One clarification I need. Is it OK if I put up one tune now that it has been almost a week when I last put up a tune, exactly 5 days? Or should I still wait for two days so that I don't make a mistake again?

Not really sure what you're asking Antti. You can do what you like, there are no 'rules' as such. Just consider though, that every time you start a new thread, you push all the other threads down the page.
 
Personally I wait until a song/thread has run it's course, i.e. got to the point where there are no more comments being added and I've bumped the thread enough thanked everybody who has commented.

Maybe the threads could BE put so that it was possible to have several threads at one 'line' so there could BE Møre posting without feeling guilty. Not with current forum software probably. But maybe in the future.

That would require a change to the forum software, and that's very unlikely to happen. If you want to post more songs, nothing's stopping you.

You are probably right in the software thing but I am afraid there will BE no comments IF I put a tune up. Oh, well, I live only once. I Am taking a chance.

Sorry people I just realized that when using a mobile things look a lot different on the forum threads situation wise. I remembered the full version option for phones on the forums and it looks pretty bad. So I just made things worse. Sorry again. I will try to keep a long break from song postings til next time.

Hello Mr. Kaaku,
 
There is no secret or guide to getting more comments on your songs in the song forum.
 
I think the main thing you need to be is "realistic."  By that I mean you need to recognize that the song forum is like a public place for you to converse and share with others.  If you look at the demographics of the songs forum it is populated by a relatively small percentage of people that visit the CW Forums.  In general the bulk of the submissions are of a general style and by folks who have been around for quite some time. This is just how it is, and that is something that you will have to accept.  There is nothing wrong with this, or skewed against you, it is just that people gravitate towards the things, and people, they are familiar with.
 
I too am new to the CW Forums.   I bombarded the song forums with 11 songs in the last 30 days or so.  The first comment I had for a song was from Bapu, and he said my song was "weird."  I was not put off by this, it is what he felt and it was honest.  What i am trying to say is that you can not expect to much from the song forum.  It is a group of people that all have a passion for what they do, and know what they like and don't like.
 
Some of your songs will get more reviews than others.   Some of your songs may languish in obscurity.  This does not mean they are bad, or nobody likes them, it just means that there is only so much time in the day to listen to music, and people will go towards the artists who have a track record and who have offered helpful critiques to other songs.
 
Just stick it out, and post what you want, when you want.  If you are a true artist who is passionate about what you do then this should be the easy part.  If folks comment, great, if not, then great too. It does not mean you are a bad artist, or bad person if others don't comment, and it doesn't mean you are the next Madonna if folks go gaga over your song.  It actually means absolutely nothing, except that is is nice to hear someone likes what you do, and it is also nice to know if they don't (even though it may hurt a little.)
 
I challenge you to stick around for a year, and post the material you want to share, and then revisit this thread and see if you feel the same way as you do right now.  You might be surprised.
 
Don't expect to be an overnight sensation, but by sticking to it you will accumulate some social collateral, and you may be responding to the next person who doesn't understand why nobody "gets me." 
 
I love you man, because you came on like a lion, now don't go out like a lamb.  Share your music, and your thoughts, and it will all work out for you whether you know it or not.

You can well be right. Thanks for the comment.

Is it best to bump my tune or just put another tune since the tune is probably not liked although I like the chorus myself. If I bump the tune it will haunt me at least another week and probably with maybe one comment and I have been giving comments like crazy so that tip is not working this time. But if I put another tune then I kind of break the first page rule although it seems the rule is not set in stone. Ideas anyone?

Like I said in post #21, there are no rules. It's up to you if you bump your thread. Personally, if my tune had 50 views and no comments, that would tell me something, and I'd probably move on with something new. I'm no Songs Forum expert, just going by my own experiences in 10 years posting there.
 
If I looked back at my first couple of years I doubt if my threads garnered many comments. These things build up over time, people get to know you.
 
I notice in that thread you say;
 
'' Made it with Sonar x1. Sorry but nothing else comes to my mind about it.''
 
Doesn't exactly sound like you're very enthused about your own tune really...should anyone else be? Is it something you're really proud of, and passionate about?
