Influences: I'm especially inspired by lyrics that make you feel, of course, but I am a sucker for lyrics that, in addition to making you feel, are bursting with poetry or thought-provoking messages.
I am a lyric writer only so I'm looking for collaborations. This is my third FAWM and I've also done two 50/90s now. All have been amazing experiences. The talent and camaraderie here are always so inspiring. I've got lots of ideas for this year and my goal is for more poetic lyrics. I work really hard to make my lyrics super "singable." PLEASE just ask me when you'd like to collaborate. Thanks! Hope you are having a great FAWM!

Ok, already started listening to Neko Case just a few minutes ago.. I love it!! <3
Hii, I don't know neko case π But I'm gonna listen to it tonight π Thanks!
Thanks for your lovely comments, it has now been set to music. My collab partner did a fab job π
Doug.....it appears that everyone is collaborating with you on lyrics this year. If you find a set you write that you would like my style on, let me know. I really love working with you. So, it seems, does everyone else!!!!
Hi Doug, i'd like to do "Into the Storm". Remembering "Write your Dreams" started a fitting melody in my head
Thanks for the listen! Looks like youβve been busy. Happy FAWM!
Thank you for the kind words on mine and Cindys Jail-collab
Hey! Thanks for the lovely comment! I'm releasing my first single soon. No date set but we're working on artwork and a few technical issues right now. I'll let you know when it's all out. Now, I'm gonna listen to some of your songs! π
Thanks for your comments on "Burned". Thanks for listening.
Thanks for the kind words on "Get Yourself Together". I went in a different direction with that one but not too far from my roots. The song has the feel of the first band I was in.
Thank you for the kind words on "Lightning." Yeah, it doesn't always happen like that but I never really bind myself into structures of any sort. I just write what comes. Some are more traditional, but this FAWM especially so far they've been a little left of center. I'm glad you are enjoying them though! I really appreciate you listening. I'm catching up the next few days in listens/comments. Work's been so busy I haven't been able to much the past couple days. π
Thanks for listening to βItβs Too Cold (Take Off Your Coat).β Glad you enjoyed it, appreciate the comments. π
Thanks for you kind comments on βI flyβ - colleen did a fab job and her voice really shone π
Thanks so much for the listen! Iβm so glad you liked it!
Hi! Thank you for the kind words on my song - much appreciated.
Really appreciate the appreciation on "The Way You Do." Thanks.
Omg you're making me blush π
im glad you enjoyed ive seen everyone man. my original lyric as much longer but, although i wanted it to test the audiences patience until they gave up and just started laughing, 30 minutes was much to long, so i cut it down quite a bit. thank you for listening and taking the time to leave a comment.
Haii, thanks Crisp π gonna discover your music tonight. FAWM isn't really good for effectiveness at the office π
Nice to meet you!
Thanks for stopping by and listening!
Thank you Crisp, for taking a listen to "I Can Love You Today" I think this ones a keeper, too. So glad you enjoyed it! Looks like you're collaborating away. Isn't it great to be here?
Thanks for taking the time to listen to The Long Forgotten. I've added a mostly-accurate transcription. Looks like I have some catching up to do on your fine lyrics!
Thanks for your lovely comments on my collab w guatecoop π
A couple of days or so would suit me fine to work through a couple of other things. As for genre, I've always fancied trying something along the lines of 'Red Right Hand' by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. You can find the lyrics here: https://genius.com/Nick-cave-and-the-...
I hope that gives you something to work on. I look forward to hearing the results.
Hey there, thanks for the nice comment! Yes, FAWM is awesome and I never ever can predict where each one will go.... always a surprise.
Hi there. We have been paired together for Round 2 of the Random Collab challenge. Would you like me to use some existing lyrics or would you like to email me some new ones specifically for the challenge? If the latter then please send them to andybalham at hotmail dot com. I look forward to hearing from you and getting to work. Andy
Thank you for your observant and kind words about my song Bullied.
Thanks for the kind words and correction on "Trying Hard to Breath". Yeah, I'm just trying whatever I think might work. I've been doing a lot more recording on my own so I'm getting a lot more comfortable testing things out.
Thanks for commenting on my first FAWM song!
Hi, I'm always on the look out for lyrics to interpret in FAWM. Would you mind if I kept an eye on yourself to see if I can come up with something for one of your ideas?
Thank you for you very kind words on "What Will Become of Us". Nice to see this one resonating with folks.
Aw, thank you for the really nice comment! I so appreciate it.
Hi Doug! Thank you for the sweet note. Youβre right, anything is better than nothing. I hope we can collaborate again, at some point!
Can't wait to see what you come up with this FAWM season!
Looking forward to working together again this year!
I gotta say, "Ozymandias and The Level Sands" is a really awesome band name. Well done.
Love your lyrics! Happy FAWM.
Happy FAWM.
Hey crisp1! Happy FAWM 2019!!!
Hi Doug, I also look forward to your contributions! Have a nice time
Thanks Doug! I feel good. Great to hear from you and glad to see you back around for this wonderful madness!
So far I have earned an Alexander Hamilton and a Jefferson but I think ASCAP would be smart to send a check! LOL! Great to see you again my friend and hope we can create together again.
Howdy! Happy FAWMing to you!
