    Fanfic material!! Soap Opera Cartoon trash ;p the good stuff

  • @katestantonsings  Mar 2022

    With a Care Bears GOTH Murder Babymetal song? LOL

  • @katestantonsings  Mar 2022

    @JayJay would you want to do silly lyrics for my 15-20 second music bit?! A mini collab? I have a silly yet super sad idea from @wolfkier for this key!! lemme know ;)

  • @resonut123 Mar 2022

    Hey, thanks for the comments. Glad you had a successful Fawm!

  • @marthie Mar 2022

    I am working on finishing songs at the moment but would be interested in collaborating in the future eg. Finish songs

  • @marthie Mar 2022

    Thank you for listening. You had a great FAWM!

  • @coolparadiso  Mar 2022

    Don't wait until next year come join us at 50/90.

  • @cts  Mar 2022

    Wowzers! Congrats on the win! #tit4tat

  • @apolez3  Mar 2022

  • @coolparadiso  Mar 2022

    Thx for collab and all your comments, you've had a really good Fawm. Hoping to do a collab album and would like use ours is that OK..

  • @wolfkier Mar 2022

    And not a stripper in sight! LOL :)
    Thanks.

  • @nadine Mar 2022

    You're welcome :) You're damn right about the social media thing. I'm just getting old and don't understand what it is all about.

    I enjoyed that you write genre for whatever kind of music. Tagging it appropiately may help you to find some collabs. When I started writing lyrics for different styles I just noticed, that the length and use of words can be very different. One rap I wrote has been nearly two pages long - and I wrote a rock song based on 2 stanzas.I wouldn't call myself a lyricist but I'm experimenting and learning. However alt rock is my favourite style to write and I hate writing ballads :D

  • @richaaaay  Mar 2022

    Psyched to dive in jayjay. I’m traveling and not fully able to focus at the moment. When I get a chunk of time I’ll dig in.

    Thanks for listening and commenting. I was particularly interested in your feedback on Feeling My Way and how the guitar was maybe a little too low in the mix. I had a friend outside of FAWM listen and he had the same feedback. Thanks for the critique!

  • @nadine Mar 2022

    I knew you'd enjoy :) Writing the lyrics with @tish77 has been fun. And his voice just rocks! BUt it will take a lot of time until we have finished the full recording. We will be 7-9 people doing epic ****. Who cares about top 100?!

  • @nadine Mar 2022

    Don't miss listening to "Take the black". I'll respond your #tit4tat in the next days. I'm done with @wolfkier and work my way through the list.

  • @nadine Mar 2022

    Thanks a lot for your comment on Simplest Man. Fun fact: I did not know the lyrics when I helped @seppo with programming so I had a real good laugh afterwards!

  • @richaaaay  Feb 2022

    I’m here for some tit4tat. Any particular songs you’d like me to check out? Personally I’d like to get more listens of Feeling My Way and Angel

  • @chrismyth02 Feb 2022

    Thanks for checking out "Thinkabout"; Love the stones, zep and floyd!

  • @br0th3rh00d Feb 2022

    Hi JayJay! Hope you've been having a good FAWM!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I love your imagination. Who's to say they aren't? Murakami little ppl are literally little...dragonfly drones for Thumbelina? I digress--enjoy your weekend of rest and music/writing!!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I'm sorry :( I was just trying to lighten it up. I know sleep deprivation well. It's not fun. I hope you can rest up this weekend!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

  • @quoththellama Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comment on Drag Me Down! I really appreciate it. And I'm glad you liked it so much!

  • @kahlo2013  Feb 2022

    Indeed! You should get a snippet to base your lyric on and the send me a snippet, looking forward to it! Liz

  • @elesimo  Feb 2022

    Hi, there! Excited to collab! I have time, and I'm happy to add music to any lyrics you write... as you saw, FAWM is my experiment month, when I get out of my comfort zone and try different things, so I'm happy with anything. If you have a genre in mind let me know!

  • @kenficara  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comments— you have a good point about “Bored” — it is definitely lacking something or a few somethings. At first I thought a slightly pointless feel would fit the lyric but I’m not sure it really works that way.

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks a lot for your comment on "Diplomacy" and I'm happy you enjoyed! I will return your #tit4tat next week. I'm too busy with merging my collab stuff before I'm not able to upload anymore. Ill put you on the watchlist before I forget!

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @downburst that’s just how Sarkies look at everyone lol. Seriously though, best lamb, butter, icecream and local produce. No cars so zero pollution. I hope you get to see it one day. It’s a special place.

