Same here on all counts. For what it's worth.

Also just wondering, will the company who made the listing filter among all the forwarded song...

Yes, everyone's right, aim should be to keep doing better at making songs.

Taxi is forwarding what they deem to be their best educated guess as to what may work for the listing party... that's Taxi's job, that's what they do. Once the listing party gets it in their ears, then they're gonna say yes or no, sometimes not for any particular reason than their gut telling them so. They don't have time to deal with the "no's" so the only time you hear from them is for a "yes."

So that is a filter... right? They're not gonna rubber stamp everything that comes from Taxi. They are looking for that "just right" song/feeling/composer. And to be clear... if it isn't "just right" that doesn't mean it's bad, it just means it isn't "just right" for that particular need.

"if it isn't "just right" that doesn't mean it's bad, it just means it isn't "just right" for that particular need."

Perfect way to look at it! And my toughest critic isn't a Taxi screener... it's my wife!
