You know what's crazy, is how much popular music has changed since I started this thread. But I have returned to update and explore. Lorde's Heroine, twenty one pilots blurryface, and a lot of Imagine Dragons/ Alex Da Kid's productions sound amazing. It's like it's not about recording in a...

Jimmy, I was actually asking real questions. I didn't know about the charity thing with Greg's cd until you posted that. That's probably something he could've answered, but the thread closed. I've actually sent him a message telling him that I thought that's cool. I know the...

Greg, Thanks for the detailed reply. I'm taking note of everything you stated. And yes, I do have more questions. I see you have a link to download or purchase a cd. Is this a cd of your original music? If so, what compelled you to make it, release it for sale?

Greg, I've never heard your stuff, so I'm not commenting on the quality of your songwriting. But you stated earlier that you post your music on this site because of it being a recording site, you're looking for feedback on that level. But I see that you have other links, to soundcloud...

Greg, So when you write a song, for your own amusement, you never have the listener in mind? You never think, maybe I should change this lyric so it's not confusing, or whatever?

This hear me while I hear nothing else attitude is what I have a problem with. If that works for your songwriting, then that's great. I never said your intentions of why you write songs is a bad thing.

So first I'm making and a generalized point then you follow up with that generalized point. I then replied earlier with, with that logic, every song is good because the author will inevitably like his own song. That's when you came back with...

This was about my initial opinion.

Greg, Inferred was the wrong word, implied is what I meant. Apologies. But to your answer, for "my own amusement". That's great. I already stated my opinion on writing songs for yourself, and I never, ever said it was the wrong thing, or would it be a bad song. But if that's why you...

I'm not a doody head. You are.

I'm starting to get this quote thing down from my phone... I think.

You inferred it. But I'm actually not offended. I'm amused that it somehow turned to this. Like I said, let's get back to an intelligent debate, because unlike you admitted, I am open to different ideas. Yes, I know my original opinion might seem generic, but that was the one thing I...

Look, you went from, I have this opinion, to this example, to you're cliche... stupidity... blah, Blah whatever, I don't care. Why the sudden change in tone? Answer the questions from my post before this turned childish. On both our parts, so my apologies. So who am I to question you...

I was actually replying to your "find me someone" post above.

Now you're resulting to schoolyard tactics. I can do the same. I'm actually sticking my tongue at you while writing this. I stated earlier that you seemed intelligent based on your previous posts in this thread. Don't be mad because I turned your own words and ideas around on you. You're...

And I did read this entire thread before posting at all. It was intriguing, which is what compelled me to post in the first place.

Ok, just reread your post. Nothing new, got everything the first time. Soooo.... why are you still replying if all of a sudden you don't care. Leave this thread so we can have a healthy, open minded debate, which is something you clearly admitted to not being capable of regarding this subject.

Greg, Yes, I would like you to answer these questions. You're right, I don't know you. That's exactly why I'm asking the questions I'm asking, to find out your opinion on my counter points to the points and examples you pointed out. Now if you just wanted to air your points without the...

Greg, Lemme get this straight. You say if the author of the song thinks the song is good, then it's a good song? By that logic, I say every song is a good song because the author will inevitably like the song. Except... you say there are no good or bad songs. You wrote something else...

Ever consider the intentions of the songwriter? The audience they're trying to reach, if any? If I were to write a song for my wife with a bunch of nuances and inside jokes that only she would get, and it put a smile on her face, I would consider that a successful song that she connected to...
