No thanks, close this window
Heard Yellow Brick! Dig the rhythm & chording. Not a fan of the change when you sing Oz...but other than that...LOVE!!! It manages to have an 80, 90 & current sound all at once. Nice... ~GP
Thanks for the great review! So appreciate it. I wrote this after watching some politicians lie on TV (which is about every second - LOL!) All about money...wish it wasn't...
I really dig it!
Puts a smile on my face!
check out my new song that November when you get a chance. Oh and half broken heart too!
Thank you for the review of "Ellie May". I appreciate the feedback.
Hope it was constructive. Songwriting...such a subjective business, but we are lucky we do it! Have a great one... Andrea
Hi Andrea, A quick thank you for a very constructive and fair review of I Really Want You Tonight. Just been listening to A Day I Won't Forget and loved it! The song paints great pictures and the performance/ production is absolutely top class stuff - congratulations on a very fine track indeed. If I get a chance I will be back to listen to more. Thanks again, Bob
You are very welcome and thank you so much for listening to one of mine songs and for the kind comments as well - very much appreciated. Songwriting - we are definitely the lucky ones to be able to write songs. Sometimes I forget how lucky we are!! Hope to hear from you soon. xox
Beautiful new country duet!!"a day I won't forget"!!!!:))
You are so nice to say so! Tim and I really enjoyed writing this - it came pretty quickly and just felt right. Again, so appreciate your kind remarks! xox
Surely!!! All the best to ya! oxo:)
Hi Andrea, Nice job on Don't Worry, I Know.
Thanks Brian. It was my first co-write with Michael Garvin (he's had over 400 cuts, and once was Nashville's Songwriter Of The Year)...my mother-in-law was very ill and I told my husband I was going to cancel my flight into Nashville for the co-write to stay with him, but he insisted I go. On the plane, I wrote the song, from my husband's point of view within things we talked about and feelings he shared. I took that song to Michael, who loved it, and the finished demo is what you hear. I know in my heart it was meant to be written, and that song is maybe the greatest gift I've ever been able to give my husband. Life wrote it...but life always writes the good songs...
How touching, Andrea. I went back and read the lyrics. I see now that some of my constructive comments were unfounded. The hook does tie in with the verses. It was hard for me to follow without the lyrics in front of me. My apologies. This must have been difficult to write. Beautiful.
xox
Some fun track on here Andrea! ~GP
Thanks so much!
NP. Check out my tracks when you can!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE "Love Me/Hate Me" - simply a great song :)
TY so much! It was on BJam Earth last I knew...I haven't looked this morn. yet. Co-wrote that w/my 18 yo cousin Marc who is a freshman at Berklee! Kid is gonna be a star! Hoping I can get it onto the big screen first...its a tune we can all relate to
Indeed, and great for Sync. You should send some of your stuff to Jingle Punks. They want exclusives, but they are about the best in the biz for getting placements. I think they would love your stuff...just a thought :) I will keep an eye out for Marc - he's got talent, but then so do you!!
awww ty...thats sweet. So do u missy ;) Are you involved in all aspects of your tracks including vox?
I looked at the site...it confusing to me. It APPEARS like there is a waiting list to submit songs??? Plz inbox me when you have sec ok>? You rock! :)
You submit and they review. If they like, they contract for them exclusively and agencies, music supervisors, etc. use them in commercials, film, tv sync, etc.
I don't sing. I am the founder of Songsinc and I produce a lot of the songs members send in using other vocalists and working with our studio in Nashville.
Looks like a 50/50 dealie...kind of a bummer lol
Andrea, What a beautiful song "What A Memory" is. Well done.
Brian, I am in awe of your songwriting. "The Day You Died" allows the listener an intimate look, if only for a moment, into your heart. It was a privilege to listen and to have been allowed in. I appreciate your comments about "What A Memory" but please know how much I appreciate your talent.
Andrea, You are so kind and sweet. Thank you. I appreciate your talent as well. The melody in What A Memory is powerful as is the song. I look forward to exploring your impressive catalog.
Hello Andrea, love your bio. Thanks for reviewing my vintage song, Who Can Stand Before His cold? (not hope) I grew up in CA climbing trees, too. Now I am a full time kids and family touring artist, and love my work. Catcha later! Mrs Kate
Hey Kate, LOVE your bio too. What you are doing is wonderful. It's all about how we live, isn't it? We've all been given a light to shine and yours certainly does. Thank you for your gifts!!! xox
Hello!love " another miracle" very uplifting! Great message! Great vocals... Many blessings.... Julia:)

Thanks Joe!!
your welcome--you have a lot of really nice songs!--cheers--joe.
Andrea could you please contact me at redheart@gmail.com It is of an important nature. Thank you.
Hi Andrea ... Love your Christmastime song! I added it to my playlist! Merry Christmas and Blessings to you and Songsinc in 2013!
Thank you so much,Elisabeth. It was one of those songs that just wrote itself....so you know to whom I give my thanks! xoxox
yes, I do ... I think that is why I am so drawn to all of your music arrangements! I finally have my FREEDOM CD compiled ... thanks to SongsInc.. 21 in all! ... The song that completed the CD was "No Turning Back" ... I heard the arrangement by Kevin Thomas saying "no turning back" and in an hour the song was written! It's posted here on Broadjam if you'd like to hear it ... I so appreciate Songsinc! ... and you! Blessings and May 2013 be a wonderful one for you and your family ... and the Songsinc family ~ Susie and Tim!
