Dark Circle

I don't say that all of my lyrics are bad! I keep the best for the end! I started making mysic so that I could listen to it and somehow along the way I became good at it and now I would like to have something out of it.

It is much easier to write lyrics for a melody than to make a melody for lyrics
^ Going the easy route, eh? Well, that'll get you far. It won't get you respected by musicians and those with good taste in music. But teens in general are retarded robots, so, you're bound to make money.

Unfortunately, we are the kind of band whose ultimate goal is to sell the music for the masses. ^ So, you don't care about the music, just the money? That's a good philosophy. How about doing something that makes as much money, but doesn't spit on artists' art? I mean, making bad music just...insults the rest of us who care about making good music. It makes money, but, it insults the rest of us.

1. Music is not bad if lyrics are.
2. I am first musician and then songwriter.
3. I want to make money on music that I personaly like.
4. Every song that I write has a meaning and represents a moment in my life

Urban Hat€monger ?

Really?
Then why not make them sound personal instead of relying on so many cliched stock phrases.

Thats not the point though. Aretha Franklin didnt write her own songs. Her talent was conveying the emotion in them.

Because I am better in making music than in writing lyrics

Kevorkian Logic

To make sellable music the lyrics have to be decent as well.

Here:
mass music=teenagers
teenagers music=good snazzy lyrics for teenagers to sing/relate to
mass music=good snazzy lyrics for teenagers to sing/relate to

songwriting is part of music.
they go hand in hand

I want to make money being a pokemon trainer, doesn't mean that I can.

Sometimes you have to separate reality from wishful thinking.

You might want to work on your ability to find meaning in life.




Sorry if that was to abrasive and mean, but you seem to be living in this fantasy world of the music industry, you need to become more aware of the truth if you will survive.

Believe it or not there are people who think that my lyrics are good. Personally, I think that they are not great but easy to swallow? Yes. And making money on music I like is easy if that kind of music is sellable

Kevorkian Logic

No. I find this song extremely hard to swallow probably because it's pointless, and why should I waste time swallowing things that have no meaning and are pointless? I bet I could give you a list of 200 things that are easier to swallow than this song.
