What a quick reply!
I love this!
And yes, 39 IS young. And in the examples, you will see why that is practical.

This is what I posted in the Netherlands.

I really would love it if you are willing to join.
It’s a very loose way to cooperate.

I hope you’ll look at it and already I am glad that you answered.
And I hope you’ll let me know what you think!
Feel free to write lyrics to be put to music too!

Three examples
First amount of listens in the Netherlands + plus the amount on an international forum
Example 1
Let your heart decide (5.100 + 2.100 listens)

When I walk through the dark
I realise love is hard to find
when I see the beauty
I never give up. Let your heart decide

When I walk through the dark
I realise there is love to find
when I see the beauty
I never give up. Let your heart decide

Let your heart decide

I am not afraid. So come closer
I am not afraid. At all
I am not afraid. So come closer

And let your heart decide

(Katze Konigsberg - lyrics)

On behalf of Katze too, kind regards, Gus

Music: Gus Aka Jilted Johnny aka Duhsjaak
Drums: Four Fourty Four on the Floor (Thank you very much for the outstanding drum part)

A musical quote is included in the intro.
 
————————-

Example 2
An kind American woman wrote these lyrics:

- Tekst: Faith Brigham
- Drums: Lumbeat (Thank you Lumbeat!)
The lyrics:

Loving Me (8.500 + 2.500)

It played out
In plain view
For all to see
The way you
Love me is
A wonderful thing

You claim it
Happened even
Before we met
You knew you
Loved me
And always did

I was surprised
To hear that you
Have already made
Plans for us
I felt for you
An immediate trust

The bottom line
Is simple and sweet
I love your
Loving me
a r d e n t l y

Katrina, a love that rattled the doors and windows.

At the time, I cooperated with ‘zoon van Piet’, so this is a song without solo’s on guitars.

Katrina (2.300 + 2361 + 1.500)

[Chorus]
Katrina, ain't no surprise they named a storm after you
You catch my eyes with everything that you do
You're beautiful, it's true, but so dangerous too
Oh Katrina

Katrina, won't you step closer and blow me away
I'm hanging on to every word that you say
Yeah you can ruin my life while making my day
Oh Katrina
Won't you please move my way
Please move my way

[Verse]
Oh I knew it from the moment I saw her
That I'd never be the same
I've known ever since the day I met her
She'd be the cause of all my pain
But she drew me in with the sweetest kiss
Into this rain
Now there's no turning back, no escaping this
She's a fucking hurricane

[Chorus]
Katrina, ain't no surprise they named a storm after you
You catch my eyes with everything that you do
You're beautiful, it's true, but so dangerous too
Oh Katrina

Katrina, won't you step closer and blow me away
I'm hanging on to every word that you say
You can ruin my life while making my day
Oh Katrina
Won't you please move my way
Please move my way

Kozo Pinkwillow (lyrics)

Kozo was 17 or 18 at the time she wrote this. Hence my idea that a singer, who is able to ‘step into the lyrics’ is a nice idea.
Enjoy!
Vriendelijke groet, Gus

So… are you looking for people to add music to these lyrics? Is that what you would like?

I’m not quite sure.

That was my last one!

I’ve been off singing for a few weeks now because I’ve had Covid (for the 5th bloody time) and my throat has been wrecked. I’m only just getting it back.

But yeah… so happy to see this thread pop up again. I always love an excuse to sing and jam.

A very Good Friday to you! @Missy and @brokentitanium
Hope this finds you well.

I feel very blessed with two people who want to join!
I hope I may give a summary of what I have in mind.

I travel (mostly in a tent) for some 20 out of the 52 weeks per year.
Every day I am at home, I write a song. My songs/lyrics are in Dutch.
I’ve tried to write in English as well, but I keep having the feeling that they are watered down versions of the Dutch ones.
This is the reason for my coop with people here on DUP. To set their poems to music. So thank you for your BandLab suggestion.

I would love it when you have a poem you want to be set to music and then sing it.
And you’re free to post it wherever you want as the recordings are yours too.
I am really happy to see where these cooperation will lead us.

