Why do people who claim to be ‘musicians’ need other people to write or co-write their music? If they truly are musicians shouldn’t they be capable of such a task?

There are several different levels of musicianship. Some people can write absolutely amazing guitar parts, or come up with the catchiest melodies and lyrics off the top of their heads. Some people can read sheet music, play scales, and arpeggios, but can’t even begin to compose their own songs.

Almost everything you listen to has some co-writing involved. Wether its multiple people in a band working on an idea together, or a producer at the studio giving his creative input, it all usually makes the song better. It’s a creative process and co-writing can take good ideas and make them into great ideas. It can take someone’s already awesome song and show them things that they may never have thought to do.

Now I can understand when radio pop bands have most of their material written for them, recycled melodies and lyric ideas forced into their songs because they had worked in other successful “top 40 hits!”. That eliminates the true creative, talented, and meaningful purpose of making music. I hate that shit, aka WTK, BLG, ATL etc.

Besides the mind what do you look for in a girl? Aka gets your heart pumping

Straight teeth, dark hair, bangs, and confidence. Give me a girl with those attributes and I’m instantly vulnerable =/

You always seem to think you know everything about everyone you talk to, mention in blogs, or talk about… Why is it that you can manipulate them to think that what your saying to them holds any ground for being a true assessment of who they are?

I really don’t consider it manipulation or believe that all my assessments are indeed true, but I’m pretty accurate most of the time. I am analytical, observant, and also have a lot of experience with a number of situations, especially relationships and social interaction. When I see someone experiencing those same things, I tend to chime in with my own knowledge and they usually can relate. It’s all about recognizing patterns of behavior as opposed to just assumption. Often my input becomes skewed by people’s insecurities and they take it as criticism or that I have an overwhelming sense of self worth, which is false. Do I sense a disgruntled tone in your question? Have I analyzed you before? We should try it sometime.

Are you looking for a real relationship at this time?

I stopped looking for pretty much anything. Let things come to you. Ever watch the second hand on a clock tick away? Not much fun. I don’t know if I actually want a “relationship” but I’m open for the girl who can change my mind.

What is your biggest inspiration?

This is actually a tough question. We find inspiration from many things and can be applied to so many aspects of our lives. I would say the biggest inspiration is the burning desire to overcome mediocrity. Whatever I end up doing in my life I have to be successful. I unfortunately can’t settle for “good enough” when it comes to music, work ethic, relationships, etc…
