    The "first line" thread...

    Oh dear, you just had to go and provoke the Panda lover in me....(Sharon has had two glasses of wine this evening and is now free associating) :drunk: Must be sung to a country western rhythm....basic G, C, D pattern (with a miscellaneous augmented 5th thrown in for good measure!)...

    The "first line" thread...

    I just wanna know if these pandas are related?!! :laughings: (sorry guys, couldn't help it!) Actually, they sound like very interesting openers! Makes me want to hear the song.

    The "first line" thread...

    this is fun!! Thanks Armistice! I enjoyed reading the disjointed variety of opening lines. Here's some more to add to the collection so far: "Sifting through memories....like bills you forgot to pay" (You Promised Me) "Wish I knew what you were thinking...are we dead or still alive" (Don't...

    Whats wrong with me?

    that's a fun idea! Are you going to start that thread? I do think the first line is important....but I love a well-written song where every line is something special, provoking, or at least entertaining. back to studying....grrrr! Just thought I'd pop on here real quick and see what...

    lyrics review please!

    thanks for the comments! I have been busy studying for a big exam coming up in December and haven't had time to goof off here lately!! Awwww...thanks Armistice! I think I'm getting better at it, but yes it is nice to get a pat on the back (hopefully once I put it to music the pats won't come...

    Is this the end of the road?

    I'm jealous! My day job is definitely getting in the way of my free time. So....are we having a going away party/celebration for alex0203 and his epiphany? :laughings:

    I don't understand the reputation points?

    Can someone please explain the reputation points? Are they that important? Can I trade my points in for $$$$? :laughings:

    Is this the end of the road?

    how about writing a song about patience? frustration? sadness? I'm relatively new to this site, but so far I've found a lot of encouragement. I don't think waiting a day or so for a response is all that long. I'm still getting comments on something I posted several days ago....

    Like I Knew You Would

    offering another female point of view here: these lyrics are not offensive....it's just a dude expressing his opinion to one girl. And "brutal"???!!! I guess if you think a tickle-fest is brutal then this might fit that description. "Geeky and peppy"...yes. "Brutal"....not even close. Now...

    Give this one a listen.

    I listened to the second version you posted. Is that you singing Clong? You have a great voice. I agree, the cymbals stick out a bit. There's something about the drum part that seems like it could be done better. Maybe it's the snare drum (?) that sounds sort of cheap? Maybe that's what...

    Never Felt So...

    OK....I'll retract my comment about hating the longing look/writing book line! I liked the change in the line about "you were done, I was used" (make sure to enunciate the word "used" though b/c it sounds like you're saying "you were done, I was YOU". I liked the demo (even with the epileptic...

    Radiohead song

    very nice guitar work.....I'm sleepy...would be nice to drag the computer to my room and drift off to this song. I didn't think the vocal was too loud at all...was a really great vocal I thought.

    Is this as retched as I think it is?!!

    Wow Grim...thanks! I'm vintage 1964, my friend who did this particular recording is of equal "maturity"...maybe that explains all the panning?! This one was fun to write with my daughter, Becca (she's doing the main vocals here). Several years ago she had written a few of these lines in a poem...

    Chariot (here's some lyrics to review)

    I've pondered this/that dilemma now for 2 weeks. I'm certain I have to stick with "THAT" chariot in the verse b/c the whole reference to Elijah thing and waiting on a chariot to come rescue me...blah blah blah....so using "this chariot on fire is moving slow" won't work. BUT...I'm thinking...

    Is this as retched as I think it is?!!

    Hello Gassy...thanks for listening! Ah yes....my ever-present finger flubs!! :spank: Grrrr :mad: I'm thinking I'll just make that part of my trademark sound....:laughings::laughings::laughings::laughings: Seriously, once I figure out how to do recording in my house, I can always go back...

    my first vocals, song 1 of 2

    OK...now I have also listened to the second song (No Memory). vocals are still getting off key at various places. I have a similar complaint again that the song just kind of meanders. OK...maybe "unravels unpleasantly" was a bit harsh...maybe I was crabby b/c I hadn't had lunch yet?! The...

    my first vocals, song 1 of 2

    you might get more responses if folks didn't have to download (for example that dropbox thing, or soundclick). 1:37/1:38 vocals are off....then after that you get it right and the harmony is cool, then it kinda unravels unpleasantly after the 4:00 mark. Not diggin' that talking part around...

    would someone be into to add some guitar on a track of mine?

    I listened to what I think is the original track in your first post (no guitar) and then I heard squibble's track with just plain guitar. Is there a link somewhere that has the two integrated?

    Is this as retched as I think it is?!!

    "apocryphal"....yes, I had to look that one up Mr. Crankypants! Don't worry, you can pick on my grammar with abandoned enthusiasm, I appreciate your keen attention to detail. (Don't look now, but I spy a typo in your post! Bwaaa Haaa Haaa)
