Can I ask, which song(s) you listened to? I love you and when you cry are the two that I wrote.
I listened to "When you cry."
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. So what your saying, is considering the fact that I suck at guitar (by my words, not yours ), and I can't sing (once again, my words, lol) it's not too bad? lol.
I have just gotten to where I am able to play and sing at the same time. It's hard and I can only really do it with stuff that I wrote, or stuff that has a basic strum pattern.
No, actually, it sounds decent, overall. Your tempo problem is probably a symptom of your just now getting to the point of singing and playing simultaneously.
Personally, I've been playing guitar since the 1980s and I have a 4.5 octave voice, and I couldn't do that song that well. I simply haven't been able to coordinate that whole singing and playing thing yet. (I haven't practiced it much, honestly- its something that hits my frustration barrier quickly.)
One last thing, you say your one of ENworlds musicians as well, you have any examples? I always enjoy new artists.
I've never recorded any of my playing beyond a few things where I'm trying to master a difficult section of a classical piece, and that only on cassette tape.
I know-
very 20th Century. Its just that I have issues with being the center of attention. But for some time as a cellist and singing in Church (or my car) my musicianship has largely been for my own enjoyment.
I'm in the process of buying my first amp this year- a Fender HRD- and I just found out someone I've known for a few years now is a fellow musician (we'd just never talked about it)...and he has recording gear.
Perhaps one day- maybe this year- I'll get some sound clips out on the internet.
I don't know your taste in music, but 2 other musicians on EMWorld are Nyaricus (

You can find them (and maybe others) by following the Metal School link in my sig.
