  1. We've been planning for a New Topic: What are you listening to in 2023? ComingJanuary!! This Topic will still be available in total or grouped into years and may be locked for updates. Any suggestions welcomed. Peggy
  2. The Pretenders - How Much Did You Get For Your Soul?
  3. Welcome to Songstuff, Hunned Kay. Nice stats! Need to check you music out. Peggy
  4. I've always enjoyed backup singing and not lead singing. Since I write lyrics, they most often have a feminine aspect to them and they need a female singer. So I have to go way out of my comfort zone in singing the lead vocal. (Sometimes my lyric is written for a male singer, sometimes it could be sung by a male or female, but not generally.)
  5. I like to use near-rhymes in writing, which aren't always so expected. And I also like writing with no rhymes and it's a good challenge. I have to start out with the intent of not rhyming. I mostly try staying away from the expected trope or theme whether it be songs of love, done me wrong, country etc. When I do use them, I do it with a different or twist. Oh my, I really like almost all of lyrics. They have melodys that most seem to just come as I write. Some of the melodys are keepers some get changed as they are being worked on. My problem is finishing the music so it becomes a presentable song.
  6. Welcome to Songstuff, Kevin! Enjoy the community.
  7. Was reminded of this song when checking out Chat on the homepage. And the live ..
  8. I totally get it, pretty much saw videos as an applied part of the presentation. But I am recognizing the imagery in my thoughts when creating, I'm just not doing anything with them.
  9. I think you hit on it. Interesting that you are thinking about that visual presentation during the creative process and not an afterthought...giving the song another dimension. It does seem to be an important aspect of the enjoyment and entertainment for the listeners today as well as the expectation because of the platforms with music videos. I see my nephew's and nieces and they are always watching the vids as they are listening. I watch the videos when selecting songs for our YouTube playlists, for lots of reasons. But, I also watch those that grab me. I always visualize while I'm writing but I've never really mirrored that up with the song when finished. That absence might be leaving much of my creativity on the table.
  10. How much do you think the visual aspects in music as presented through videos associated with a song effect your creative process, listening to or preception of a song?
