Upvoted comments means someone appreciates that comment. If that comment holds a link to a song, someone may upvote it which, around here, isn't much different than a High Hive.
Trying to bust someone's balls for hosting an initiative that gathers the community together to appreciate songs we've either never heard or are hearing for the first time is uncalled for. It's no different than putting money in the juke box at a pizza joint and someone loves the song you played so much they buy you a beer.
It's called engagement @xplosive, copyright infringement should constitute real earnings, not pennies, and this world is way too uptight in 2021. I'm surrounded by nay sayers. Everyone knows everything, they're smarter than Judge Judy. everyone's better than everyone, boooorrrring, snitching is the new form of communication and people overreact to sharing good music.
If you read my conversation with the author in the comments under this post, then you know that "busting" was not my intention. I would rather say that I wrote a constructive critique about this initiative. Probably the author of this post also agree with this.
Constructive critique and busting someone's balls are one and the same where I come from and neither should be taken personally, I was merely constructively critiquing your comment to Jaynie because you didn't attach a song.
I'm still waiting....
I share my own piano play from virtualpiano.net:
The song is not my own, but the play is.
I prefer original content, even if it is just/only partially original.
Nice! I love the keys myself. I've had many studios in my life, been without one for about five years now. The turntables were my forte, keys are beautiful and the mixing boards are magical.
Check out the track I shared here if you get a chance. Bradley Nowell - RIP. I met that dude in a garage in Lancaster, California back when I was 'about' 14 years old—little more than 30 years ago.
