Kenny. I am glad you enjoyed "I Think I better go". It was one of my favorites this FAWM.

Joe - Thanks for taking the time to listen

PeterF - Thanks for listening and commenting on "It dont belong to me"

Misha - I am glad you enjoyed "Fake it" and "Let Me be Me". I have already been performing the second one one for a live audience and it went down well.

Another good composition...
I looked it up but I'm not sure about a "RTGS"...
I enjoyed your usual good work on this one!
BTW... Why do you think there are not a lot more lady songwriters on the PG forum...
There are a lot of them participating in FAWM...
Perhaps they haven't discovered how helpful Biab is to songwriters... laugh

I think many ladies are put off with how complicated home recording seems to be. But even on FAWM I think if you were to count you would find many more men than women participating. There are a few woman on FAWM who use BIAB but the only one who participates here (there I know of) is Donna. I do think we need to encourage more woman. I do try to sing the praises of BIAB and know of at least one lady songwriter who has purchased the product as a result.

Herb. Thanks for giving some songs more than the 30 seconds smile I appreciate it.

I am glad you like I See You. I did something a little different on this one. I wanted to use Bob Dylan's Lay Lady Lay chord progression but couldn't come up with up a nice smooth sexy type of lyric. So I took a lyric that I had written (and recorded) a couple of years ago and tried to put it to this progression.

I thought I had ended up with a brand new song but when I listen to them one after the other I cannot believe how similar they are! I guess once you have a melody in your brain for a set of lyrics it is hard to shake it off.

Fascinating that the melody ended up almost the same but the chord progression is wildly different. I will have to study that sometime. I think I need to plot the vocals side by side in Melodyne and see what they look like.

I am glad you liked "Fake It". I thought the lyric was a little predictable but I do like how the song turned out.

Another good little love song...
Warning: Don't let this guy meet your best ex-friend Elaine... wink

Thanks for explaining "Real Time Gross Settlement"...
As well as your thoughts on the lady songwriters question...
I do hope that those who use Biab will start to take advantage of the Showcase PG has graciously given us!

Joanne, I haven't been online in a while, but this post caught my eye. I haven't listened to them all yet, but the one that really sticks in my mind so far is "It don't belong to me". It is a stripped down mix, but it really would work as an acoustic piece. The catchy melody sticks in your head and I think it make a great choice for the acoustic performance. When I listen to the rest I will post again. Be well, be happy. Wonderful tune.

Your version takes Metalfoots lyrics & progression in a different & solid direction...
I like the backing tracks you chose...
You did a really good job on this one...

Hi Joanne,

I finally had the time to listen to all your songs (except for Halcyon Days which I couldn't get to play).
Generally it is very impressive that you could come up with all these songs in such a short time!


My favorite songs are:

I Am Woman (by far the best song in my humble opinion)
I Think I Better Go
Fake It

and...
It Don't Belong To Me (because of the very good lyrics - not my style of music)

I liked the lyrics of "The Weathers Really Good Here" as well,
but I would have loved a more Afro-inspired style (in the backing-tracks) in order to
honor where your inspiration to the lyrics came from.


All in all... you did an amazing job at FAWM 2019 and I really enjoyed spending time listening to all these songs!

Thank you for sharing!
Will

Thanks so much. I think this one is a definite keeper.

Jim - Thanks so much for listening and commenting on all these songs. You are a star! I am still waiting to hear from the festival to see if I have a spot but once I have it I am going to start preparing my set and recording an album. I am hopefully also going to be doing some guitar lessons to get myself upto scratch in that department.
