Well I for one detest [naughty word removed] buttons and have no desire to listen to the obnoxiously farting complaints they cause your brain to emit. I would suggest you write some form of harsh satire, for perhaps the trump campaign. Your comments are Not welcomed and seem to a Be a rush to judgement more times than not. That is why I have my ignore button which I am now pushing. Have a lovely career.

Gary, wow, thank you for a most detailed and helpful critique.You must be doing that for a living.
Sadly with AI if I re-edit this song and re-record it the music and vocals will not be the same. But I will use your sound advice on this song if I can get some band mates to duplicate the original music.
I will also use your tips in future songs.
Thanks again

Write all those tips down Matt, If you're still receiving Email notifications, then I'm sure you're aware of Fdementrio's "original/unedited" smartass posts above... There's a few A-holes here who seem to get a real thrill out of doing that. Trust me, it's best to just turn your notifications off...

This coming from the guy who the owner thinks is a tool and he needs a new account. I've talked to many who believe he's mentally ill, and he's certainly out there. So while your checking, check that. And it was Ben who did the critique, I likely would not have but I thought we'd made a break through.

And, he's a so called full believer in Christ, look at his behavior.
Not christian like, not human like, not decent like.
You'd think he'd work towards peace here.
He's a fraud in every sense.

This site should be called grumpy old men , The robot makes it work man , its like rap He started with both of us, and he attacks me on whims, then other times he wants to collab. What do I need him for? Ben you keep going back and forth about AI, one minute it's a great tool, the next it's robots and just type this and that. First of all there's not much by way of great songs done by this stuff. I have a couple I think are good, but, what it really does is force all to up their game If any idiot can get a decent song, that sounds good, then artists need a great song that sounds better. Then you take the reigns back, that's what's going to be what needs to happen

I'm a hypocrite on AI , yes it's a tool . BUT song should be cut with session players and sung by the artist , Right Tony were veterans lets kill somebody. So as tool like a drum machine AI is alright . the song in question is fine for a robot song , just not cut with real players

FDIMETRIO KEEPS SENDING ME TEXT THAT I CAN'T READ?? Which I would not read anyway.It's a gray box telling me that I am ignoring him He seems to be obsessive to make his point that my song sucks when he should be working on his sucky songs.His continuing posting to my ignore site borders on the absurd. Which is why I have ignored him in the first place.That and of course his idiotic posting: Poof poof poof poof poof poof poof poof Which took up useless space on the MP 3 board. I don't have time for such garbage.

Nobody likes to get kicked around like a rag doll, and you're no different. But if you make accusations, prove them

Your songs have always been "wordy," MFB and they don't fit in any of the industry boxes. Maybe a problem if you're writing for commercial success these days. Not a problem for me personally as a listener. I like when people do something a bit different. AI seems to benefit you as I seem to recall that sometimes your lyrics were an awkward fit with music that wasn't really written for it. On the whole, I'd say it does a good job here. Maybe because your style is unusual, so the robot has to do a bit of work I haven't played around with AI . How hard would it be to go back and fix that problem with the line "putting the end into girlfri-end?" Presumably because of that hyphen, the robot is singing "Fry end." Also, if wordplay is your thing, listeners are not going to be very forgiving of a line like "you put the famine in family." Just my observations, meant constructively.

Gavin, Thanks for your constructive comment. I never did care much for or worry about industry standards. My goal is to tell the story and my listeners love it Still I can see your point. I do like the artsy famine in family, because a family going through divorce is usually starving for some love from both sides. On this I can also understand some folks needs for simpler word formations. My songs are also poetry which gives me two markets to work with. Some of them have also become short fiction pieces that I have published. There is a method to my madness.Thanks as always for being a listener who offers stellar critiques as well as songs

Forbidden fruit has cost me a lot of money over the years. Eve was the first hooker , they take Pay Pal now. With 4 divorces , it's hard to tell the difference on hookers and wives. Adam was the first sucker , Or John we like to call them . Why I have a disdain for Biblical bullshit
