Let's say it's an equal opportunity to be the sweetest.

I'm the least romantic person also with a huge dislike for occasions 'manufactured' strictly for retail benefit 😆
Yes.. definitely manufactured for profit. But.. candies, flowers, special little gifts and lovey dovey cards and atmosphere can't be all bad.. haha..
About a week is good!

Yes, for Feb. 14th... considering international time zone and Songstuff being international, I often work through posting and release times. What do you think is a good posting time for the Valentine's Playlist considering we want to reach international audiences?
We'll run a promo post prior to the 14th.

Haven't listened to Rogan, even once. May be an *sshole maybe not. I haven't "followed" much of Neil or Joni except for their music, may be *ssholes maybe not. Just not big on shutting speech or conversation down. But It's a thing going on for the last few years. Just sorry that so many go along with it and artists jumping in or in the lead. That's not freedom .. it's control.

Spotify pays fractional cents for artist streams. They collect millions, maybe billions, in revenue. They pay Rogan many millions.... With money they collected from Joni and Neil's streams.
Joni and Neil and others, walked due to toxicity.
No problem there with their personal choice to leave. It was the him or me that was hard to take.

Censoring? That's not what this is about. Sorry.
Ok, whatever

I really really like Neil and Joni's music. Have most of Neil's albums and know most of his lyrics.
Same with Joni, almost. So much...it was super cool that on a Songstuff lyric critique I received, there was a comment comparing my lyric to something Joni would write. Haha..
But.... I would much rather hope they did this to get some current publicity, even a little vitrue signaling than to believe they thought censoring was a good thing. Societies throughout time discovered, most often too late, that control by a few is a scary thing. It's crazy and I wish people would look deeper at what they are asking friends, family, regulators, elected officials, and companies to do just to keep people from talking about things openly, respectfully or raucous in the appropriate environment. -
Hi Joe,
Welcome to Songstuff. Congrats on your degree! Good luck in your networking and with getting some tracks to master for practice. Sounds like a good exercise to carry out to improve or maintain your skills while not yet working in the industry.

Welcome to Songstuff, Arne. Are you creating any music for your channel or working to promote it? Maybe you could tell us a bit about your music and how Songstuff can help out.

Neil, Joni and anyone else, if they don't want their music on Spotify or any platform, for whatever reason, I support them and I'm fine with them taking a personal stand. But to want to shut down others based on their opinions is acting like a big baby, or "bullying" or anti-freedom. Control and censuring and forceful positioning is not good in the long run.
Neil's opinions are his opinions just as Eric Clapton's opinions are Eric's.
I have never listened to Rogan...
I am not sure why he should be deplatformed for misinformation if the NIH, CDC, Dr. Fauci, medical communities, the WHO, political leaders at all levels of governments, news media across the board are also not deplatformed, fired, or censured for the minute by minute daily misinformation they have been giving out since this virus got unleashed on the world. Instead of using bribery, lies, threats and censorship I believe an open discussion and conversation would have been a much better option.
The entertainment Industries whether in music, comedy, movies, sports, advertising, etc have never stopped trying to shape the world. Problem is many of them think it's their privilege to the exclusion of others with competing ideas.

Welcome to Songstuff, Sasha. That's a great background and good to have your latest tracks to check out.

There are several DIY ways to do it, some easier than others but once you're set up and do it a few times it becomes a pretty routine task to include playlists on your release plan's to-do list. Here's a blog link of one of these that you might find helpful. I've included DIYMusicians' article "Pitch Your New Music to Amazon Music’s Playlists".

Hi Vishwa,
Welcome to Songstuff. Are you a writer, performer or have other interests in music? Should you need any help around the boards, just ask.

Hi Peggy - What does “ finished” mean? I’ve got lyrics to more than a few but none recorded (or recording experience).
For the YouTube playlists the song needs to be a good quality recording and available on the YouTube platform.

Sounds really great, John! Good luck with your efforts and fingers crossed that something comes out of it for you and the young unknowns. Looking forward to hearing the progress.

Hi Greg,
I used Old Love on last year's playlist and it will most likely will be on this year's also. Good song!
Will check out the other one also.

That's a great list @john.
All points super good. I think #7 is such an important one. It is especially good for those that have excitement and are just beginning to develop the skills of their passion. Critiquing, which is not always easy to do, is also not always easy to receive. When done in good faith is such a great learning experience.

Hi All,
It's about that time again! We are starting to work on our YouTube Valentine's Day playlist of indie artist songs for our channel. Do you have a romantic song or a love song that you've finished or are getting close to finishing that you would like us to consider adding to the playlist? If you do, you can start a topic on the Showcase board and tag me @peggy so I can check it out.
And.. of course..any suggestions of other indie artists love songs would be good, too.
We changed the name of our fan based YouTube channel. It is now Independent Music Stage. Don't forget to subscribe.https://youtube.com/channel/UCkEW8R8Bdu84VtR0Wv2-iqA
