I can't say. But I do know they have 2 Ls, and i'm pretty sure one of the Ls stand for lips. Spitty lips. Foul, belligerent creatures, Llamas.

Incapacity. Strike the im and po with the tence word. I believe the word I was actually searching for was incapacity. I might have gotten a little carried away with the dramatics there. I blame the damn Llama. ?

I've decided the song is worth further consideration. I played it for others in the younger generation of family, they seemed to like it, said they'd never heard it before, and even said it sounded like something (my nephew) might sing. So I have another in the works that came quite easily to...

Crap. For some reason I can't edit it out. I click edit and it's not there to remove. Confused, and now I feel the llama is mocking my impotence. En garde, you loathsome beast! I shall pen a shanty which will forever more scatter your seed in the highlands far from the sea.

Interesting. Although i'm not entirely sure what you're getting at, I appreciate you taking the time. Speaking of swashbucklers, here's a photo of the nephew I was speaking of doing his acting gig with a touring company. The pandemic kind of put a halt to things there, hopefully things will get...

Yeah, my brother tells me I should do that. I've considered getting one of those little handhelds, zoom H6 I think it is. I went out of town last weekend and considered taking everything with me, had it all broken down but reconsidered. That's why I dropped by the house, to record the idea real...

I tried the google thing, saying "what's this song" then doing "dah dah dahs. Pretty wild, one came up that if you hold your head just right it vaguely resembles what I have. The other 2. either they have also yet to write lyrics, or they were in a foreign language. I think one was Japanese. lol...

We are a product of our influences. I typically don't sweat it. Even if someone says, "Hey, that sounds kind of like ____", or I recognize it myself. At times I may even embrace it. With this one, I guess that is why I kind of question it, because the genre of music if you will is not exactly...

Wasn't sure what to call the thread.... What to be done to determine whether something you've made-up/written has actually already been written by someone else? What to do? What do you do? Context: At least fifty percent of the time I write in my head before even picking up an instrument. I...

I don't know, I just threw that out there. To me a lamentation is maybe a bit more drawn out, a hymn of sorts, possibly. Yours stands well on its own, short. There are some lines I can't quite make out, but whoever the narrator or whatever he might have gone through seems to be offering comfort...

Did you ever see any of the documentaries? A very sad and odd case. The "West Memphis Three" is a reference not to the children killed, but rather to the 3 teenagers accused of the murders. They were in some senses railroaded by a corrupt local justice system. The documentary filmmakers got...

Hauntingly beautiful, at times mournful, caressing the soul. An example of use, although I do believe actually played on keys to simulate pipes, Zeppelin's In The Light.

Oh man, "I love you Papa!", those words. They grow up too quick. Ditto, nicely done.

Is this the first you realized you had unknowingly written a song about the "West Memphis 3" murders from the perspective of the one kid who didn't die from drowning? ^Just kidding around, sort of. I have to admit, when I listened and for some reason my mind went left field to tragedy, and...

I'm not familiar with Sufjan Stevens. John Wayne Gacy the serial killer? Wow. Mind blown.

Sheesh, can't get this one out of my head, nice work, CrowsofFritz. Nice work as well sorting it out, Jimmy. It's a bit haunting, melancholy & sad, disturbing even. May I ask the motivation for the lyric content? In a way I hate to go there for the risk of tainting your song: I could see this...

Really nice.

I remember the wonderment of seeing it live years ago, lefty playing upside down. Impressive at the time, but is it? I mean, it's not as if one of us righties flipped it over lefty and learned all over again, which would be impressive, I reckon. It's just the way they learned to play, lefty, and...

He puts the lotion on his hands. Bag Balm: Bag meaning cow udder. Cows aren't particularly fond of dry scratchy palms & fingers(and neither are guitar strings when you are trying to record?). Balm meaning stuff that will help make your palms & fingers less dry & scratchy. I've never tried...

Avoiding "you" and "I" can at times provide greater freedom to express what you want to say. For example, attributing your own thoughts, feelings, frustrations & anger, or perhaps even self criticisms to a fictional or representative character "him" or "he" can free you to say what needs to be...
