Seriously, opinions stay opinions...

I don't blame Mystery for sounding harsh, because some writers really need this... I remmeber when Mystery said something about my older lyrics (when I started posting lyrics) I was about as pissed off as you guys, but in the end Mystery's opinion helped me become motivated and determined...

I'm still here. I'm still writing. I'm not stopping for an opinion - nor agrueing about one, but embracing each one; whiether it's an asshole comment or not.

Jackasses' have their reasons for this world - to motivate the non-asses to become something better.

Just how I look at the whole thing... I think you should, too. And opinions never suck.

Demon

Cute.
Don't ever expect to get published in any way with that attitude.

And demon, my opinion gets better or worse depending on the general level or ignorance/stupidity I have to deal with, usually people arent stupid, just slightly ignorant.

A close-minded attitude about music won't get you anywhere either.

Wait - I don't care where you go. Exit the thread and have a nice day.. : )

Sigh, if you didnt care you wouldn't be so highly offended.
Im not close minded, my music selection goes from the beatles to slipknot and children of bodom, im speaking of general experience.

Theres a different between being an asshole and giving harsh critique.

The point is, if you cant be productive with your (and this is putting it as lightly as I can allow myself to) "harsh attitude" then you've no business inserting yourself into the subject. Get over it.

there's really no need for this to continue, if both of you could ignore these posts it would be much better for everyone.

Vulgar man, this stuff is good. I don't discriminate against art, because whats good is good and this is damn good. Its like... Poetry. Like Im reading it Audiolizing it in my head and at the same time this Hawaiian flavored, island motif is popping into my head. I couldn't really critique it unless I could hear it you know? But what is here, look-sounds good to me.

Keep it coming.

I've said it many times, and ill say it even about what I or my favourite artists write.
Lyrics are not poetry.

Gnomes - Depends on how you value constructive, as they say, I can only show you door, it is up to you to open the door. I used to give detailed descriptions and advice but people dont listen, they feed of their own ego's and continue to write the same things over and over, failing miserable to achieve success or improvement.
I critisize rap, and this is just like any commercial rap. Look for the flaws in commercial rap, identify your own, im not doing your job for you if thats what you and 90% of the people who want "critisism" want.
Learn to handle critisism. Not object to it because it doesnt fit your needs of "creative"

A piece of literature written in meter; verse.
Prose that resembles a poem in some respect, as in form or sound.

OK Mr. Hostile. I said that it was -like- poetry being a compliment obviously.

Look, its easy to write angsty slow boring music (take a look at the forum), Maybe your opinions would have more weight here if you could actually say what makes this "wannabe rap" because it just sounds like your being prejudicious if you cant back up what you are saying. AND if you don't know why you dont like this then maybe you shouldnt have posted at all.

Im gonna make this pretty bald. Why do you want to fuck with me?
a) Shall I give you the tens of thousands of reasons why modern rap is basically shit? And everyone who tries to write it never gets above the bar set by the one rapper I consider to be good? I read this, it doesnt even touch my expectations of rap.
b)Slow angsty music? Im hella sure you arent refering to psychadelic rock/rock/metal(of any type)/jazz/blues? Thats what I write, thats what I will play should I make a band one day. Jazz is NOT easy to write you ignorent little dick. I dare you to try and compose jazz.
c)Hmmm yes, I wrote a song a while back that had a part "if you think you get the meaning in this song, look again". That line applies to the generic morons whom which you are part of.

Conclusion? Piss off wankballs, I've been writing music for ages, I've listened to all types and any and all opinions I have are based on something you lack that is called experience. What I write is based on my life and MY Idea's, if you don't get it, read point C again.

Im really starting to get pissed off at people, quote all the dictionary's you want, poetry is NOT lyricism, some of the things thamior writes are poetry, what most of us here write is NOT poetry. That is something you will only find out by experience.

It's your type of people that make the commercial music market succesful, you sicken me.

This guy just keeps on coming. You write jazz - that's good for you.. write a book. You're on the right website to do so. When you decide to read things you don't understand (Read the title, pissy poo) you'll end up catching feelings over the internet.

"It's your type of people"

Do you know what Logos listens to? Do you know what I listen to? Does it matter? Thenstead of directing your attention at everyone else you should - oh, wait, you shouldn't.. Stay the fuck off the grass. Sit down in your comfortable computer chair and put on a fake smile. Go criticize "Godcatchers" while you're at it. It's amusing to see what you think of it.