  • @downburst  Feb 2022

    It is strange to know someone from there, over here in small-town USA. When I met him, I said "oh, Mervyn Peake's island" and he looked at me as if I had just grown a second head.

  • @downburst  Feb 2022

    Hi--just in case you don't see it, I've added you to the (belated) lyrics-first corpse in https://fawm.org/forums/topic/12401/ . Let me know if this doesn't work for you--I know it's late and somewhat out of the blue.

    (Unrelatedly—you're in the Channel Islands! A place I've always wanted to see. We have a guy building some cabinets for us right now who grew up on Sark--it's been fun hearing about it from him lately.)

  • @nancycunning  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comments on Es ist Nie zu Spät. Sorry I'd forgotten to add the English translation of the lyrics. @grenzgaengerin went back and added them. If you're looking for more hopeful German songs, @feb21sundari has a beautiful one here https://fawm.org/songs/127407/

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    I’d love to connect with you and collab post-FAWM. I’m KakarikoKate on LINE. (It doesn’t have to be an 80’s cartoon song either) :p

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    Nor me :-)

  • @wolfkier Feb 2022

    Thank YOU~ ~! :)

  • @nancycunning  Feb 2022

    Hey - I made some music for your song ClickBait. Added the soundcloud link as a comment on the song. This is my first FAWM year, and I'm not so clear on my collaboration etiquette....Really appreciate all your comments on my songs. I'd been meaning to just focus on lyrics, but some things are too fun to pass up.

  • @shallowcarrot Feb 2022

    Thanks for the comment on Paper Boat. I'm the most proud of that song so far (although it needs a ton of work), so it means a lot.

  • @andybalham Feb 2022

    Hi. Do you mind if I take 'World's on fire' (https://fawm.org/songs/128748/) instead? I think it would suit my style more.

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @coolparadiso lol I just had his style in mind for the music when I wrote. If only any of us could aspire to Hozier-ness. Big fan. :)

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    If i could sing hozier i would be very rich

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    I have finished the song, not in my studio now but will post in an hour or so!

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    By the way my brother lived on Guernsey for 20 plus years and i visited many times!

  • @andygetch  Feb 2022

    Same here and that is why I keep coming back!

  • @andygetch  Feb 2022

    You are welcome and congratulations on already crossing the 14 threshold!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Mickey Hart’s Sound Bathing for insomnia my friend. Give it a whirl!

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @coolparadiso i’ll do this from now on. Thanks

    I was mentally thinking Hozier vibey thoughts when I wrote, but go with whatever flows :)

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    Yeah if you look at all the lyricists like Cindyrella Kahlo Arthur Rossi etc thats what they all do! It means when i do it it shows as a new song and all on our watch lists get notified! hopefully i can conjure something worth listening to! Bluesy it says in your notes bluesy it shall be - hopefully

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @coolparadiso yup done. Thanks for the noob tip lol

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    if you want people to listen to it when i do it can you take the collab link off of it please or people wont see it as anew song = so same as with Neil

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    Yup i will take this one thx. Its very like a style i often write. Just give me a few days!

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks a lot for your comment and recommendation! I'm happy you enjoyed our fun collab "Skyscraper"!

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    Do you want to write me something?

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    haha your messages have made my day! Thunder, thunder, ThunderCats Ho!!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    Will you please add a verse dedicated to Brad Evans of Wild Arms 2? haha I drew a shat picture of him on my agenda in middle school. He-Man! I see a theme here--arm muscles. #plushycrushies

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    You, me, Nadine--Plushy Crushies! Let's do it!

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    "But the ghost of you
    Helps see me through" are some nice lines! I look forward to hearing it :)

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    awww, Carrot Top Cat! haha No judgment there. I fell in love with the candlestick from Beauty and the Beast. lol

  • @katestantonsings  Feb 2022

    You could always make the CareBears Punk or Goth!? Maybe I'll do Thundercats. I used to watch that one with my brother!

  • @nancycunning  Feb 2022

    Thanks for responding to Holding Me Now. My collaborator pointed out that I hadn't uploaded her recording. Whoops. It's there now.

  • @coolparadiso  Feb 2022

    indeed! maybe sometime we need to collab

  • @sunfire Feb 2022

    Hey, glad you enjoyed Cupid Slayer. I enjoyed your Valentine treat too. lol

  • @hummingbear  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comment on the Cupids in Jeopardy. Aw, shucks.

  • @crutherford  Feb 2022

    Thanks for checking out my cheese song! Yes, loving anything more than cheese is a big deal in my books as well. :)

  • @songmistress Feb 2022

    Thanks for listening and enjoying my haiku song.

