  1. Hi Jilina, Welcome to SongStuff!! It's a fun music community with loads of good resources and peeps to learn from and with. Peggy
  2. When I first started writing lyrics/melody I never gave it a thought about the length the song would be when finished. So many, early on, were just too long, too many words. No room for the musicians. Over time I learned that my writings and songs improved when trying to be more consise with my words and leaving space for performance and arrangement. I'm not always successful, but ideally, I try to keep a song I'd like to demo or market, under 4 minutes, (as close as possible to 3:38). With that said the song can also become an extended version with it's own appeal and purpose. I have written 1 "song" that's around a minute, and my good music bud let me know it's not a song because of it's missing parts. So I call it a diddy @MikeRobinson, your mentioning "repeating" reminded me of King Crimson's Indiscipline. I had to cue and crank it up. I added a link in the music lounge topic "what are you listening to"
  3. Hi Aarik, Nice voice! Enjoyed your music video. Well done. Peggy
  4. Maybe this topic was/is an assignment for a music course . I wish there was more discussion on creative balance in music. For me, rules are always there but knowing them and how to apply or bend them without hindering the creative instinct is part of the art of music making. Peggy
  5. Hi WYRDmC, Welcome to SongStuff! Nice to meet you. Awesome you're looking at goals. The community environment here, hopefully, can be a helpful and positive work space. All the best. Peggy
  6. Those poor little butterflies 😉 Because I will forget, I record almost everything I do when in my little studio, just in case. And..I record on my phone any musical thought. I'll write on anything, at any need, when an idea suddenly comes to me. . But the amount builds up. I joke that it's like being a hoarder. Peggy

Lots of helpful areas on the site and good peeps around that are right there with you... working and sharing on all aspects of their music.. Hey, cool developing a unique style. I have to work pretty hard on vocals, too and they are not always where I want them. It's practice and sometimes needing alittle training.. but Sing, sing, sing whenever you can. 😁 Looking to see and hear your works. Peggy
