Minimizing, distorting, or disregarding what people are trying to achieve is not helpful to anyone, The assumption that anyone on here thinks they are good is very unfair. On Chordie we do sometimes make the wrong trade-off by thinking that boosting a person's self-esteem is going to boost their performance, I think most people see chordie for what it is, just every day people having a bit of harmless fun looking to learn. I do accept that empty praise of telling someone they’re great, or pretending they are can become a problem and give them a false sense of their talent. I see chordie as an international party with a diverse range of people having fun doing what they love. Classical Guitar your posts on chordie I have enjoyed. You leaving chordie is a sad loss. All the very best for the future to you and your family.

Re: Jesus Is My Hero (18 replies, posted in Songwriting)
TIG your Mom what an inspirational lady. Your song is an exceptional piece of music. This one would work great with a piano a choir and someone with a great voice. I played part of your song on my piano and I found C E and F went real good with your lyrics. Where you play a G and and a D I was playing an E and a F. On guitar your original chords work good.

Hi Bill
I remember lots of good songs from the Jesus Rock era. Even Bob Dylan did a couple of christian albums. Billy Preston and many others. . Edwin Hawkin singers has got a a thrashing on my turntable over the years. Thank you Bill it is a Genre I love given ,my faith. Here is a favourite tune I like.

I will also attach this link below of Barry Mcquire been interviewed with his guitar . He got known as a Jesus type folk singer. He is highly entertaining and a man who thinks alot like I do. He is not what I would call a holy roller but still a man of faith and fun character.

Re: copyright question (11 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Even listening to your song Phill I couldn't give you a safe answer. The New Zealand Enimen case took along time because of all the differant expert opnions. One thing for sure is I am not an expert in this area. It is a bit like taking a bet on a racehorse. My sister is an expert on race horses even she can't pick the winner of a horse race.
The New Zealand defenition of an expert is a Ex Spurt is a drip under pressure

Re: Underneath Your Breath - Recording on SC (1 replies, posted in Songwriting)
It is a song that has a good country quality to it TIG. For me writing good songs is a mystery I have been trying now for about three years I just can't put it together. I wrote some songs also back nearly forty years ago they werent that good either.
