Marc... Thank you for taking the time to answer and be here!  If I would walk into a kindergarten class....and perform a slow ballad, you are absolutely right...I would have a few loose screws in my wee noggin...and I would never try that. ANY slow song that I have in the Children's genre that is not specifically a lullaby...is aimed more toward either Printed Music....or....Film or theme type music for a production. I have a much easier time writing mid tempo and faster children's songs.. I don't believe I asked my question clearly, sorry...but I am understanding....If you're going to try to write a commercial ballad...that chorus had better be a power ballad, with a big soaring chorus.. and more of a mid-tempo. I know I'm not there yet ...but that is the style I love to try to write. ******** Average writers night: 30 writers, 90 songs in four hours. 75 ballads. Average pitch per project: 3000 songs. Ballads: 2700 Average ballads cut per project: 2 ***** Following you ....Realistically very tough......!!!.... Thanks for all the information...... Marc !!... Best.. Kaley

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
