Thank you. I appreciate your comment.

Thank you so much Chris. Good call on the guitar sounding unsure. I've only been learning to play in a serious way for about the last 6 - 8 months. But I am very committed and play every night no matter what. Or just need committed, but either wa…

Thanks guys. I appreciate your comments.

Very beautifully done Carroll. I really enjoyed it. A well told story of love lost then found, done in a very artful manner.
If I may, there was one thing that caught my attention. When I got to the end of the chorus, I felt like I was loo…

Thank you Owen. Very good suggestions. I definitely felt like something was missing and I appreciate your comments very much. I will be trying to recreate this along the lines that you’re suggesting.

Yes I did. Good catch Sid. Thank you.
Try To Tell You
Pour out my soul
On written pages
Tell of walls I built
How I made cages
You don’t hear me
On my Island all alone
You d…

Really nice Lyrics Sid. I would agree that AI going country was the right direction, but I'm not loving AI beyond maybe inspiration to spark your own creativity. I totally get the attraction. As inspiration, we all get inspired by outside sources…

Thank you Chris. It's always nice to get out of your bubble and get another perspective outside of yourself, so I appreciate your comments very much. I think a lot of my lack of diversity speaks to my very rudimentary guitar skills. I'm still ve…

I really enjoyed this Sid. Nice job finding an interesting subject matter and creating interest with your storyline.
I think even for the uninitiated that may not know the significance of the black bonnet, tossing of the bonnet creates qui…

I really enjoyed that Elvis.
Really cool vibe, great hook, and just fun.
Great job!

Thank you RDM for your comments. The recording demonstrates my amateurish abilities when it comes to recording. Something I definitely need to work on so I appreciate your feedback. I think you’re right, some contrast to add some interest would defi…

Thank you for your comments Sid. In truth I don’t have a lot of confidence in what I’m doing here. I greatly appreciate feedback because I’m very new to all of this. I used to sing in band but I didn’t play and only in the last few years discovered …

Thanks so much Rob. Truly appreciated.
And constructive suggestions are always appreciated. Other opinions always help us get out of the box a little bit and maybe see something we otherwise wouldn't have, so thank you.

Thank you so much for your comment. I searched for Simple Things after I posted this and was quite surprised by how many songs there are out there with this title. It isn’t a complete surprise that there are some because it would seem to be a well k…

Thank you very much RDM. Great feedback and I will definitely take your advice on “internal”. Great suggestion. Thank you.
-
Kudos Sid! I had the same reaction as RDM. The “Let me be that something on your mind “ really stuck with me too. Such a great tag line. The entire piece is very thoughtful and paints a nice picture, but the chorus really brings it together. Nice jo…
-
Thank you for your kind words @popitup. I would concur that this could become much more with a proper arrangement. I don’t think I’m at a place (yet) to create a proper arrangement for this, which is why I have written so many things since and haven…
-
Ah, thank you Sid. You are very kind.
-
Even better. I'm messed up enough I have an endless supply of material. I've written to ideas put before me, but for me, writing to my experiences flows much more readily. Nicely done.
-
Just beautiful Carroll. I love what you’ve written here. Such a real, honest sentiment, conveyed very well. I always say I write for me, and then it’s really nice if someone appreciates it too. I really appreciate what you’ve written here. A bold, h…

Wow, love this Chris! Love the groove, the instrumental, the structure and how you pulled it all together, and it was fun.
I really enjoyed it. Nice job!
Oh, and the subject matter was cool too! -
Very nice Carroll. I really appreciated the subject matter and the way you articulated it to tell the story. Very thoughtful. Well done.
And good job RDM on bringing it to life.
Great collaboration. -
Such a nice collaboration. It was very enjoyable and I think Chris’s thought about The Doors is dead on. It has that very cool, funky vibe to it. Great job by all involved. Congratulations!

Rainy and Chris,
Thank you both very much for checking it out and leaving your thoughts. Definitely from the heart, which is the sole purpose of why I write and love to sing. I’m not always as open as I should be in other aspects of my life an… -
Very nice Sid. I hope I'm not reading too much into this, but I love that you put this out there and shared it.
Nothing heals like sunlight, and you did a very nice job of putting feeling into this piece. I really appreciate things like "I…

I very much appreciate the feedback, Sid.
I am an aspiring musician, but I certainly am not one at this point. My recordings are certainly very much amateurish at this point as well. I think drowning out the vocal is very valid and relates …

Very much appreciated Sid.
I should have posted the actual song I did with it.
A little too rushed with a rough recording, but please check it out.
Maybe I'll wish I had left it as lyrics only.😯
Howdy, Stranger!
