  1. And on the above question about how I write a song. I write what's on my mind really. Sometime's inspiration just hits me with words to a song, that second song was written when I really should have been asleep for an hour, but I just had to write it down, it's kinda impossible to get that same inspiration to hit you again.
  2. That's exactly how it's seeming to work. So far this has gone from what a week in hell (literally) might be like to buskers and lonely people surviving their days.

    Would you like to hear what my first lyric is like? (Be warned, it's not very good).

    Sounds like an awesome song! Also sounds like it would fit your voice!
  4. My first lyric.

    Nobody in sight and nary a bump in the night
    Hardly any noise 'cept for a busker with no well-earned applause
    The bricks were still and the movement was nil
    Wind absent and the warmth heaven-sent
    Friend and friend, uninterested in the night's end
    Sounds of arriving feet, the few left to (not sure what I can put here)

    One lonely soul singing to survive with his money bowl
    Looking to sing another day, through another day
    Sing for the moment, sing for the soul, sing to achieve his goal
    Of that he just can't fathom just one more day of famine

    A young child, lost on the street corner, miles away from her home
    Lost and so alone, broken and aching, cold and shaken
    This child weeps all the unaware city sleeps
    In their own dreams.


    Unfinished but so far there's an interesting structure to base it on.
  5. I like the idea very much

    Sorry for the late response, took a shower
  6. It's just a first lyric, so it's nothing amazing yet. I'll keep going back to it and coming up with ideas.


  7. Song writing is a lot of fun I have an idea from last week that I want to write on.
  8. I think I'll eventually write enough songs, put a few together and then release it as like a little free EP or something. That's a good idea actually.

    No covers would be going on it. What's your basic idea if you're cool with me asking?
  10. The Wanderer has a very low Eb note (the I went wandering part) which is really hard if you haven't warmed up enough and/or if you don't breath correctly. The lowest I can do is the low D immediately below that Eb note - and only in some ocassions.

    You mean the Eb like the low E string on a guitar tuned a half step down right?
