"Enough Is Enough" Goodbye Taxi !!
I feel so dumb as if I've been stuck in a chain letter scam for so long and have only now realised I've been duped by deaf screeners and some faceless people with important sounding titles (some with 5 stars as if they've been to Vietnam) on this forum.To cut to the chase there is is no way I'm wasting any more time or money on this service since a brief due diligence on Taxi which should have been carried out before joining reveals massive rot.I've already had my song "Let Go" placed through my own efforts and to confirm how wrong Taxi got it in their latest critique said it sucks.There's so much stuff on Google where people have even done their own versions of say a Beatle song as required in a listing only to have it rejected.What does that say?It's a win win win situation for Taxi;who cares about the impoverished artist.Ignore what I say and check out some of the comments.It's unbelievable and proves Taxi is just a cashpoint.I have also checked out some of the artists mentioned in the testimonials hoping to find that some surely have now become the equivalent of Elton John and suggest you do the same.I will not make any further comment in this regard .See http://cdbaby.org/stories/04/12/25/1439799.html for general opinions on Taxi.Good Luck everyone and stop deluding yourself.You can do it alone and free of cost.

I am pretty sure something similar happened with a Country song.I think it was on a forum not unlike this one,anyways a successful Country writer put a song up anonymously for a critique and I think about half thought it was great and the other half thought it was rubbish.I think the writer already had a well known artist interested in the song and he went on to record it.I may well be completely wrong!!!! I need a holiday.Have you got them donkeys ready Dave!!!!

Quote:Have you got them donkeys ready Dave!!!! Yeah, looks like I won't be making much from music this year,so best get them out the stables.I think the mother-in-law's still in there, so best let her out to graze too.Just for a couple of hours mind! Then again, we could probably get two kids on her back,so she can earn her keep!

I need a holiday.Have you got them donkeys ready Dave!!!! The songwriter was Chris Wallin, and the song was "Don't Blink", which became a big hit for Kenny Chesney a few weeks later. I believe that Chris wanted to make the points that everyone has opinions, that even "experts" are wrong and to trust your own instincts unless everyone is telling you that your song sucks. I concur.
