Songwriting coaches are generally guys who haven't had success placing their own songs, or placed songs long ago, and can't any more.
I'm all for trying to improve, but I'm not sure paying money for a.critique is your answer. And when you are paying, nobody is going to tell you you stink This may or may not be true. But I get people who come to me for my advice. While I don't make it a business of providing feedback, I will ask they buy me lunch or something for my time. Then again, I've had 1,000s of placements and usages. Are there people out there who critique and haven't had any success? Probably. But doing your due diligence on who you're asking advice from is the songwriter's responsibility. There's a couple of people on this site who do make it a business to mentor others. And they're good at what they do. MAB being one of them. In my humble opinion Taxi is not a good place to go and it cost a fortune. [sarcasm]Yeah, I can understand how paying to have actual A&R people that work at the labels give you feedback could be a real waste of your time and money.[/sarcasm]

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
