Instant thoughts. (add yours if you like)

I cast myself beneath your spell
but I just didn't make it there oh well

Godfather.

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing
I ain't pretty
and my legs are thin.

but don't ask me what I think about you
cause I might not give the answer that you want me to.

Ohhh well.

HalfFull your post reminded me of this song by FleetWood Mac.

Godfather.

Chip McFlennigan

orange bird i saw
on black wire breathing gray
smoke
words like cough and onomatopoeia
voice kept
breaking up
saying goodbye
seeing red
being blue
veins and arteries
the streets we grew up on
one way, narrow
capillaries

Chip McFlennigan

because the ink i used to write your name
was not blue like the stuff pumping through your veins
or black like what runs
through mine

tar roads

I found such a nice bike trail this morning!

Did anyone see the beautiful S Florida moon last night?

On certain nights
When the angles are right
And the moon is a slender crescent

Its circle shows
In a ghostly glow
Of earthly luminescence

Earthshine
A beacon in the night
I can raise my eyes to
Earthshine
Earthshine
A jewel out of reach
Form a dream to rise to
Earthshine


peace

Godfather.

I'm wondering how to get people to buy my music online without being an obviously spammy git.

couple of ideas. facebook musician/artist page
reverbnation.com page ....put 2 or 3 songs on there for free
link to the reverb nation page from your facebook page
finish all that up then put both URLs in your signature here
that's not spamming..its there if anyone chooses to look/listen
i have seen a lot of local philly area bands (some friends) that have gone that route and are making out pretty well. ..course you're in the UK so i don't know about access..facebook yes....i would think reverb nation as well.
you probably already have had those ideas. if not..well then, there ya go
good luck
nice sound
OH and if ya do that...send me an invite to your new pages

Got rid of Reverbnation. Too unwieldly. Had a Myspace page with 4000 "fans". Myspace died. Have had facebook pages and, um, I could tell you why they're problematic but I'd better not. I have a Soundcloud. http://soundcloud.com/maguidhirsongs

I used to do music seriously and I gigged all over London a couple of times a week for a few years, but now I just do it for fun, and a bit of loose change if anyone can spare it. Radiohead can decide music's free from their ivory towers, but I need to buy toilet paper. So, listen to the tracks on Soundcloud, and if you like anything, buy it on SongStall.

Glad to see you've given it all a try. Too bad those things didn't work well for you. I wasn't suggesting that you give away your music for free..no, just the opposite. I thought that maybe if you put a track or two up in its entirety free of charge, that you might attract people to pay for more. I see you've tried all that though. I have listened to your snippets on SongStall, but I have to tell you, at least for myself, I'd prefer to hear at least a full track or two before purchasing ANY new music. To be honest..and not trying to be negative here.... hopefully helpful..the snippets of music that I heard on your SongStall were just not long enough to give me a feel for what the music is like. I didn't realize that you had that the Sound Cloud page..and now that you've included a link to that, I'd be more apt to purchase the music, because I've been able to sample a bit more of it and can make an informed decision as to whether or not I'd like to spend hard earned money on a full album...or purchase some tracks. This applies to ALL new music that I've not heard before. See what I'm saying? While I was at the SongStall, I did not see a link to any other pages that contained your music, and the clips were just not long enough for a decision. I think a lot of people might pass it by precisely for that reason. Perhaps you might direct ppl to Sound Cloud first and then they'd be more apt to buy, having had a chance to listen to a larger selection I don't know if any of that helped. I'm sure you've heard it all before. But you asked..and so you suffer with my long-winded response Peace, and good luck with the sales.

There are times when I still miss you.

Sometimes it's almost funny how easy it is to predict other people's behavior.

I can't believe you would treat me so shabbily. Karma.
