1. My, it has been a while lol...

    This is my first pop song. I really like it so far, I'm going to use a rap type of Lady GaGa style of singing it. Can't wait for Christmas so I can get a vocoder!!!

    Lion Taming (working title?)

    Battle calling, heart is staling, little girl and big withdrawing
    Ties are breaking; hands are shaking, cold with the numb money making
    Time is changing, dreams are failing, see you cannot; blinded hazing
    Revenge chasing, lion taming, fleeting, flawing, pop tart crawling
    Mudbath, straight bash, sending us back, seems like God’s avoiding the flash
    Lovely hater, break my fader, feel the wrath of the invader

    Do you feel a thing? It is incredible
    Lion taming, the psycho mind gaming
    Do you feel a thing? It is incredible
    Lion taming, the psycho mind gaming

    Metal gearing, racketeering, sunglasses; the clouds are cheering
    Take the hit, the winner’s grit, the rhymes are done before they are spit
    Numbers punch in, cheater’s next win, gambler knows how to lose in end
    Battle calling, heart is staling, little girl and big withdrawing
    Ties are breaking; hands are shaking, cold with the numb money making
    Time is changing, dreams are failing, see you cannot; blinded hazing

    Do you feel a thing? It is incredible
    Lion taming, the psycho mind gaming

    I also put together an instrumental to show you guys some ideas that have for the song. I did this in Guitar Pro, so obviously it's just a landscape thing. Drum beats are not going to stay and many other things are subject to major change...

  2. SICK return to the thread, Nick, you've inspired me to get going again on some ideas I've been kicking around. YES!


  3. Thanks Matt! I can't wait for your new things!


  4. Likewise! Branching out into the pop genre is always interesting to listen to- and I can't wait to hear your completed efforts, so much- those lyrics are hypnotizing.

    Yes, pop is so often overlooked by rockers. It's really a shame, because... pop is cool. Rock is kind of cool, but pop is really where the swagger is at. Thanks again! I've added it to the band's "list of things to rehearse" for this weekend lol.
  6. Alright, so, i've never really thought about writing music or songs, but I gave it a go tonight to see how I could do. So without further a do, heres my first ever attempt at a song/poem thingy. Any comments are appreciated!

    As of now, Untitled. Still not finished.

    Heart is pounding, my stomachs in knots
    The world's going off but I can't hear the shots
    I stop to think but I feel the same
    Caught up in the moment playin love's cruel game

    It's like something i've never felt before
    All this pain in my heart but I come back for more
    Ain't no sense cryin but there aint no shame
    Still caught up in the moment playin loves cruel game

    You walk in my direction I stop dead in my tracks
    We're startin' to talk, now there's no goin back
    heads tellin me to stop I pour gas on the flame
    Just caught up in the moment playin love's cruel game

    It's like something i've never felt before
    All this pain in my heart but I come back for more
    Ain't no sense cryin but there aint no shame
    Still caught up in the moment playin loves cruel game

    nice work especially considering its ur 1st attempt
  8. http://www.mediafire.com/?ll4qf7p4c59yet8

    My first attempt writing something solid in SO long...I just can't stand not writing. Will work lyrics for this during the week. Only a 60 second clip, no drums yet. Called "First Snow".


  9. I'm stunned! No lyrics yet, but I can already say you chose a good title, fits the song love the guitar, so tender (or how do you say that?)


  10. Thanks very much I hope to actually not change the guitar lines hardly at all, through most of the song. Just volumes, levels, and perhaps effects to give it a different feel at times. I don't want the song to be about the guitar, I don't think...I just want it to be there, and to create an aura around the lyrics I'm writing. Hopefully this one turns out very cool. Already a U2 reference in the first verse (First LINE, actually!), since hearing them in the winter flurry was what inspired the entire feeling.

    Will update soon! Happy to be back to this thread


  11. This is really nice, it's sort of like watching snowfall while at a rock show in a stadium. I can't wait to the the lyrics.
  12. Dammit, I'm home for the weekend and was intending to get some uni. work done...but I fear you lot have given me the push I need to get back to trying to write stuff again - bloody hell...
