Yes, you are right @IronKnee things have changed but... creators are the same, little hearts that beat in a special way making songs and sharing them like little children show they drawings to their friends or parents...
Of course it's a simile ... Actually creators, most of them, show their work made with pieces of work of others.

Remember, you are an excellent true singer songwriter, never forget it.

If you reach out to the various national Meet-Up groups you are certain to get inundated with responses. Most probably won't have semi-polished recordings ready to post but that could change once they're motivated by your site. I imagine there will be good things that come from it.

What you'll need to be ready to accept are works that cut across all genres, age groups and people from rank amateurs to professionals who want to see their names in lights. It might be too much to handle so be ready to roll up your shirt sleeves if you're game.

I've been a singer-songwriter all my adult life and but never took myself seriously. If I could make music that was enough, and still is in the sundown side, but I'm sure others want to make their mark and leave a legacy that reaches beyond their cloistered worlds. I wish you the best of success giving them that chance and all the fun it brings.

@Mora Amaro La Loba – This is an incredible song and video! 🎶 Let's dive into both. I listened a few times to ensure I caught the subtleties of everything.

First, the percussion and bass are coupled nicely in the track, so one can hear and feel both. That creates a great groove to build the song upon. The synths and guitars are layered perfectly. Your vocals and self-backing vocals are awesome as usual. The mix is very clear—it's a great production, sound-wise! 🔊

Regarding the lyrics, they are clever and creative as always. The title is evocative, imaginative, and immediately piques one's curiosity about the song that follows. You've woven time into the story, as you often do, and that's always cool to read/hear! 😎 My favorite lines are:

We are dead and alive
under layers of time
turned into stones over our heads


Your song's words dance on the edge of the macabre (I love it!), and are magnetically enticing and cool. 💯

As for your music video—it's amazing! 🎥 I don't know how you always improve upon "great and awesome," but you do. This is likely your best video yet, with imaginative scenes and interesting images that feel like they're straight out of top episodes of The Twilight Zone and Night Gallery. Your performance throughout the video was very artistic and professional. I especially liked the eerie sun, moon, and sky imagery, and the dancing skeleton was a nice touch. 💀🌕

This is quite possibly my favorite song and video from you. Really great work, Mora! I look forward to hearing and seeing what you create next! :D

Kind regards,
Joseph :D

Bird Song - Chwill

Heya, just finished this songwriting project ive been working on, a decent blend of soft indie and psychedelic rock. attempted an abstract songwriting style inspired by Jeff tweedy. any feedback would be amazing!!

Lyrics:
moss in my pocket the breeze knew my name
may i rest in the dirt where the robins once lay
the bugs all pointed and laughed at me
telling me theres other places to be
but the trees dont fly away like the birds
and the trees dont fly away like the birds

commit to it and lay down for a bit
the earth doesnt mind if you give up and quit
and im pleased to see its as sweet as can be
as they cut down down my world

Moss in my pocket and rocks in my shoe
the grass holds my hand and asked me to view
and i see eye to eye with the bees that fly
I give in and try but the leaves dont lie
and the trees dont fly away like the birds

commit to it and lay down for a bit
the earth doesnt like me and I dont give a shit
and im pleased to see its as sweet as can be
as they cut down my world

Quote from: Mora Amaro La Loba on May 11, 2025, 10:36 AMJoeph, sorry but there is a confusion,a misunderstanding, my husband is really sick and his life is in danger but thanks to God because he is alive and doctors say he has a chance.
My English is really so bad that makes you think about a so terrible loss!
@icystorm 

@Mora Amaro La Loba — Thank you for clarifying. It's good to read that your husband is alive and there is hope. I wish him a full recovery. I can only imagine how difficult his illness has been for you and your family. I'm sending you and yours positive thoughts, energy, and wishes for better days ahead. 🙏

Please do not apologize for your English. The fact that you can speak more than one language shows that you are highly intelligent. :D

I'll review your cool song later today. ;D

Best,
Joseph
