Thread Name: They stole my song!
Subject: RE: They stole my song!
I write almost everything that I sing on stage. I receive royalty payments for songs that have been recorded by others, but I love it when someone likes one of my songs enough to learn it. I was at a party last Memorial Day and a young piper played one of my songs as a pipe tune. Turns out she had learned it from a Seamus Kennedy CD and loved it. She was thrilled to find out I had written it. Now she wants to learn more of my melodies on her highland pipes. Absolute heaven to a song writer.
