This is an article detailing some thoughts in my mind as I ponder my feelings towards the making and overall emotional investment towards this song.
Originally written in 2010 and then finished during the early months of 2020.The original idea came to me during my time with my first band, Silent Threat.I was in the studio with them during one of our jam sessions / hangouts and we would have friends come over occasionally.One of them got on the mic and put a vocal line that stuck with me enough to put music to it in my head.
Eventually I came around to putting it to paper with lyrics about being lonely and afraid to approach people.That was pretty much my personality in those days which is probably why I was not very approachable.When you are afraid, you come across as awkward and somewhat creepy.Story of my life.
10 years later, I revisited the song and the “chorus” came to me suddenly.I was finally able to finish this song and now it all makes sense.
The opening riff came to me during my walks around Sherwood Forest Faire and it sounded like a Collective Soul-type riff combined with a goth rock edge. After listening to the final version, I can’t help but also notice some similarities to a band called Saxon Moon. It is a song about a warrio...

Money General Questions
What are the fees to withdraw money/get paid?
We are currently using Paypal as our primary payment processor so our fees are directly in line with their quoted fees for business transfers.
a) we will be adding other payment processors soon.
b) we intend to have the lowest fees in the industry, along with the highest payments this will be good for all members.
c) Our ambition is simple, we want to help all our members earn as much as they possibly can from their involvement in the music industry.
Note: Payment processing fees are subject to change by Paypal and are not under our control. We simply pass on the fees directly and do not profit from this process what so ever, in fact we personally charge nothing for our part in the process.

You will receive $0.0185 of this $0.02
There is a hosting and streaming fee of $0.0015 which is just to cover our costs, not to make huge profits from artists.
Sales:
We allow you to set a download sale price when you add your music, this is the price you set to sell your track for download ownership.
You can also set a commission to encourage other members to generate sales for your music.
How do I sell downloads?
Sales:
We allow you to set a download sale price when you add or edit your music, this is the price you set to sell your track for download ownership.
You can also set a commission to encourage other members to generate sales for your music.
When members share your music and new members buy this music the member who created the link to your music can generate a commission for themselves.
Music licensing – how does it work?
By signing up to the Go To Hear platform you’re granting Go To Hear and its members a non-exclusive direct licence to play and promote your tracks.
This license allows our members to market & promote you and your music.
IMPORTANT: Our unique security and revenue model prevents anyone from ‘giving away’ your music or cutting you out of the deal.
Ultimately our platform’s aim is to protect your music, yet at the same time harness your fan base, widen your audience, and help you earn more money from what you are really good at… making music.
More details of our Terms and Conditions can be found here
Can I get paid for streaming my music?
Yes.
For streaming your tracks are charged at $0.02 per stream over 30 seconds.
You will receive $0.0185 per stream of this $0.02 – the most per stream of any platform.
4 or 5 times some of the bigger platforms.
We only take a hosting & streaming fee of $0.0015 per stream, which is just to cover our costs, not to make huge profits from artists.
NOTE: If members stream your track and don’t wish to pay or don’t have any money they will only have access to a 30 second clip of your music.
We think the pressure to give music away totally undermines artist revenues.
It’s great for platforms who want to profit from artists by giving away millions of tracks for $10 per month, but we think your art is worth more than that.
How do I protect my tracks from piracy?
The Go To Hear platform has in-built security which means that tracks can only be played on Go To Hear unless you sell them as a download.
• Members can only listen to a track or read your blog by visiting the Go To Hear platform.
Members/non-members who try to copy your content/music to use elsewhere will be stopped by our encrypted protection system.
This means your music can only be shared by using our share creation technology – the links created by this mean anyone who clicks on a link to your content anywhere on the web will be brought back to your content on Go To Hear.
If they aren’t already a member then when they sign up as a platform member they will be attributed to you as one of your affiliates – so it’s you who makes the money not people attempting to illegally copy and use your music.
This technology is designed specifically to protect artists and other content creators to ensure that the people who create the content always get the reward for their work.
Where’s my music download for music I’ve bought?
You can find your purchases and download them at any time from the purchase section (also visible in your member menu).
Please act responsibly with tracks you pay for, we want you to enjoy the music you buy and ensure others show artists the same support. Together we can make the music industry a fair system once again.
