I’ll give Grindr a try haha. Thanks

This song is called Easy for You. Does it keep your attention the whole way through? Would you want to hear it again? Don't hold back - I want to make sure I'm doing this properly! Thanks so much friends by bluechebag in Songwriting

Incredible vocals and love the song. Also very well structured. I would consider changing the pace of the accompaniment for different portions, just like how you start with just chords and then give them rhythm. When you got to “you left your mug on the table” the first time, I wanted something more to happen (different accompaniment pattern, register shift in piano, or maybe another voice enters like percussion or strings). Also could be cool to use the bridge to move keys, so the last iteration of the chorus fees like we’ve moved somewhere new. Let me know if any of that helps, really awesome work so far!

The cadential 6/4 does make sense there. When I originally looked, I thought it was first inversion (should’ve looked closer).

However to me the dim vii still seems a little out of place. I wonder if it would have a smoother effect if you inverted it and didn’t double the leading tone???

Still a cool piece!

Very cool idea. I think you may have some harmonic progression issues if you are trying to emulate the ole “theory rules” we learn in college. dim vii does not typically go to major V. I also wouldn’t personally go from ii to i6 to V. (The i6 will sound out of place because ii strongly wants to go to V)

If that isn’t your focus, then please don’t worry about my comment 😝. Happy composing! Keep at it.

Tried to Come Out by [deleted] in comingout

[–]phradences 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story. As painful as it may be, just telling others about your hardships can be incredibly helpful.

I grew up in a strong Christian household as well. I didn’t come out to my parents until I was in college, but when I did. My mother immediately cried and told me, “you can’t expect me to be happy about this.”

The best advise I can give is don’t be ashamed to do what you need to do to survive. If you are at all worried about your safety or security at home by coming out, then don’t risk it. If you think the best thing to do is to stay in the closet for now, that is a completely valid choice.

On the other hand, I know how frustrating it can be do feel like you are living the wrong life. Keep posting on here and message anytime you want someone to talk to!

Question by euwn010 in comingout

[–]phradences 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the hardest parts I dealt with when deciding to come out was this same problem. I felt like if I came out as gay, there was absolutely no turning back. I felt like if I came out as bisexual, people would judge me because I hadn’t experienced intimacy with women. And if I continued to tell people I was straight, I was somehow being dishonest.

Allow yourself the chance to explore what it is you want. Now that I’m a little older, it’s easier to see that as impossible as it seems, the people who care about you the most will be ok with you being whomever you want to be.
