While no one, aside from those involved in the creation of the song, will know exactly how much effort and time went into a finished song, you always will and that's something to be proud of. I think music will always be incredibly therapeutic; both for the listener and also the composer.<br /><br />I actually played in a little punk band in high school. We were callled The Obese Little Kitties (i know, i know....but, it was between that or His and Herpes) and we were terrible. All on songs were about very dumb things and the finished songs were wretched. We knew our songs were bad but the process of getting to that finished product was beautiful and that's what I really cherish from those days.Patrick Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16597446045629046985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4645591296340972906.post-55122937963275972132010-03-07T14:45:27.087-05:002010-03-07T14:45:27.087-05:00I disagree, the songs you wrote freshman year were...I disagree, the songs you wrote freshman year were great! <br /><br />I tried to write a song once during high school. Like you, the driving force behind my attempt was a relationship gone wrong. It wasn't very good, but the only reason I gave up on it was because I forgot how to play it lol.Sandi M.

My inspiration to sing or play usually stems out of a need to relieve stress as well, but sometimes I just find myself in such a good mood that I decide to sing showtunes at the top of my lungs, and I think both those occasions are equally important to me as an outlet for self-expression. <br /><br />I really like your creation, and it was neat for me to be able to see firsthand your process of writing it, practicing it, tweaking it.Ashley Showenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961666304183525679noreply@blogger.com
