Hi

I'm a songwriter/composer - recently signed up with Taxi looking to collaborate with lyricists to do some song submissions.

My preferred style is pop, adult contemporary, and tween pop (probably because I have tween kids and listen to it constantly...

To hear a sample song I composed you can check out "That One" at http://www.taxi.com/chrisbura
With the above - I received raw written lyrics only with small direction on style, tempo.

If you share a love for these styles of music, love writing, but want to collaborate with a composer - let me know.

Thanks,

Chris

Im not the lyricist you're looking for but I just had to say that your song "That One" is really good. I wish u the best of success in your songwriting career. Peace.

Ken

I've got others and I'm writing two more now. I liked "That One" a lot.

Martin.

Hey Ken - thanks. My first attempt. I'll have another two up in a couple weeks - a pop/country crossover a la Taylor Swift and a pop song a la Kelly Clarkson. We'll see.

I totally dig your stuff - i wish I could write better in the R&B/dance style...

Hi Chris

Cheers

Hello Chris,
I like the sound of your stuff, and you appear to have a lot experience behind you. I recently penned some lyrics that i think have the potential for a song with the right composition, and i have in mind the rock/pop genre, but am open to other suggestions as i am not a musician or a composer. I am looking for a collabaration with a composer, if you are interested, please send me some details about yourself, and have you any published work?
i am 47, and my music influences have come from the alike:
 
Rolling Stones, early 80s music, Sex Pistols, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, U2, Goo dolls, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Bread, Don Mclean, Cat Stevens, Rick Nelson.
 
look forward to hearing from you,
Costas.

Hi,

I am a lyricist with many lyrics written waiting for the right composer in rock, pop and pop/country crossover genres. I also have the unique ability to write lyrics based on a simple idea or experience. Contact me at ilenepch@gmail.com

Hi Chris. I am a lyricist breaking in and branching out. You can see 3 of my lyrics on taxis lyric lovers forum under smam60. The lyrics are Chews Nails For Fun and Throw this world a curve and confederate kin. Please look at my 3 lyrics if you get a chance. Thanks Andy
