Dear Will,

aside from the musical gems this forum has a loz more in store: for instance nice guys like you must be one. And a lot of practical advice: like yous on DistroKid, which I will definitely have a closer look at - thanks a lot!

And I guess that this goes for you , too: It expands my English vocabulary on a daily basis.

And every now and then it brings up something unexpected: In this case the phrase you used: 'Been there, done that'. That reflects very much the state of mind I am in when it comes to my personal aims now that 'nothing's easy anymore'.

I'm glad the 'rat race' is over and I'm happy to be able to stick to what I really like to spend my time with - I am not going to start chasing clouds anymore.

And I'm very well aware of the fact that there are so many people out there who don't have that privilege at all.

I really love your look at life.

Take care,

Stefan

Dear Will,

thanks a lot for the tip and the URL. What a difference... wow, 80% less than YouTunez...

My YT contract ends in July and of course I will change over to DistroKids after that, because you can't really do anything wrong for 20 bucks..

Thanks again and have a great day.

Regards,

Stefan

Hi Will,

That is a great song and I can see why someone would interested in it. But, as everyone has said, you have to be careful about the business side of things. It appears you have received and accepted excellent advice from the great and knowledgeable folks on these boards.

Whatever happens, I wish good luck with the song - it truly is a terrific song! Best to you ...

Alan

Hi Alan,

Thank you for listening and your kind words about the song!

Yes, I have come to appreciate the members of this forum more and more. It is very good advice you can get from the experienced people here. I'm so thankful that you all take the time to help - not just me - but so many people here who sometimes find themselves lost in the wilderness of the music industry.

All the best to you!
Will
