Composing songs is like making babies, you need to give them the correct theme, feel, tempo, melody, chord, sound etc. At times, you need to let someone (e.g. lyricist) babysit your song and when they send back to you, help your baby wear some clothing and start to show your friends!!!
Comments are meant to help song writer improve. No matter how vague the comments can be, it implies something. In general, comments are categorized in 3 main types; Good, So-so, Lousy!
Good; then you are on the right track, but keep it up and dun be complacent!
So-so; you are proceeding to the right track, but need to put in more effort to improve.
Lousy; you are not doing it correctly, you got to seek help from people who are doing it correctly.
Learn how to do a demo if you can't do one, make use of computer to do midi arrangement... Without demo, your songs cannot be shared efficiently. I used to encounter a student who can't do demo, every time he wants to let people hear his song he'll bring his guitar and sing it live... *tedious* @_@|||
Keep in mind that sharing is an art, let your good friends hear your song and get their comments, it helps!
Never write for the sake of writing, use your heart! Even if your song does not make it to anywhere, anything or does not fetch good feedbacks, it is perfectly ok because you'll definitely have learnt something during the process in making the song! Dun think that your song has been given "death penalty". The right way is to move on :)
Last but not least let me quote a sentence that I find it "very true"; 一个成名大师的成功作品底下往往藏着几百个不成功的作品!
