  • The lyrics are very real. They give me good imagery and that feeling of chugging along. I love those daily reflections on life while driving home, this especially is something I can relate to these days. In my opinion it ends perfectly with the…

  • I can enjoy how this is making a statement without being too preachy. I think overall this is a really good song. I especially like the different direction the bridge goes melodically. Nice guitar work man. I can sympathize with the overall mess…

  • I enjoyed the lyrics. Enough imagery and mystery to be compelling and able to relate to similar thoughts. I am a sucker for vague cryptic lyrics. Nicely done!

  • Not sure if this has been suggested but what about a new category something like "Songs & lyrics for Collaboration"

    Someone who has lyrics but no music or vice versa.

    I'm sure with everyones talents we could produce some great stu…

  • Back in the day when I didn't have kids my process was a little everywhere. It was literally all I thought about most of the time. I would a lot of the time sit in front of the computer with about 20ish seconds of material - just a melody on the …

  • I 100% agree with some good harmonies in this to sort of build on top of the song @mattyoung I guess its time…

  • The last couple years this song has been a monthly listen for me

  • I had to listen to this twice. When the vocals first started I was kind of thrown off but as the song continues I couldn’t imagine it another way. Compelling melody and beautiful restraint with the vocal harmonies. The part of the guitar solo that a…
  • @sidshovel I think we write for the same reasons Sid. Thanks for the well wishes. As of late I’ve been doing well managing anxieties. It was a kind of new thing that popped up the last few years so writing about it was somewhat of identifying what w…
  • While I agree in some cases it’s important have coherent lyrics in other cases it’s irrelevant. A lot of prolific lyricists use metaphors because they sound cool but not exactly have a ton of meaning.

    I’m a music first kind of person wh…
  • Ah okay that makes sense. Well I think you've got a great melody with this one. Looking forward to hearing the finished product!

  • I absolutely love these lyrics. I don't really have anything else to say but that.

  • Speaking solely on the music portion you've posted you have got a very nice melody. If I could offer any suggestion it would be to try and play with effects some to give you more of a unique sound. I am hearing very basic plugins that kind of d…

  • I guess I should explain the lyrics a little since I seem to have caused some confusion. Essentially my attempt was to personify looming panic attacks and the thought processes that come with them.


    Panic attacks floating in u…

  • I really like the structure of this song. The melodies from the Uke and your vocals dance well together. Everything sounds fresh which I'm sure is the novelty of the Ukulele. I feel inspired to pick mine back up! Nice work

  • Can you explain the process behind using AI for this song? Was all the music and vocals AI? also were the lyrics written or AI? When it first started I thought it was just heavy auto-tune which I think sounded good but after a minute I thought so…

  • Thanks everyone for the kind words!

    @RainyDayMan it’s actually kind of silly. It was a song about my anxiety so I just made it an anagram - Anxiety - Taxi Yen
  • Really nice easy listening song. I really appreciate the vocal melodies you've come up with here. Gives me that nice Kinks/60s vibe with the music but the vocals give me a fleet foxes/more modern feel. When you say Pop-Exercise are you seeing …

  • This is very polished songwriting and lyrics. I overall enjoyed it and it definitely sets a mood for the listener. Nice job!

  • Hey this is me! I got a comment from someone on soundcloud from this thread which after a little digging led me here. Im very grateful to have my music posted here.

    I kind of fell off of social media and sharing music after my second ki…
