I think I'll have some of my own songs played.
It sorta like a captured audience and no one's going to say that one was real cra.....  well not there anyway
I only hope that can I look down or up and see the reaction....

Hey JustDeb
First don't beat yourself up about it we all started somewhere.
Sounds to me like your using an open mic here to record? Not the best way of getting your guitar track down lots of background noise and such.
Even the best guitarist down sound so hot through an open mic recorded.
If you got an electro acoustic then find some way to plug your guitar directly into the PC.
The Audacity program is good I've used it alot on all my songs and is free to download.
Your playing is ok for a newbie finding there way just gotta work on it.
Good Luck

Well done. I think in they look more for personality in these auditions than choice of song and the ability to hold perfect pitch.
As Zurf says pick a song you know well and can perform confidently.
Let your personality do the rest.
and good luck

Another good country song from you here.
How's the country CD coming along.
Hope the thumbs not giving you to much gip.

To me melody comes first and foremost in my songs.
Lyrics are secondary and to me hard to produce.
Saying that I've written songs both ways.
But I prefer the freedom of not having to tailor melody to suit lyrics.

I'm sorry this type of post comes up time and time again on Chordie and they make me 
Good advice from all as always but it always makes me think of the old adage of " The Cart before the Horse"
Maybe its just me. I think Roger's got it just about right here.

It's always hard to present a melody in a sorta DIY tab form on Chordie. Most members here won't have the time or inclination to workout what you have in mind. So they won't comment.
I know as most of my songs have been instrumentals which I present in a finished form ie recorded and put on Myspace for anyone to hear if they are curious enough.
Chords and lyrics are more easy to understand in written form and have a go at and therefore invite more comments.
So get down and record it. I would like to hear it.

I know a guy who got done for this.
He walked out without paying for a new set of Martins
He said they sorta fell into his pocket

The format to chopro (What is used here) is found in the sticky post at the top of the songwriting forum.
Also this website http://webchord.sourceforge.net/ is a good place to try out your song in the correct format.
