Slow Motion I just finished redoing this song. This was written in February for a random collaboration during FAWM. The lyrics were written by John Nicholson (who I believe is now a BIAB user as well.) He provided the lyrics and I came up with the music with the help of BIAB. About two weeks ago John asked about using the song on a compilation album to benefit Autism research. I agreed but wanted to rework and polish it a bit first. This is the final product. Slow MotionReal Tracks: 536:Bass, Acoustic, Pop 528:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Hank 1140:Guitar, Electric,Rhythm Country Swing Clean Held 1142:Ukulele, Strumming Folk Swing Real Drums=Nashville Swing Lyrics: People tell me everyday Time so quickly passes away There’s never time to do it all Somethings always left however small That may very well be true It even used to be my point of view But now there's just no reason or rhyme I never seem finish on time No matter how hard I try Or whatever is my notion. Everything I want to do Seems to go on in slow motion Time keeps fading in and out Everything I start to doubt Yesterday seems years ago 6 years seems five minutes I know I’m trying hard to put things back in order Using CD video and tape recorder I remember when I was a boy I can clearly see each childhood toy But yesterdays just a mystery Might as well be ancient history No matter how hard I try Or whatever is my notion. Everything I want to do Seems to go on in slow motion Incase you are interested you can listen to the original demo version of this song >>>Here<<<

Seems like it might be an Apple issue, Bud - Musicoin works fine on Windows.
Nice relaxed vibe to the song, Samuel- I like the lyrics, your strong vocals... and the Uke!
Hope this does well as a fundraiser for the cause.

Robert Yep Joanne has confirmed other Apple folks have had issues. I have the most recent iMac, OS and Browser. If Musicoin doesn't support the Apple world they're in for a rough ride.

Worked fine on my Mac. The album popped out, and didn't play initially. All I had to do was click on the Play Song button, and it played.
Nice relaxing listen to a well written song. Good job on this!

Nice work on this one, Samuel  I like how chill it is. I'm definitely getting some Hawaii vibes here. It's like cotton candy on the ear, how smooth and sweet this sounds! Really strong vocals, and I love the lyrics you chose here. Great job, and thanks for sharing!

Thanks everyone. Like Steve said sometimes on the musicoin site you have to press play at the bottom of the screen. I have that issue sometimes on my android phone. The site is pretty new and will probably get better over time but the concept is nice.
As for the song I like how it turned out. I may use it on an album of my own in the future as well.
