Well, being pretty much a nobody, I don't expect to have any reputation just yet, but the song I recorded with ex-Yngwie vocalist Mark Boals must have been heard by, what... 60,000 people?MadManMustard said:I'm just saying that obviously seeing as how none of us have written a song that is truly amazing, and has become know among the masses,
On the other hand, my own solo stuff is my pride and joy. It may have only sold a couple of thousand copies, but I much prefer that stuff and it, to me, is very satisfying. It's not any less of an artistic success because commerially it wasn't as far-reaching as the song with Mark. So the "known among the masses" aspect is not a criteria I use for judging my work on a creative level.
There are so many great musicians posting at the UM forums. I don't think you should speak for them. I think many of them write great songs.that none of us can claim to have that level of creativity which is required to write a great song.
Believe and achieve, it won't work the other way around!!!
