Some help here...

[blackriverside]

Hi,

I've posted some songs of mine on http://www.myspace.com/miketopash

I know myspace can be a pain sometimes, but try refreshing or downloading the songs.

They're pretty lo-fi recordings, but it's enough for you to get a general idea of my original stuff.

I'd just like some perspective here. My friends and family have heard them and like it. But I'm afraid they won't honestly tell me that something I created totally sucks. So being strangers, you can. Go ahead and let me know your honest opinion.

Thanks,

Mike

through and through, has a nice breezy feel to it, kind of makes me smile when it starts up, all in all a nice composition.

half way in a dream, has a kind of old fashioned feel to it, reminds me of gordon lightfoot a little, which isn't a bad thing, all in all its a nice track.

instrumental 5, i really like this, doesn't do much, doesn't have to, just a nice kind on the ears number.

this love, bag of shite, plus you use that think of you line that you used in through and through.

these are my honest opinions mate, i hope they help. all in all, you have a decent voice and can write, so just keep at it man.

first i listened to halfway through a dream, and thats what the other post was about, but im listeing to instumental 5, and its good.

draw some inspiration from john frusciante on the guitar, on some of his solo albums, there are some really good things u could do
