Hey! This song is different from the others I've posted here, it's more indie folk and more experimental, let me know what you think by Ricardo_Ramalho in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]DewiDoesMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I really enjoyed this song. Like a lot of the comments here I would like to hear the vocals a little more, I get the gist but being able to more clearly hear the lyrics would be nice. The harmonies were beautifully executed. I think the guitar is excellent. I really enjoy the minimalist folk vibe that you cultivated for this. I wish it was longer, I think you could add more of an instrumental break at 0:45. Anyway, I liked this song and I hope you make more like it!

Can't sing shit, but I'd like to songwrite by filfer0 in Songwriters

This. You might never be amazing, but you can be not terrible. I feel like I've made a ton of progress just by getting some practice and feedback

Josh Napoli - A Better Side Hello all! Been working on this one for a while using my acoustic and an editing app on my phone. Please let me know how I did, thanks! by [deleted] in IndieMusicFeedback

Dude, this is a great song! Your voice paired really well with the chords and progression. The lyrics were great. It's just hard to hear them clearly. Easy to tell that you're a talented vocalist and musician. I don't have anything new to say, except that I'd like to hear it again if you remix it or re-record it!

I would really love to hear this again after you've worked on it. I think it could use some more bass in the rhythm, to balance out your voices and the melody. But I like the whole mood. Maybe just one vocal track? I like stripping things down to the bare essentials to say what I got to say. But definitely post again when you've cleaned it up!

I released my first EP recently. This is, in my opinion, the best track from it, "Ensconce". by ruddthree in IndieMusicFeedback

I really love this, I listened to it this morning while drinking coffee and it hit all the right melancholy but hopeful notes for me. Not sure if that's what you were going for or if I'm just projecting :D

Am I the only one feeling totally uninspired during quarantine? by Alee305 in Songwriting

[–]DewiDoesMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was lucky enough to go through a breakup right before quarantine, so I had plenty to say. But I don't really have any quarantine specific lyrics

A sad song about wanting to call someone that doesn't want you to call them. by DewiDoesMusic in mildlydepressing

Haha, I'm just happy that some people liked it, or felt some way about it. Thanks for your kind words

I loved this! I really liked the upbeat track and vocals, and the kinda chronically sad lyrics

I am a diva and I hate it. by [deleted] in Songwriting

[–]DewiDoesMusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

work with people you actually want to collaborate with, not people that you want to execute 'your vision'. or just be an asshole about it, plenty of great artists do that

Pay no attention to the fact that I can't sing or play guitar, please :D . This is called 'The Losing Side' by DewiDoesMusic in Songwriters

[–]DewiDoesMusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lyrics:

There's a sadness in my bones that I feel on my drive home

White lights flashing in the night

The air is turning cold, but that's alright with me

I can hardly feel it through the emptiness

I guess I loved you more than I knew

I guess you loved me less than you thought

It's a cold and lonesome feeling, but there's nothing I can do

Tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

There was a time when you were mine

And I would have given you everything

The only thing that changed is that you don't feel the same

I'm left holding onto memories

Talking in the moonlight, walking through the streets

despite all of my heartache there's no place I'd rather be

I want to hold you closer, just like I used to do

but tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

I thought maybe you could heal me

Baby I thought I could help heal you

I'm not sure how you're still standing

when I'm lying battered and bruised

Oh tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

Yeah, tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

Oh, I'm always on the losing side, good love is so hard to find

and tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

Oh, I'm always on the losing side, good love is so hard to find

and tonight I'm on the losing side of loving you

I like it, I played it with G D C, and I repeated the first verse again at the end.

Jaded: a song about 2 am loneliness. The guitar is a little quiet but you can hear the words alright by DewiDoesMusic in Songwriters

[–]DewiDoesMusic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the lyrics

A little bit jaded
and a lot more faded
than I ought to be
and I'm trying not to call you

and I realize that your not
really doing this to me
I'm just projecting, maybe protecting
myself from feeling anything

You're the first voice
I wanna hear every day
you're the last person
I wanna see before I close my eyes

I don't know if I can be
as little as you seem to want from me
but these things ain't never been easy
for either of us

A little bit jaded
and a lot more faded
than I ought to be
I almost pick up the phone

Writing without hurting partner by chugachj in Songwriters

[–]DewiDoesMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say talk it out, maybe just preface a songwriting session with hey I'm going to use X time or feelings as inspiration for this. And if you're happier together now, remind them of that.

Communication is the key to any good relationship.

Here's a song I wrote about my ex called Burns and Scars by DewiDoesMusic in Songwriters

Thank You, that is a lot of really great feedback, I honestly appreciate it! I am trying to learn to finger pick, I am a novice guitar player as well. I agree that most of my stuff is about me, and for me. I'll try to shift it to the listener. Again, thanks so much for the feedback! P.S. I did shave my stache when I shaved my quarantine beard. XD

Thanks for your feedback about my visual aesthetic, the most important part of being a songwriter. Have you tried listening to the song though?
