Hello fellow FAWMers! It's 2022! And here we are again!
I write lyrics & if I sit & try real hard, I may find a melody but prefer to look at life and write it down in interesting ways....always up for collaborations. If you'd like to add music/vocal to my lyrics, please tell me! Changes to my lyrics are open to discussion! I agree and follow the "Collaboration Guidelines" that are posted on the forum here: https://fawm.org/help/#collaboration
Looking forward to reading & hearing your lyrics & songs!
Kristi I would like to post “the birds still sing” on Bandcamp. Is that ok?

Thank you for your kind words on "Under"! I appreciate your feedback!
Hi Kristi. I just posted some vocals to your bird song.
Hi Kristi...nice to hear from you! I appreciate your compliments about Right About You. I'm pretty happy with that one and am glad to hear that it appealed to you...even the piano playing. That's definitely a change-of-pace instrument for me. I can't play many styles on that so I can only do so many songs on that in a performance without people thinking "that kind of sounds like the last piano song." I guess it works as a now-and-then approach. By the way, feel free (post-FAWM) to share lyrics with me where you would like some music. I enjoyed our collaborations.
Thanks for your comment on "Under". Oh yes, I like @chrismyth02 performance in this one. We will work on this song after FAWM.
Thank you for stopping by and giving "Tiny Grass" a whirl. Congrats on a productive FAWM. :)
Thanks for the comment on Cindy's "Cup of Nature".
Glad you enjoyed.
Great work this FAWM Kristi. Thanks for the collab, I love the lyrics for I Love Every Minute. We’ve got three under our belt. I’ve enjoyed them all!!!
I appreciate all your thoughtful comments too!
Thx a lot for comments Kristi. I have so much to catch up, since I had a drop out the last week of fawm. You been active I can see. Thats awesome.
Hi Kristi, thank you so much for your kind comments. My collaboration with Sheila is posted on https://fawm.org/songs/127272/ if are still interested to hear.
Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback. I can see how it looks like it could be the same person all the way through. I'll work on finding a way to differentiate the three somehow.
I'm about to run out but will pop by to reciprocate before the weekend is over.
That's one reason why I put your lyric in that Thread, because I can hear it being used with music in a song very clearly :)
Thanks a lot for your comment on our "Disco Blues". This has been a fun experiment! It's been my first ping pong co-write on FAWM and I never tried a blues song that is based on solo and improvisation.
Thank you so much for your comment on „change of weather“ :) I’m happy that you enjoyed it!
Thanks a lot for your comment on "Hollywood Queen" :)
Hi Kristi! I have an idea for music for your lyrics Be Good To People. Just a 4 chord piano ballad but it feels like a good fit. Would you like me to send you a demo per email first, and we can take it from there?
Kristi!!! So good to hear from you!! I am late I know .. not quite on top of it this Feb. Thanks for your lovely comments.. I loved contributing to that lovely song of yours and Rich. It was fun! How are things with you? Xxx
Thanks Kristi!
Appreciate you checking out "At your command!" would LOVE to belt it out on stage, so honored to have gotten to work with @nadine on such a fun track. Congrats on your FAWM win!
Thanks a lot for your comment on "At your command", Kristi! I'm glad you enjoyed some epic heaviness. We still haven't done yet but this song is on a good way to become a great song after FAWM. Im sure that @chrismyth02 would rock a stage with this singing! But I'm definately not a live musician, cause my instrumental performance sucks. I'm super deep in audio production and composition instead.
Thanks so much for the nice comments on Waiting and on Nothing (I seem to be gravitating to one word titles!). I value your observations and appreciate the encouragement.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out "Caped Crusader" and "Clear", Kristi. Hopefully we'll have a chance to work something up together!
Yay!!! So thankful you enjoyed it. Very glad you are happy with it. I love the lyrics you wrote. Thanks for letting me take on the challenge…
Hi Kristi, I sent you an email regarding I Love Every Minute.
Thanks for your kind comments on "Winter Early Morning"!
Thanks Kristi. I think Tammy did a great job.
Thank you for listening to my song. I appreciate the feedback too.
Thanks for stopping for a quick listen - happy to hear it was sounding good :) And nice to hear you got some 'uppy' types vibes from the track... I sometimes accidently make things not sound so positive, but I did try hard to fall down than trap this time!
Thanks so much Kristi!
Thanks, Kristi...for your comments and for being open to my efforts on No No. It was fun finding music to compliment your fine lyrics.
Awesome. Thank you Kristi.
Hi Kristi. Paul H here. I just made a rough recording of my attempt to provide music for your "No No." I'd like to send it to you for your consideration but am not sure how to accomplish that. Is there an email you could share or do you have some other idea on what would work? It is a bit rough but I can make a better version...I just didn't want to spend too much time if you don't like my take on your lyrics. Of course, we can chat about any ideas you have. I made minimal lyric tweaks, I think...but holler if you want to edit having heard it musically. Looking forward to sharing the recording with you!
Hi Kristi, it will be wonderful to collaborate on Pretty little memories. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment on my lyrics, Kristi! Self-love and acceptance indeed!!
Many, many thanks for the listen and your kind and encouraging words...
You are very welcome Kristi, it was a pleasure
Hey, Kristi
Great to have you onboard again this year. Can't wait to see what comes out of your stable :)
Thanks, Kristi! I will look forward to seeing what I can come up with to compliment "No No." Of course, you have veto rights on whatever I suggest. Anyway, I'll work with it next week! Paul
Thank you so much for your comment on Skyscraper! Writing lyrics on random words has been much harder than expected. You should try one of the lyricloud skirmishes!
Thank you for your kind comments on Worst Christmas Ever. Yeah, allergies suck. I'm in a spot in life now where I say... no more pets. I'm feeling better because of it. And Karen...well... I'm moving away from Karen next month...just 10 or 15 minutes away, but far enough lol
Hey Kristi! I performed the song We Live Like We Live from 50/90 at a camp, and someone from the audience, Wayne Leiss, said that he knew you!
Thx for the kind words on The Butterfly Dance..summer is coming. Lol
Thanks Kristi!
Thanks, Kristi! Wishing you a wonderful FAWM as well.
Hi Kristi. I wish you a merry Fawm 2022.
Hey Kristi! So happy to see you here!
