well, i've written many songs with my guitar, but i've never (successfully) written lyrics. none that sound good anyway. so i poured my feelings about politics, the media, and this war (i'm conservative btw) into a song.

i think it sounds really good. it's not finished yet, all i have is an intro, a verse, and the chorus. i also haven't written a guitar part yet. (i wrote the song down at 2 o'clock last night lol) but im planning on putting a solo in it.

i would post what i have, but im afraid that someone would steal it. i trust the regular people on this forum, but some lurker could use it as his own.

when i finally finish it, i'll be sure to make a video of me playing the guitar part at least. once my friend gets some drums and we find a singer, (i suck at singing) then i might be able to post the whole song, but that'll be a while.

just wanted to say that, as i am very excited.

Its a rare talent to write good lyrics. Everytime I tried, they always came out sounding like something a 5 year old would write. :?

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!! on your song

I still get excited with each new song.

I post most of my songs on SoundClick. (instrumentals)

The main site is; http://www.soundclick.com/

It's been a while since I've read the copyright info there, but if I remember right - when you record it (provided it's your material) it's pretty safe.

You might want to read up on your protection at the site.


Most of my songs are at; I Play Instrumentals - If anyone wants to listen.

I have a real problem trying to write lyrics - well, GOOD lyrics anyway. :lol:

Keep at it, and let us hear it when you feel comfortable with it.
