
but maybe tomorrow …

It ain't goin' away
why'd I need her today
She's all kinds of sorrow
but maybe tomorrow …

Chased my woman away
I shouldn't be so ashamed
She's all kinds of sorrow
but maybe tomorrow …

awesome - many thanks. this answer is like going to school, and is why i'm on this board.

>Do you mean the rhythm guitar is dissonant?
its that repeating up and down scalar clean guitar/mandolin. the scale is minor or mixolodian or something, and just kind of carries a dread feeling with it. its not ABBA or Little River Bandish, thank you for that though!!

CC: I really like the dreamy feel to this as the vocals seem to meld with the music. Short and sweet, I do wish it was easier to distinguish the segments of the song (verse/chorus) from each other. It sounds like a harp is in there – nice touch, you don’t hear one every day. RS: Different. Not sure ...

No don't say it again I won't be listening what you finally decide I don't care anyhow Chorus: it's gonna get better you say it always get better I say it better get better now. Watch you playing your game try to laugh it away I don't care what you say I'm not going insane Bridge: Walk your mile - b...

Didn't sound to me like he was accusing you of anything, rather that a piece of melody sounded like another song. Or maybe he meant the mix sounded like that part was for another song and didn't blend. Yeah, JB is spot on with what I was trying to say. i certainly wouldn't intend to accidentally im...

well, it's lucky i'm not saying that, then, is it? :) I fervently accept criticism of my work - good and bad - as it does stay in the back of my mind during future endeavors. However, I work very hard on my material and if it doesn't meet up with the bar you set, that's fine. Just realize that ever...

Sausage – I am not sure whether this is utter rubbish or utter genius. *gets out comparision list* Sparse instrumentation? Check. Monastic vocals which appear to be mixed in from another song? Check. Melody that reminds me of a slowed down version of something else? Check. Solo just when I’m hoping...

If there was something that would even out the good from the bad vibes, I would refuse to accept it and continue listening to everything the way it is. There is no bad or good, just different tastes taken with grains of salt. Enough equivocating, here's my take... RD: You know, when I hear a song ab...

Chorus: All I made is one mistake and we're through you push me away All I get is a heartache and it's due I'd push it away if I could I was waiting while you were faking and asked about my role All I said was can I expect more than superficial love All the while it's clear to me and perfect sense t...

Does any one know any major Hollywood producers? I think I have just written next years Oscar winner. Here is my preliminary script for "Push It - The Salt 'n'Peppa Story" LARON L JAMES: Ok - I got "Baby" - where do we go after that? JOSEPH JONES: How about....another "Baby...

heine - this is a raw demo, i know that. but it begs for just a bit more production. especially the chorus "cut it out", just a little doubled vocal or reverb. in the bridge, how about some high harmonies? I really really like this - but because it is SOOOO close to being complete, I was l...
