Are you implying that bickering is part and parsel with a song writing forum? Because I hate to inform you, but it's about song writing.

At least it should be.

Okay, so I know Freud is out of vogue and discredited and all, but I personally think that 'meaningless' spur of the moment writing, maybe is the product of stuff rattling around in one's head that...

Um, guys! The post wasn't meant to inspire bickering. I'm presupposing that people will have different philosophies on lyric writing. I was just trying to tease out those differences and purposes....

Seeing as this forum is about song writing, I guess it's not inappropriate to veer from reviews and onto some meta-writting topics. I was just wondering what people's personal thoughts on lyric...

I like good ol' Nirvana covers. The basslines are totally do-able, get your hands moving around the fretboards, and are kind of cute and retro. They're lots of fun. And RHCP, which, depending on...

The vocals really weren't that bad. You've got a nice tone for recording. Pitching is a little off in some parts, but you're not tone deaf or anything.
