RE: Im gonna say it again. TRACK VOTES
from what i've been able to observe...and i guess it just don't matter that much except to maria ....there just is very little active participation which goes on here when it comes to the chart. it's true that the chart should have little bearing on who we are as creative individuals but the fact of the matter is that we sometimes create things so other people might enjoy them too.
the chart is merely a way to have our work up where it can be seen.
few or none us are signed...per se and our work isn't getting exposure on the radio.
though i've had a couple things played on college radio and even commercial radio for one week (before elvis) lunchtime too..yeah.
it's silly to say we don't want people to hear our work.
what i think is essential about dt chart behavior is that there is plenty of room left for others.
i actually wish it was a top 50 or 100 with a 3 or 4 song max for any one artist.
one day i will have a chart and site according to my way of looking at things. just kidding...am i crazy? that's just too much work and i can barely type on a computer...much less code!!!
til then....i just think it's okay we respect that there are others who'd like..and DESERVE a notch on the chart too.
this is exactly the reason i've so far yanked sweatin....bicycle...under german skies...my little rose...i mean hey.... 39 angels....and you're so cool~ after a certain period of time.
i think it's great to have people hear your stuff.
and i also like hearing the work of others.
in some ways...i even like that more than arguing all the time about who's got no respect and who's wacked and too young or old or a boring loser from birth or whether we should celebrate president's day etc.
but it's a toss-up.
that stuff's kinda fun too sometimes.
but yes.....definitely vote.
