Hi Marlene and Tiffany,
Very pretty song. I enjoyed the listen.
Tiffany--nice to meet you, and I empathize with your newbie woes! Stick to it--it'll all come together. This is a GREAT place to be. I've been here a little over a year, but have been absent over most of the summer. Glad you've joined us, and it's clear you have talent. Welcome aboard!

Lemme see.... as for your linking challenges, I don't know why it's messing you up. UBB code is a little different than HTML, but not that bad to figure out. I've noticed that if I just type "http://" before the link, that I don't need to add any code (similar to when you type links in email), it will come up as a link automatically. Someone showed me how to make a "fancy" link with code for my signature line (below) but I'd have to look up my profile page to remember how I did that.

Soundclick is the predominant site JPF'ers use for sharing their music files. It's free and VERY user-friendly to set up. There's no rule you have to use it, of course, but it doesn't hurt to be there, either. Some use myspace, which I'm not personally fond of (though I still keep one, in case anyone's looking for me there). People like the link to the actual song page. Graham's method works for copying the link. Mine is, I navigate to the actual song page, then highlight the URL from the top of the browser page, and copy & paste that into my post.

As for the song--I didn't get that it was military at all. Maybe that's because it's late and I'm brain-dead (it's been known to happen!). But I also took "soul" to mean a moral compass and I thought he was some deadbeet with a bad habit that wound up taking his life. OOOPS. "Never was with her" is a good sounding line, but it's maybe too vague. I wondered if she was the mistress, maybe, or they had never really established a relationship, when I heard "with her." Dunno. Anyway, it sounds nice and you've done nice work with it.

Fun to see all your songs coming in, Marlene! Is it like having the kids back from college?

Linda
