    Which lyrics you posted here still needs music? You van tag me and I’ll finish it for you

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Hi Geoff! I don’t think I will finish Black Rose before FAWM ends. I have my ideas sketched out, but no energy to follow through yet! I’ll email you an MP3 sometime before 50/90. Great work this February!! Keep writing…

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    The song with Leah took my breath away. One of my favs this fawm. Well done, Geoff! Hope to see you during 50/90!!

  • @srcoops  Feb 2022

    I loved Rosy! Great workl

  • @cleanshoes  Feb 2022

    Hi, Geoff! Yes, I'd be interested in a collab. You'd actually agreed to let me do "The War is Coming" about a week ago, but I now see jackketch put out a version, so I'll look through your other lyrics and see if anything calls to me!

  • @tamsnumber4  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your kind comments on "Beyond the Gate" and "Be There for Me"!

  • @jeff9  Feb 2022

    Thanks, Geoff, for checking out my take on Doug's "Somewhere East of Nashville".

  • @donna  Feb 2022

    Wow, Geoff! FAWM is definitely agreeing with you. (-:

  • @colgoo  Feb 2022

    Hope you enjoy my interpretation….

  • @andrea  Feb 2022

    Thanks, Geoff, for your positive and thoughtful comments on Window To My Soul.

  • @colgoo  Feb 2022

    I have already figured out chords and a tune for “Beating Heart”….Will record in the next day or so…

  • @colgoo  Feb 2022

    Which would you rather I do: “When it Comes to Love” or “Take this Beating Heart With You”? I can go either way.

  • @jeff9  Feb 2022

    Thanks, kindly, Geoff, for the kind words on Window To My Soul.

    Man, you're cranking 'em out. That keyboard is red hot!

  • @lyricslinger  Feb 2022

    Hi Geoff,
    Thanks for your comments on my Get Home To You lyrics. And for the suggestion - good idea!

  • @mikeb  Feb 2022

    Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Two for the Road'!

  • @colgoo  Feb 2022

    Would love to work with you…any ideas of a lyric you feel would work well with my styling?

  • @daveyboy103  Feb 2022

    A private party in March not sure after that but I can let you know. recording this weekend. Session cancelled from LAST JANUARY!

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    hhmmm time is not my friend at the moment pity! my last album was all Leonard Cohen, waits style songs. i usually sing that style at gigs! probably why i was so taken by it

  • @daveyboy103  Feb 2022

    Absolutely Geoff, let's set a date

  • @jackketch Feb 2022

    Hi @geoff61 , I think my wife and I have got a little 'egg' for your 'War is coming' song so will try and do that when we get home from work later. Take it easy.

    https://fawm.org/songs/129670/ Tried something

  • @marthie Feb 2022

    The next challenge is to write a song/lyric with Crazy lyrics: less than 90 words!... Crazy, I'm
    crazy for feeling so lonely
    I'm
    crazy,
    crazy for feeling so blue
    I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
    And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new

    Worry, why do I let myself worry?
    Wondering what in the world did I do?

    Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
    I'm
    crazy for trying and
    crazy for crying
    And I'm
    crazy for loving you

  • @hbusse  Feb 2022

    Wow, thanks for the kind words about my vocals! And the offer to sing your lyrics. Actually, if you’re interested I think I might have a tune in mind for Rosy is My View - mind if I have a go at setting it to music?

  • @jeff9  Feb 2022

    Thanks for letting me have a go at "I Should Have Seen It Coming", Geoff.

  • @mikeb  Feb 2022

    Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Burnt Orchid'!

  • @crisp1  Feb 2022

    Thanks for the comments on Under a Darkening Sky. Saw an old nylon stocking on the ground while I was walking my dog and bam! the lyrics started coming. Looking forward to what Andy Balham does with it.

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Thanks for sharing that wisdom! I'm learning that now. It's part of the creative cycle...those terrible "down" times are actually incubating songs for when I feel ready to share ideas again! A Hero's Journey, they say!

  • @gregorymckillop  Feb 2022

    You have great lyrics! Thanks for letting me try to do music to them! Excited!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Is there anything more terrifying to a creator than a blank screen, blank page, or blank canvas? I think not! We are all mad here, but the good type of madness :) The voices in our heads have purpose.

  • @hbusse  Feb 2022

    Thanks much for the listen and encouraging comment on In Peace!

  • @oswlek Feb 2022

    Thank you so much for you generous comment on "Together", Geoff. The gist of the message is for Doug's benefit, right? You weren't talking about me to myself in the 3rd person? :-)

  • @crisp1  Feb 2022

    Thanks, Geoff. Justin did a great job on Together and taught me a lot in doing so. That Buckets Full of Wisdom, wow! Killer lyric, my man. And then how it came out as a song -- tremendous!

  • @daveyboy103  Feb 2022

    I have vocal dysmorphia :)

  • @davidtaro  Feb 2022

    Of course, mate, happy to have a go!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I couldn't figure out how to add more than one collaborator? I'm sorry. I don't believe it's a possibility. That's why I added all of our names into the title. I just emailed you an MP3. This song truly has been one of my favorites--I've never sang about that topic before and I really enjoyed its complexity. THANK YOU!

  • @yewnorker Feb 2022

    You're on a roll Geoff. Enjoy yourself. -- kuya

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I hope you like it, Geoff! I couldn't figure out how to add another collaborator, so I hope you don't mind that I added our names to the title. Please feel free to add any notes. Thanks again!!

  • @donna  Feb 2022

    Hi geoff! Looks like you're off to a good start. (-:

  • @crisp1  Feb 2022

    Have a great FAWM, Geoff! Glad you're here.

  • @mandolinda  Feb 2022

    Yes I agree with the bridge/key change idea in My Balcony song. This was my first attempt using Garage band and I have not got past the first tutorial.But if I redo the song, you can be sure I would add some ornaments.

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Not at all; we are opposites. He is practical and down to earth. I always have my head in the clouds, LOL. I'm making sure my daughter is getting a very good musical education right now--one I wished I had as a child. She can rock an alto sax in jazz band! :) I think she will go into the fine arts though.

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    He's getting stronger each day--thank you for asking!!

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks for the comment :)

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    :) I have buckets of hope for this one! Enjoy week 1, Geoff! May the muse be with you my friend.

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I may or may not have tapped into the musical talents of a creative wizard named @davidtaro ... you know how songs are though. They have to take their own path. Soon enough @geoff61 :) We have a lovely surprise.

  • @mikeb  Feb 2022

    Happy FAWM 2022!

  • @sunnymae  Jan 2022

    Hey Geoff,
    Ah the old "dry spell" Know it well. I get like that especially after a great writing streak, including our lovely work together. So... let's just jump into the pool and splash around. :0)

  • @katestantonsings  Jan 2022

    Happy FAWM, Geoff!! I hope you have a wonderful time songwriting this season.

  • @tamsnumber4  Jan 2022

    Hope you will be creating in FAWM!

  • @davidtaro  Jan 2022

    If anything will get you back into the groove it's FAWM. Look forward to checking out more excellent lyrics, Geoff!

  • @geoff61 Jan 2022

    I had such a great first FAWM and 50/90 in 2021, wrote more lyrics in one year then ever before, some of my best too. Took a break at the start of December and now I am in a serious dry spell, I hope I can get in the groove for FAWM 2022

  • @mandolinda  Jan 2022

    Looking forward to reading through your tempting lyrics.
