Hi
I like this song of yours
Your production skills, and musical skills are to be envied.
Your song lyrics are to the point, really upfront.
...
I have to say
It's what you write about
music business and the different creative approaches
that really make me think.

You've been about in the business and about , trying to get into the business too.

My Music means a lot to me personally So I continue with it.
If I can be as good, in my own way, as Cohen, Dylan, Reed are good their ways.
I will without hesitation, be able to consider myself as artistically Successful.
I consider this a realistic ambition.
Realising it would mean a lot to me and wouldn't have to mean anything to anyone else.

... to some that might sound romantic, but
     I find that generally, ladies have difficulty with it
      When they realise that their charming partner
       isn't really interested in keeping up with the jones's. Etc.

The little i've seen of the business side of music
And even just audio editing
I've found repulsive to varying degrees.

I've friends about that still inform me of their next schemes to turn music into money.
I try to stay polite, but it's tiring.
If I were to, even try to write for commercial success I'm sure the results would be a grotesque failure, and the road to it would be silly. I'd be striving to become a 2nd rate imitation, at best.
   How do I become an Asian elvis presley impersonator.
Life is elsewhere.

Sorry, I get sidetracked with this business issue.

Elvis Nash you've a wealth of verifiable talent.
I think you're blessed!

It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Don't eat the yellow snow

And there you have it.

Hi @Elvis Nash

I'm not sure what I am listening to here. Is this a song you have written and produced for another artist? Is it a co-write / production?

Please let me know.

In any event, this is clearly a professional production and what I would call a 'proper' song.

I'm keen to understand what your involvement is though.

Things are looking up , I caught a 12 lb cat fish yesterday Nick . Well actually I was watching TV , the kid next to me jumped over the deck and reeled him in , but on my pole , so I'm claiming my fish. Maybe I should join the derby this weekend pay 10 bucks and catch the biggest catfish and win 5k . Of course these guys that travel 100's of miles to fish the derby have 60k boats and are sponsored by Budweiser, with 70k trucks pulling the boat .

Really accomplished, pro work. Fab listen. Keep on keeping on. I hear ya brother! It’s so tough out there getting exposure etc. But we’re all doing this for the love, right. The rest we can’t take with us anyway, so just enjoy the ride (and fishing) regardless. Big love, Caz x

No I'm not doing this for love , I'm doing this to ROI , Maybe 30 years ago it was for love , You don't invest 20 years of you life on any business to not make a profit .  I don't think of money producing a song , But when its done , I do think... I wonder if this song will ROI .
Lets lighten the mood , Yes 2 poles in the water and a dog .
Thanks for listening
