Proposal proposal proposal

well then i find it difficult to write in a blog without being casual and relaxed with grammar and such so yes this is my proposal

i would like to write about the recording industry focusing mainly on what it takes to be a song writer, how to get a song out and recorded, and further more how to turn it into a hit. although there is probably no formula for such a thing i really want to get deep into how to get a song written and how to propose it to and artists and follow the song from a songwriters head into an artists throat and onto this nice little cd right there ( 0 ) yea thats a cd. .. i want to research who you have to know in the buisness to get anything done and if it is really possible for someone with humble beginings to get a foot in the door and make something.i'd also like to look into the concept of selling out and how what starts off as music expression can change into music exploitation ... i need to do some research and see if this is even a viable topic because it is very likely the research is not there and it's very possible that this could just be a weak topic but it's something i'm interested and want to learn more about and yea isn't that the whole reason i'm here... besides the parties and good times that is ... yea ... see i can't write something without feeling like i'm performing for an audience out there like this is an assignment and yet i still feel compelled to try and give the audience something... i even try some comic relief.. if it's that bad i really don't need to hear about it.. i know it is.. i wrote it ... but yea after 15 minutes of brainstorming thats kinda all i have. i think maybe it was just a brain shower.. i dunno it seemed kinda weak to me ... ok i'm done now

It sounds like you're curious to see if there's a "secret" to getting a record deal. Where would you go to find this information?

NPR did a wonderful series on Independent recording artists revolutionizing how music gets to people around the edges of the Big Music Industry. There are also many successful bands marketing and getting the music out there online, with downloads and touring.

self confidence is one of the most powerful forces behind success along with a little luck. How have people you've heard about in the media been able to climb the musical ladder?
