It's done.
I sent the email to the marketing company today. I better delete everything and hide the evidence 😜

Up until now, this blog was a secret. Now I'm taking the plunge and hoping people would buy my nonsense. By the end of this week someone (From the marketing company) might be reading this , so  I should say "Hello.....My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."😝

It took me a while to send the mail today. "I will smoke this cigarette and then do it." "I'm thirsty, let me drink something first." I was finding ways to postpone pressing the "Send" button.

"Sending" means its done. I'm out there. 
I don't fear rejection, I can take it. I'll live. It's the fear that it will be harder for me to do what I love as a result. I'm not talking just about me as a person but also my music. People might like me but hate my music and vice versa. They can also hate both 😱

I'm desperate for attention and for people to listen, and at the same time, it's the thing that scares me the most. Anyway, the ride is about to start. It could be long. It could be short. I might crash right away or catch a soaring wave. Lets just hope I live through it safely 😋

In my last blog entry, I was like "Ha..Ha Look at me..I got an idea for the video and found a company to make it." "Ha..Ha..I'm contacting the company with my great idea". 
They rejected my proposal😰 They didn't even answer me when I talked to them. I felt it was disrespect-able. Now I'm back at square one. I need to find a company. 

Here is an interesting thing about "Down The Aisle".
I think it's normal now, but ten, fifteen years ago it would have been impossible or hard to make this song. The song was done over 4 continents and I only met the producer in person.

The producer and I : Egypt/Africa
Guitars: Netherlands/Europe
Vocals: Philippines/Asia (English vocalist living in Philippines)
Mixing/Mastering: USA/North America

Look at this pendulum. See how beautiful it is. Can you feel it going back and forth. The sound is so soothing and relaxing. Tick. Tock. You feel you loosen up as your heart beats. Can you feel the tingling in your fingers. Your eyelids getting heavier. Relax. You're going into a deep trance. You can't open your eyes. Surrender to the tranquility.... When I write "song", you will do as I say... "Song" You love my song too much, it's aching. You want to get it and listen to it over and over again. You want to share it with all your friends. I won't let you suffer any longer. Go buy it. Now all I need is to share this blog with a million people. That could work 😈 The problem is reaching one million people. That is the actual problem. I bet if I can reach half of this number, I wouldn't have to use my hypnotic power to seduce people to do my bid 😂 I was never a convincing person. I have a hard time selling myself. Confidence have a

Happy Easter. After writing the song's incredible algorithmic coded notes that I shared last time, we ended up changing nothing to the song file 😟 Some things the producer said that he will do, and some can be worked out later. But we didn't change a single thing. I must have a very weak personality or he must be very convincing. I lack perseverance and conviction 😝 But to be honest, the producer has valid arguments, compounded by my lack of experience and confidence. "You're just nitpicking". "You're micromanaging and experimenting". "Leave room for creativity". All valid arguments, that's why I don't dwell too much right now. My argument with myself "It can be better". We are still in early stages and with each iteration I'll have more input. One of the things I'm waiting on is the "Drop" (musical hook) that he will come up with. I'm getting attached to the one I have already. If he can make

Vital Correlation is the culmination of cultivated unison, derived by the revered acquaintance of an extravagant soul. You know what I mean? Neither do I 😂 Yep. It's that time again. I'm just standing still. I feel like someone in a train station, hoping for a train to come, to take me to my destination. The problem is, I've been waiting for too long and everyone I know hopped on. Most reached their destination and I'm still hustling 😱 I can get kicked out at anytime. Game over.  It's like the producer disappeared. The last time we talked, he was very energetic. "If I call you, this means the song is done", he said enthusiastically. It's almost three weeks now with no movement. I sent him a message today but got no reply. I'll call him tomorrow. I know there is nothing wrong, and I'm hoping the outcome is worth the wait. But it's cold here in the train station. The question that worries me the most is "What wil
