My turn? "I look into your eyes and I fall inside and wish that I could stay forever there." Since I Fell Into Your Eyes "There are many sad ways from our childhood days we use to get from Point A to Point B." The Harley Davidson Song "Red beans and rice on a Saturday afternoon make me look...

Thanks M' That's the kind of stuff I need to hear in the early stages. My process is about working the lyrics for a while and then writing several different melodies once the lyrics are set in stone. Then I keep the one I like best and move on to something else. Thanks again, Dave.

You won't hear me bad mouthing Behringer..... .....because the equipment speaks for itself. :D I own a Virualizer Pro that hisses like a drunken snake at a frog farm.

We're in the throws of winter here. We wouldn't expect summer folk to understand.:D We also misspell humor and color up our way. I understand your point completely regarding critique of Sharon. She is a fine writer. I have over 900 posts to this forum in the past and if you care to look them...

This is good advice. Most importantly, keep writing. Even if you turn out trite and drivel for a while it will "keep you in the game" until you find your writing voice again. Best of luck and put down whatever comes to mind. The best written songs are usually rewritten songs. The good news is...

I think... ...the first line of the previous post should be "ooo"mitted. Seriously, people are just trying to help with constructive critique. "ooo" my gosh, what a concept. :eek:

Hey gang. I have this stupid three or four chord acoustic rocker rolling through my head. I laid these words down to fit the genre. Pick it apart and I will humbly review your suggestions as I rewrite. Thanks, Dave. Ten Dollar Bill c.2010 Dave Morehouse Wind in my face not a care in the world...

bumper up Seriously, this tune is in its infancy and if there is any constructive input laying in wait out there I would embrace it. Thanks, Dave.

Some but not all.... Hey-I am glad you are still working on this one. I absolutely love the hook of the chorus. As I read it many possible melodies spring to mind. It is simple, yet catchy and should serve as a catalyst to what could be a great song. I Also like the last verse with the Southern...

I actually like the way this reads.... ....and, to me, without good lyrics you don't have a song. They need to either be meaningful or catchy/hooky but they should walk hand in hand with the instrumental part of the song. I enjoyed your inline rhymes scent/sense, weak/weak, and could...

Agreed. The same reason I bought a Zoom H2. (And those stupid little mini-cassettes before that.)

Yes I see that the response times are much longer than before. Thanks for the return welcome. I will drop in when I get time. I have written lots in the last seven months but most of it has been outside of music. I am looking forward to rolling tape again in the near future. More later, Dave.

Hey all. I have been locked up (Of my own accord.) in a cabin for the last two and a half months. Strange stuff is beginning to show up on my writing pads and monitors. In two weeks I will officially move back to civilization and return to the studio. In the meantime, here is another set of...

Hey gang - Haven't been here for a while. This is very unlike my usual lyric content but the short choppy stanzas that I am known for still persist. Feel free to have a go at her. Melody is still at the rattling around the brain stage. Until Dave Morehouse c.2010 Full moonlight, at midnight...

And so how exactly does this fit with the intent of a Challenge? :( Typically we enter Challenges to help each other grow as writers. :rolleyes: I will be sitting in my self-assigned disappointment corner until further notice. Dave

Nice job. I wrote these lyrics with the idea that a Challenge should be a true challenge. I was happy to see you rise to the task. I was impressed with the way you handled the varied line lengths and the equal syllable counts in them. I am breaking it up into a different meter but certainly...

Sure thing I could send it to an email addy if you pm'd me one. To send a pm through the board here would not work due to the filesize. I could fire it off before bedtime and let it cook away through the night. Perhaps I could ZIP it up first. Glad you're not upset with the song. Dave

up-fiddlers version of Commanda's Lyrics Click here for link OK....Please accept my sincere apologies for not putting my normal effort into this project. I simply ran out of time by the time I got the studio back up and running. I especially feel bad for Commanda who put her heart into these...

Hey all - Nine more days will mark the end of my fifth year here at HR. In that time I have hung out in a few of the forums but the primary reason I kept coming back was the Songwriters Forum. The people I met here were rowing the same boat I was. They were helpful and I tried to reciprocate...

Says who? (heh, heh, heh)
