Hi There, Strangely enough, I answered a very similar question this morning on another forum about one of my own songs ! Here's the excerpt from my answer explaining how I feel about it -
'The whole point of any song that's finished is that you release it into the public domain and let people interpret the song as they see fit. I liken it to having a child and giving it up for adoption. I could write the greatest song ever written and 50% of the world wouldn't like it. There would most likely be thousands of different interpretations of the lyrics by listeners and who am I to argue with them ? If one of my songs is liked by, or touches one persons life in a way that they can identify with, then that song is successful IMHO.'
Regards,
Keith
Don't ya just love writing songs
