It's simple, cause you are lying to each other.

I can tell you why your songs suck, but you don't want to learn from it.

So I simply say they suck.

Dom,
My personal view is that there is nothing significant to be learned from you.
You, like most people here, are hobbyists who are not in the music business.
You never charted a song.
You never wrote a song for a real act.
All you can tell anyone is how you write your songs, and what your sensibilities are.

Your primary contribution to the site is repetitive never-ending arguments, demeaning remarks and name calling.
And then you even want to argue about why people dont comment on your songs.


Simply saying..."nice song, enjoyed it." is much more likely to get you the comments that you seek.
And does not run the risk of being repellent to a casual visitor.

With that, I've said all there is.

Dom,
My personal view is that there is nothing significant to be learned from you.

But it's not a personal view, you absolutely can learn a great deal. Your talent limits you but your 74 years old writing say WHUT,believing that because you are you, it's by default good, when you have no authentic rap bone in your body.

And it's not me you learn from, songwriting is very much academic as it is soulful. It's not my knowledge to tell, it's a collective material from great writer A to great writer B.


So in a nutshell, it's a you against me thing? You think you are smarter than everybody here.
Your personal view make no difference.

A fact is true, whether you believe it or not.

So let me see, a baseball player, who never made it to the pros, but worked hard every day, couldn't teach you about the mechanics of hitting?

He's not good enough or fortunate enough to get a shot at pros, but I'll guarantee you he knows how to read a pitch, knows how to think fast ball but adjust to the curve.

Guaranteed he has developed the feel for running the bases, knowing he best time to attempt a steal, knowing when to stay.

Guaranteed he could take you into the outfield, show you how to read the ball off the bat, how to best position yourself to have the easiest path to tracking that fly ball .

Teach you how to find the ball when it's lost in the sun.

Yet he went to single A ball, batted below . 200 with teo home runs in 500 at bats, and made 8 errors, and never got a look at the pros..

Even though he devoted all his time to the above, he works at Lowe's stocking paint

That's the dumbest request asking somebody to be a professional songwriter before saying they know anything.

It's been known forever that greats often play bars when schlepps make millions.

Plain stupid.

We used to have alot of people who knew alot of craft, we just don't anymore
