On this latest song, the guitarist did a backing vox in the chorus and I took my vocal line to an AI site and had a 3rd and 5th done to it. Amazing results, but I may not use them.

I dont want to rely on robots. That would freeze me at my current musical skill levels. Any teenager can learn to plug in robots. I like drilling down into the parts of the song. It takes some time.
My various skills are nothing exceptional in the real music world and I know it. I've sat down with guitarists who couldn't get calls in Nashville and been blown away. The guitarist on this latest one sat down with Vince Gill and tried out for his tour a few years ago. Didn't get it, but he is still very good.

The reality is that it is very unlikely that I am not better than you at all aspects of my songwriting hobby, but I see myself in comparison to real good players and you see yourself in comparison to people that hang out at the donut shop.

Dunning Kruger.

That should give you and your gossip girls something to PM about. wink

Lmao. Quick question, do you listen to your songs?

Player? Your songs are about as basic as can get. Lyrically relying on .. hey it's my Hallmark so leave me alone"

Look it doesn't matter, just mind your own business
