I'm not way off. I never said lyrics were songs but these sites are mostly about lyrics. Musicians who can play well but not interpret the material in an innovative way are skilled, not talented. Dylan is a great singer, he just has a lousy voice. Mariah Carey has a great voice but is a terrible
singer.
I said basically the same thing Marc did, I just said it as an active poster on these sites for nearly 20 years. Don't tell me what talent is, demonstrate it. Many of the sites I posted on 15 years ago are gone now. Stagnation. Being mutual admiration societies eventually killed them.
Good composers are rare and are a vanishing breed. Compare the opening credits of Superman: the Movie with whatever comic book movie is being released this week. The same goes for lyricists.
