I haven't been a member here for long, but i've been here long enough to know that there are a few excellent songwriters. With summer break approaching I'm looking for songwriting projects. What would you guys think of submitting song lyrics and the songwriters turning them into songs for an album? Anyone who is interested start posting lyrics, and maybe a couple of artists you would like to compose your song.( If you are familiar with them and their music.) I would be willing to try and get it produced once it's put together. Poets,Songwriters, anyone interested?

does it come with a free watch?

FinsburyParkCarrots · April 2006

I've twelve strings on my twelve string, and my pen at the ready. Let's go.

walkerlastgen1 · April 2006

Yes, it comes with a free watch, and if you act now you can have your own work sent back to you, in CD form for three easy installmants of 39.95. And the first five callers get a life size stand up cut out of Scott stapp absolutly free.

OK, here's my song...

Better off Breathing

To the history teacher you’re not listening
Contemplating your own existence
Sitting with a pencil in your mouth
Wondering if this is what life is about
Your chest is so empty
Keeping it that way is tempting

Chorus
But, you’re better off breathing
Understand this life is about feeling
Turn off your heart
And this life falls apart
So take it all in
And learn to live again

You’re watching her walk away
You want to tell her to stay
That this is not the end of forever
But you cannot say you love her
For your heart has locked
You want this life to simply stop

Chorus

You can’t fast forward through the pain
Or replay kissing her in the rain
It’s about this moment here
Swallow that freezing fear
Take in a deep breath
And forget about the rest

Chorus
Because, you’re better…

dude...

fuckin' STAPP?

I just ATE!

:X puuuuuuuke! :X

This sounds good catchy and upbeat..to me Jboel. Intriguing and important subject.

I guess one thing we should do is listall of the songwriters who can record and post music..If you are an artist as such send me a pm and i'll make a list. It would bre good if the contruibutors could here the various artists and kind of pick a couple of artists whom they would like to represent their work. I guess a link to samples of your music would be nescecarry.

Thanks

I think this is a cool idea. I would love to hear anyone do something with the lyrics. I will admidt, I write poetry, so the idea of wrinting a song was a challenge.

walkerlastgen1 · April 2006

the two are vary similar...I post mostly lyrics on here and get lots of comments on them as poetry....when i read someones work on here I automatically kind of sing it...or try to see it as a song..

poetry has rythm to it, so the poet shouldn't feel obligated to present it to us musicians as a song..but if you have a vision for your work as a song don't be afraid to share it , or use the wrong termnology just describe it the best you can or compare it to another song..

DopeBeastie · April 2006

i've taken ppl's poems and turned them into songs here and there..

it's pretty easy to do, actually

depopulationINC · April 2006

hey, got a crappy little beat in my head...I'll weite up a line or 2 2night after work...see whats what and try to remember to through it onto a jump drive to post in the morning. I don't know how many will like it...it's kinda got an olskool punk rythm

walkerlastgen1 · April 2006

we need more poets to post lyrics....

and I know colaberation has two L's..psst duh..

DopeBeastie · April 2006

so... who's in?

pasta
fins
joel
depop
walker...

and ok. so. let's do this. we've got a set of lyrics. is that the one we wanna go with? hey, joel and depop... do you guys play instruments?

the first project will be the hardest, but after that, it should be pretty easy, yeah?

let's talk about what it'll take to push a collaboration through? what's y'all's thinking?

walkerlastgen1 · April 2006

we could call it "echos from the pit" and send it to the band with a message that reads just giving a little something back.

DopeBeastie · April 2006

so... should we write the songs and holler over to the musician's page to find someone to do bass and drums?

i don't know if those homies would be down with something like this, ya know?

walkerlastgen1 · April 2006

I can do bass and... program drums...eeeeeek...I can actually record live ones but that's a major hastle at the moment....And the quality would be questionable at best.

DopeBeastie · April 2006

don't give a rats about recording quality to start with

i just wanna see if can DO it, ya know?
