I KNEW IT!!!!! Im afraid we're going to have to officially withdraw your "Songwriter Ninja Of The Year" award on the basis that you have been previously recognised as an AWESOME songwriter. If anyone should have the ninja award it should be @geenaizzy. She entered a song EVERY SINGLE WEEK and did NOT get the recognition she deserved.....she's a lovely songwriter with a really sweet delivery. We should totally make this award for her.....
You're right, @geenaizzy is a lovely lady, full of many talents, along with that charming Aussie accent. I'm checking out her "Outtakes" video right now, and I totally relate with that. Reminds me of a subtle comment @onetruebrother made at the end of one of his vids: "...take 100," and then he breathes a sigh of relief because he finally has a proper recording. I have some outtakes videos too, and they largely involve the kids and cats making loud noises in the background.
One thing I notice about @onetruebrother's songs is consistency. Each of his vids is nicely captured on camera, and the audio quality is solid too. These vids of mine are pretty embarrassing, as far as the recordings go. I've got some nice camera gear, you know, and I really outta figure out how to shoot a proper selfie! I think presentation is an important part of the #openmic, and rightly so.
@meno, I treasure your words here. Thank you. Yes, I remember that week. It was my most difficult song to write–the one that pushed me to grow most of all. It felt substantial to "go there" to that deep emotional space, and explore a certain sadness that exists down in my soul.
