So I have been listening to some of my music lately and I realize that it sounds a lot like, well...nothing. Its too basic. Bothers me.
I listen to Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" and I can play it on the guitar, but it doesn't sound like it. I understand that there's more instrumentation, but what is it that makes it so different from what I'm doing? I know my songs are better than just okay, and more than fine. Why don't I believe that they are?
Musicians Jam went great last night, by the way. I played "Lollipop" by Lil Wayne (yeah, a hip hop song) and everyone loved it. I might try to do that every week, some obscure hip hop cover that everyone will get. We'll see.
I just wish I could write some new things. I don't want to write about my own life and sound precocious either. What happened to the lyricist in me!