And Blessings to you and yours from myself as well as out wonderful and giving Songsinc team. I will go listen now :)
Stay dry Joe! Thank YOU for your enthusiasm and amazing spirit. We love what we do, but you know that :) May you have a blessed and creative day....xox
thanxs andrea--we are getting beat up pretty bad here in florida--but !--not as bad as the 4 hurricanes back in 2004--i lived thru them 4--charlie was the worst--210 mile per hour winds for awhile--the news people never told the truth about that whole ordeal--anyway--thanxs for thinking of me--you don't have to reply--cheers--joe.
Thanks Joe...that one was fun to write...I think I wrote it 20 years ago...and it's still standing :)
Congrats on the cut - well deserved! Will enjoy your feedback once you try Songsinc. We are having a ball creating music!! Thanks again! Andrea / Songsinc
Hey Buck - love your songs! And thanks for the nice words for "Common Ground" - that one was a special one for me. Hope to stay in touch, and thanks again for the great music! Andrea / Songsinc
Thanks a lot Andrea. Have some new stuff coming soon. Just got one of them cut. Love your songsinc site too. I'm going to give that a try soon too. Buc
Hi again Andrea. If you get a sec maybe you wouldn't mind giving my latest cut a listen, "In The Dirt". Buc ;})
This is nothing short of a HIT. Great lyrics, my friend. I was in the dirt, the clay with you. I was on the Quad. You just said it for middle America - those hard working, hard playing folk...and I loved the line about your grandson standing under the oak...KILLER SONG!!! Hats off to you! Andrea / Songsinc
Thanks Andrea! So far the comments have all been positive. The demo came out great and I just got The Kentucky Linemen's version of this today and it blew me away.
Great harmonies...btw, that's Mith Fletcher on my song "Common Ground"...so you know I'm pulling for you and the boys!! Andrea
Great haning with you too Joe. Having creativity all around us is our blessing. Don't worry about the money...just continue to do what you love and do it because of that...doors will open, but truly, it's the journey as songwriters and the fact that we WRITE SONGS that is our greatest blessing. Andrea / Songsinc
Hey Andrea- Just listened to Don't Worry, I Know. It's really beautiful. My grandmother just passed away over the summer and it is as if you filmed the scene between my mother and her. She also had auburn hair, once upon a time. Good luck with it. Btw... nice to see you get personal ads on Broadjam too... How did the comment below get through? And no, that Susan is not me!!! :)
Thanks Susan, this one came from the heart as I observed my husband with his mother just before she passed away. It was a beautiful honest moment. I would like to say I wrote the song, but it wrote me... As for the other Susan, that perky girl gets through every now and then...hopefully this time she's blocked for good!! Happy Holidays to you and yours. :)
Hi Joe! Thanks...we're pretty proud of the Tracks we've been able to assemble and give thanks to all the TrackOwners around the world who are sharing with our songwriters. Create Collaborate Inspire...it's what music is all about!!! Love that Elisabeth joined...so happy to have her on board as well.. Andrea / Songsinc
Not sure what you're asking; do you mean create backing tracks and lyrics within a Karaoke softward program?
common ground--great song--if susan witzel liked it,so do i--thanks--joe----susan is a great sportswoman at this music biz!!!
I agree, Susan is awesome! Thanks for the support as always, Joe. Andrea, Songsinc
Wow...not sure about being a "master"! I think perhaps I get lucky with patience - LOL! Thanks again for making my day...
Thanks Susan...it was intentional. I had been thinking about this structure for awhile in terms of a "duet" and when the song came to me I thought - "YES, let's try it here!" This is one of my personal favorties, perhaps because I waited so long to get this structure idea to work. Hope you are having an exceptional day! Andrea / SONGSINC
Hi Andrea. I really enjoyed "Warm Redemption Rain," along with a lot of your other tunes. I'm looking forward to listening to more of your stuff. You have a great sound.
Thank you B.J. That song is personal to me - my mother loved it and so we played it at her funeral. Forever it will be for my mom...so appreciate your comments! Have an EXCEPTIONAL day! Andrea / Songsinc
Thanks! First time I ever entered a 6-Pak...it's been a lot of fun! Still looking for your tracks! Andrea / Songsinc
Burnt disk on my desk... Mailing it tomorrow if I can find the time to hit the post office. Sorry for the delays, its been crazy busy over here between Jenn Johnson's work, several mastering projects, and my evil day job that likes to suck the motivation right out me:)
hey andrea,that last message you left me,really made my day,thanks again/joe.
simply put, I just told the truth. xox
Thanks Joe! I always love getting your reviews...you are the absolute best... Andrea / Songsinc
Thanks for visiting, Russel - much appreciated. What we do is pretty simple, within an innovative legal framework: We offer one Music Creator's musical assets (instrumental tracks) to other Music Creators (Songwriters & Lyricists) for them to use in the creation of New Music/Songs. The Asset Owner is fairly compensated (often earns his/her first royalty check ever through this process). The Songwriter & Lyricist have a treasure full of assets to inspire them to create new works. We love what we do and I'm happy to talk to you further. In the meantime, CREATE joyously! Andrea, Songsinc
Thank you for your lovely review of "Don't Worry I Know". True songs tend to resonate. As for a market, it will find a home. Maybe it's home is here simply to be found. Warmest of regards, Andrea Standley, Songsinc
I wish you great success.
Hey, glad to know I got it right! Would love to hear the project when it's completed - Happy Writing, Andrea
Nashville Joe - So happy "Hummingbird" moved you. We think it's pretty great. I co-wrote it with Tim Koerber - and to be truthful, this is mostly his. I was SO inspired by it as well and very fortunate to be able to work with him on it. Love your enthusiasm, hope to see you stop by SONGSINC one day. Happy Writing Andrea / Songsinc
