Gosh Darn-it, Russ.



I can read music, Rusty. Here's the problem with your “music” sheets, Russ. You basically have a whole rest on all your songs. Okay, you're in 4/4 and that means there are four beats in every measure. The black box in the measure means that you hold for four beats meaning the instrument or singer is silent. Now, you also have four measures for your bass and treble clefs with whole rest notes. That means your songs start off with silence for 16 beats on all three songs.  Does that make sense? What about the key at the beginning of your songs? You and I can read music, come on, Russ. Pop music usually starts out with the singer singing and your key is just as important as your time signature.  
If you are going to preview three new songs, then show us the actual musical work. Don't plaster some titles on a baseline sheet music program and claim you're writing new stuff. And, why do I get the feeling two of these songs will be aimed at Taylor Swift?
