All looks good.
Problem is when someone makes a blatantly political statement in the form of a song, it is still a blatant and provocative statement in todays world. That's inescapable. I was assailed for objecting to an un-veiled political song on muse and told that my objections were "absurd." Which itself was absurd. Even one of their moderators stated in writing that they thought that the song had gone out of bounds vis-a-vis their off-topic rules.
Muse appears to be run by a bevy of non-us citizens who share a mutual hatred for Trump. Had I written a song titled..."Kamala, you lied so many times," the smart bet is that they would have taken my side of the arguments and used them against me, and banned me for violating their "off-topic" rules. The takeaway...Politics is destructive.
During the day I listen to MSNOW, pretty much exclusively in order to hear what sh+t that they are shoveling into the minds of the hard & fringe left.
At night I fall asleep listening to Bill Oreilly to hear what is aimed at the hard right.
At night I also listen to Tucker Carlson podcasts where he frequently interviews wacks from the alt-right who shovel sh+t into the minds of fringe conservatives and people too dumb to know how dumb they are. (Tony)
So when I sit down to write songs, I personally, don't want any of the propaganda world entering that head-space. I just want to enjoy the time spent. 99% of songs on the radio are about some form of bonding or un-bonding human relationship.
All of that aside, I think that you are well intentioned, and I'll give your site a try with a song idea that I have. I am living mostly in the Texas Hill Country now and there are song-circles that I plan to join in. Your site could be a nice place to work up personal writes before I sing them out loud in front of people.
I appreciate the invitation to join.
See you soon,
Marty Thats your fault Marty . You started a feud with Rob again on your political views.Since you like that shite Trump sucks the economy is down 35% and so does Tonys fairy tales
