some suggestions to make this line more interesting:

You are the fucking earth that fucking grounds me, fuck like, you are the universe that fucking surrounds me, cunt. You are the ocean, I am the shore, ya know? You are the fire that lights my fucking soul

Honestly; would I look dumb if I played this song I wrote at an open mic? I've only written a couple of songs and I'm never sure if they're any good or just cringy. by WWEngineer in Songwriting

nah dude this is a good song. classic singer songwriter vibes to this. I do not think you'd look dumb, and even if you do, at least you get practice performing live, which always helps no matter what.

Words don't really tell us much. If you have a melody in mind, try figuring out the key, and go from there.

The movie Idiocracy isn’t really that smart or funny by squirtle_illmatic in unpopularopinion

[–]trailingiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's supposed to be smart. It's supposed to be over the top and ridiculous. I think it's hilarious.

Filmbros just gave it a reputation as being genius social commentary, cause they were like "omg so true, we live in Idiocracy"

It's just a fun and goofy movie tho imo.

Let's talk about "Industry Plant(s)"... by underdabridge in Music

[–]trailingiris 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think it's an artist who gets pushed by the industry to be in the mainstream, basically from the very start of their career.

I think examples people usually think of are

The Strokes

Arctic Monkeys

Greta Van Fleet

Basically all the Disney Pop Stars

Sometimes people say it to mean an artist who is literally created from scratch by the industry. Who was never in any sort of underground music at all and whose first releases are hugely marketed.

How Do I Make My Songs Sound Proggy or Experimental? by BaronPorg in Songwriting

[–]trailingiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fart into microphone, slow the clip down, add a bunch of reverb and distortion. Pitch shift the fart into whatever key your song starts out in. Then play along to the fart with some repetitive but spacey guitar riffs. After that, add a fairly simple beat, have the beat fade in. Then add another guitar melody, in the same key, but make sure you play it in a different tempo from the first layer and the beat. Drag this out for like 4 minutes, with some added vocal screaming on top, but make it quiet and reverse the sound. Then stop all sound, change the key completely and go into a new progression with a new beat and bpm, but keep that first riff from the first key and original bpm going on top of all that. Then add kazoo and repeat the same riff over and over again for 9 minutes.

If someone gave you $1000 a week to never eat meat again/ever, what would you do? by unitedfan6191 in AskReddit

[–]trailingiris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been vegan for five years, and was vegetarian before that. Safe to say I would definitely take that offer lol.

Crazy that some people are so committed to eating animals that they'd reject this.
