They All Fizzle Out

I suck.
That is my conclusion.
So, whenever I post a video or a sound file of any covers or other "musical" stuff I do...
They all fizzle out.
I like to tell myself, "Maybe it is the time of day I post these." Maybe that's why they don't get any traction.
Or maybe people just don't want to take the time to go outside the site. It's like a long post. They just don't want to spend the time not MyLotting.
Or, I just suck, people know it, and no one wants to give me the time of day.
I am being tongue in cheek here, and I don't give a damn one way or the other. Just having a little bit of fun with an observation that my "musical" posts aren't going through the roof with interaction, and I could not think of anything else to write about momentarily.

Yeah. I wonder that too. I mean, I can get quite a few responses from a "what I had for dinner" post. I still think SOME of it is due to people not wanting to spend time off the site. More people are here strictly for the money than let on.

Videos are not in demand here. I have noticed that. How I wish the videos that I upload here are watched

@porwest Depends on why they are here. If it is for earning in the least possible time then videos are not for them.

@allknowing Most people here, and anywhere else I have been, are here for the earnings. I don't know how many people at Bubblews or WebAnswers, or other places said they would be there regardless, and when the money stopped, no one showed up.

@porwest I enjoy the interaction here and the money earned here is not something that would go towards my survival (lol)

Do bring on some amusing musical posts I could use another chuckle or two.

I think you're wrong! You don't stink at all, in fact I listened your Compilation #2 audio which lasts 13:18secs and I loved it man! This might be the kind of music I would listen to on a laundry day while i am all alone at home, or even when I am having my moment of solitude when there's no one around and believe me that's when I am happy the most!. Keep doing it and never give up. PS: loved the guitar on the background! thumbs up to your Compilations!

Very glad that you enjoyed it. I really enjoy playing my guitar, and I only share just in case someone else might be interested, I do not ever consider myself talented, but I enjoy what I do and it makes me happy that anyone ever enjoys listening. Even if I never get the responses I would like I will still continue to share just because it is a hobby of mine, I like to keep the recording software on when I do it, and I enjoy the feedback.

They are littered around my profile. Done a few of them. If you ever want to check any out...I will send cotton for your ears if you need it. Here is one of them I shared.
Here is one of them I shared.
As per my usual, just had the recording software going while messing around with some leisurely guitar playing. This compilation includes some Gordon Lightfoot (Carefree Highway and Sundown), The Eagl