  • @radiobenedetto  Feb 2022

    Hey thanks for the feedback on Rescue. Between you and Nadine I decided to have a go at remixing. I reduced the tremolo depth by a third to soften the headphone issue and per your comment I rebalanced the keys and guitar to bring them up in the mix and boosted the vocals over the choruses. Lemme know what you think!

  • @dasbinky  Feb 2022

    Hard agree, Operation:Mindcrime is the best metal concept album of all time, by a wide margin. Rawk!

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Frog chorus? May i join with whining cats? You made my day. I also don't feel like a vocalist, but I overcome my fear of uploading drafts. But you'll don't hear me singing on the final versions.

    Thanks also for your comment on "Hollywood Queen". Haha, I heard the word fugazi in an indie rock song some years ago. No sure if it was Arctic Monkeys or something similar, and I loved the double meaning. Be aware of the historical context!

  • @doggolito Feb 2022

    Thanks for listening to "cats" :)
    One day, cattos and doggos will be happy together ^^

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks a lot :)

  • @dreamscuba  Feb 2022

    Thank you for your comments on Fluff. Much appreciated.

  • @leakyplusme2 Feb 2022

    My cat would eat anything including me.

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    I called my friend. He's fine, just busy, but now "How are you" has some super nice vocals!

  • @neil Feb 2022

    Hey, thanks for the message . I sent you an email.

  • @dragondreams  Feb 2022

    I got the inspiration from my memories of my grandmother's handbag. Lovely to look at, but deadly to tamper with! :-D
    Thank you for the listen and the lovely comment. :-)

  • @sunnymae  Feb 2022

    Hey Jayjay thanks for listening to No Intention, my collab with @billwhite. Bills lyrics are brilliant and always compelling. It was very cool working with him and I appreciate your comments very much!

  • @rayboneor  Feb 2022

    Hey...that wasn't meant as criticism. I was just noting that the verses are different. Things went in a more mystical direction, which isn't a bad direction. Looking forward to more of your stuff. Thanks for dropping by a listening to my little song-thing :)

  • @slusk Feb 2022

    I think he gave up the catching up, but I’m not sure. ;)

  • @slusk Feb 2022

    Regarding keeping up with yesterday: I had a friend who saved a year's worth of daily newspaper while he was away for a sabattical. Afterwards he tried to get updated on the last year's news. (This was obviously before public internet.)

  • @slusk Feb 2022

    Thanks for commenting Procrastination. You realize that there might be of little use watchlisting me after this one? It might take until next year (or later) for next song unless I change my habits ;)

  • @shallowcarrot Feb 2022

    @jayjay done!

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @shallowcarrot no rush at all. Take the time you need.
    I can only dream of writing a song for commercial release, but, hey, stranger things happen in this crazy world lol

  • @shallowcarrot Feb 2022

    @jayjay yup yup. So I'll be honest, I did not think so far as releasing commercially. But yes, if we do 50/50 sounds fine. I'll probably take a day to have the demo ready, but it might stretch to two. Is that okay?

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @shallowcarrot nor am I but having just taken one of those course thingummyjiggys, best to set the terms upfront as you never know…….lol

  • @shallowcarrot Feb 2022

    @jayjay do you mean royalty split? If so, it sounds good to me. Sorry, I'm not really familiar with the technicalities :P

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @shallowcarrot very happy if you want to plink lol. 50/50 good with you?

  • @shallowcarrot Feb 2022

    Thanks to you too for reviewing my song "Strangers Part 1." And in response to your note on my soundboard, I definitely relate with the feeling of being a one-finger-piano-plinker, haha!

    Btw, since you said you rely on collabs with other musicians, would you mind if I tried putting a tune to "The Ribbon Song?"

  • @beat  Feb 2022

    Thx for listening and writing.

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks so much for your words on "How are you". When I'm done with commenting, I gonna call my friend. I need a pause of music anyway...

  • @jayjay  Feb 2022

    @dreamscuba if you’re going for the vulvaverse option it’s a meaty challenge but I might be up for it.

  • @dreamscuba  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comments on Between The Desert And The Oasis...
    Sounds like you have some lyrics for me for the vulvaverse journey...Cool.

  • @kahlo2013  Feb 2022

    Thanks JayJay! I was thinking rock as well.

  • @vivalarayna Feb 2022

    Welcome to FAWM! Thanks for your kind words on "The Tree Remembers". I hope you have a great time here in the community!