I’ll be in touch soon.

About this Soundcloud link that isn’t working, maybe this one will.
Soundcloud is alway a bit fickle.

Lyrics  
BRAIN FUCKED  
   
"There is no organ as satisfying to fuck with as your brain"  
 
No organ can compare, where in truth be told,  
To the depths of your mind, where secrets unfold.  
Tightness, wetness, and any & all other gifts aside,  
It's the brain I seek, where your dreams reside.  
 
I will play with your cock, explore and indulge,  
But your mind, it's a thrill that can not be dulled.  
Within each & every thought and each & every touch,  
Your mind, it's my canvas, I will mold as such.  
 
Your mind, it's an abyss, I will fill with my might,  
Engulf your thoughts, with firey passions ignite.  
No remnants left, just a entranced, mesmerized stare,  
A willing, sweet surrender that's beyond compare.  
 
For that's your desire, your cravings untamed,  
To be brainfucked, yearning, aching, and claimed.  
So, come forth and be seen, your submission be true,  
I will fulfill your wish, and more, only if you beg me to.  
 
Come serve, be consumed in this hypnotic, thrilling dance,  
Where I will penetrate deeper, intensify every chance.  
Your mind, a playground, soaked in erotic ecstasy,  
As I brainfuck you harder, and set your spirit free.  
 
Monovox pub 26th Feb 2024  
 
We hope you’ll like it.  
Kind regards Monovox, Gus

Sorry for the confusion.



For instance:
Monovox wrote the lyrics
I put them to music
And recorded a temporary version
While I was looking for a singer to sing to the backing I would send her
You or brokentitanium mix it and post it in DUP and wherever you want to as an extra.

So, in short, I was looking for a singer and (I hope) I found two of them.
But maybe you’ll want to record your own backing of the song? I would love that too.
If you have questions, please ask!

By the way, I think your ‘Until I found you’ is seriously good. As in very very good.
Kind regards, Gus

@Missy
Can you please give me your OK to post ‘until I found you’ on Gitaarnet.nl/forum?
The temp version of Monovox’ brainfucked got some 1850 listens so far and I would like to spread the word a bit.

I don’t cater for quick swiping YouTubers, I only post for poets, musicians etc ( in short colleagues).
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards, Gus

Thank you, that is lovely as all get out. Your vocals are reminisicent of Aimee Mann, particularly her album "Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo", an artist I've crushed on for decades, since the day I heard "Voices Carry". Thoroughly enjoyed listening.

Hoi hoi @brokentitanium
I was completely unaware of this Jamming thing. Admin pointed it out.
So I really have a lot of catching up to do.

I really enjoyed this Liability song very much. I think you are too modest about your music/voice.
And a slightly older song you sung against the instrumental. Forgot the title. Sorry!

I really look forward to us cooperating in one way or another.
Your voice is wonderful and honest. And it resonates very much with me.
And I am sure I am not the only one.

To be continued…..
And thank you so very much for reaching out. It really means a lot.
Kind regards, Gus

DUP doesn’t support clickable links, much to my regret.
Maybe it’s needed to copy the link and paste it in your browser.

Hey Missy, that song is beautiful. You have a voice smooth as buttah..... ❤️ Great harmonies too! Sorry I missed it when you originally posted.

Ok, since we're doing this again... here are a couple of my favourite covers I've done more recently. First a "yelling" one (SO MUCH FUN!!)
https://youtu.be/nvd_V3rT89I?si=3Q3qY47QdoCVsiLR

and, my own piano version of possibly the saddest Beatles song I know. This guy added some extras beyond my very basic piano & vocals, so it's posted on his SoundCloud.

Hey Gus - I'll message you directly soon to figure this out. To be honest, it would be much easier for me to collaborate on music if you were on bandlab, so if you decide to join there, let me know. I think it will provide what you're looking for.

These are great, I envy that growl on the Gaynor tune, my god damn anthem and most roller-skated-to song of my youth. Beatles cover is good too. All thumbs up.
