Original songs (or short song ideas)
I play guitar. Absolutely love it. I'm getting better i guess, trying to focus on developing a solid creative ear...so i always try to find melodies i haven't played before. I like to think this is somewhat unique...hope you like it. If not, that's fine. [YouTube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEGx-5ZE4n8[/YouTube]

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
Thanks! I'd love to hear it. I can't sing at all. Really wish i could. I sound like a dying armadillo. Don't ask me how I know how that sounds. (I've never listened to a dying armadillo)

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
This stuff is great! I love the vibe of the songs. I love you're not just playing basic G C D, which is way too common in acoustic song writers these days. These have some sick "riffage," as I like to put it.
If you get some time, check out a couple of my songs and give them a listen.. http://www.thealterbridgenation.com/for ... =16&t=1496

Thanks! I really appreciate it. Listened to your One Last Breath cover...impressive, that's a difficult song. Also heard Castaway. Good stuff!DivCruz wrote:^ I like this the most! The other two were amazing as well!poshisjarker wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBZcLeav6vM

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
Thanks! Yeah i've tried to train myself over the years to not play typical stuff. I try to do stuff that at least feels different, unique, and stirring to me. Currently listening to One Last Thing...love it. Pretty melody.mrb1946 wrote:This stuff is great! I love the vibe of the songs.

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
Nice stuff on here! That creative ear of yours is definitely working, I'd say. Great playing as well!
If you're interested giving a look, I've also done some of my own songwriting, singing included (I'm not that great a singer either imo.) Playing-wise you're better than I am, but still, like you I try to make each new song I put together feel new in some way or other.

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
Those are really good and creative. I just started about 16 months ago, and I'm kind of stuck in a Em, G, Cadd9, D rut. Keep at it, that's refreshing to hear.

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
Thanks! I look forward to hearing your thoughts on my song(s). For what it's worth, what bits of feedback I've gotten from people on IMP (Indie Music People) have been mostly positive. I realize you or others on the forums might see things differently though.

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
i listened to autumn. i like how you're thinking there...it's not the usual cookie cutter cliche singer songwriter vibe. i think you're onto something there. it has an interesting moody feel to it that i dig. some of those little note flurries really help open up the melody, ya knowSunrunner1 wrote:Thanks!

Re: Original songs (or short song ideas)
I appreciate it. Glad to hear you think the song shows potential. It was a tough battle trying to compose it in such a way that things would flow together, considering all of the change-ups.poshisjarker wrote:i listened to autumn. i like how you're thinking there...it's not the usual cookie cutter cliche singer songwriter vibe. i think you're onto something there. it has an interesting moody feel to it that i dig. some of those little note flurries really help open up the melody, ya knowSunrunner1 wrote:Thanks!

Btw, it's technically my only song thus far to have been recorded in-studio, so if you decide to listen to either of the others don't expect the production to be as "professional."
