  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I play the guitar and love writing my own songs. I have a few songs I sing in church but due to the constant criticism, I quit singing them.
I was just wondering if anyone else loves to write songs as much as I do, or did?

Awww... :crosseo: bless you sister! .. I hate that envious spirit, that is such a cruel thing to do :hug:

Did you ever manage to record your songs? I would like to listen to them!

I write a lot of songs but I can’t sing sadly. I usually write what I’m feeling at that moment whether it would b happy or sad day. I usually write about situations I overcome or I write how God saved my life. I’d like to learn to sing but nowhere to go in my town.

I write loads of lyrics, and have a tune in my head, but as I can't play for toffee (useless) and can't hold a tune very well, then nothing gets recorded. I have joint recorded 3 songs over the past number of years, but I'd love to do more.
We should all get together and someone should write the words, someone the music, someone should sing it, and a number should play it.
We could then release it and be world famous... or sell 10 copies.
:sorry:

One thing I've learnt is that if you love doing it you do it. Sort of like a hobby. You don't have to be good at it, you just have the desire to continue.
(Which explains why I've written 600+ poems/songs and they're all getting dusty in a cupboard!!!!)

Why did they critic your songs ?
Here's my opinion about it: If they don't want to gear it, fine, don't do it in their churches. But there is still other places and media for you to be able to play your songs.
I know it can seems easy to say, but don't be discourage, and don't quit music because of some feedback. Learn, improve, and share if you feel in your heart to do so.
A music lover :)
