Damiyr - Who Am I To Say (Hope) in the subway! So Beautiful!!!!!

[@TerraMontez]

I can't believe that people are passing you like nothing...I'd stand there and cry like a baby. It's beautiful.

[@m.ockthem9177]

Liora Liebe cut them some slack bruh, people are goin to work, appointments etc, im sure most would stop if theyrnot in a rush

[@insTTinctFPS]

I will stop even if I'm late at this thing called work. don't care life is a joke, so I will stop cuz this is inspiring and that's all we need.... Inspiration, this is beautiful this is oxygen... So I will stop.

[@m.ockthem9177]

JohnParho I agree bro, I just think not all people(with kids) can afford to lose their jobs or miss a doctor appointment that costs a 100 bucks etc is all. Dont be so black&white dude.

[@Dunning.Kruger]

This combat veteran would love to stop.... however being in a tunnel surrounded by people. Yeah.... ain't happening. Glad you can enjoy your freedom though. And freedom to think whatever dumb shit squirts out.

[@Deironhead123]

I think they were being told to keep walking and not stop, for video purposes. It makes for a more dramatic effect. A busy metro, with people moving around. And a guy singing a chill, relaxing song. At 1:15 you can see a guy look at the camera, pull his earbuds out and look back at the singer like he was being told something.

[@jessearmstead2237]

This never misses when I just need medicine for my soul.

Dude!!!! Your instrument is absolutely flawless and soulful as they come. So much feeling and purpose. Honestly, today I listen to all your material and I can't believe its not available on ITunes. Once it's available I will buy everything you offer. Thanks for sharing your beautiful talent Sir.

[@TheJustmenu]

+k wilson Thanks! I'm working on getting the license to sell cover songs and also to put up my own music on iTunes. Follow me on facebook and I will keep you updated :-)

[@kwilson032003]

In the meantime, I believe you should consider ways to generate revenue through donation. No different than the ones you receive while playing in the subway. I have several ideas that I believe would assist you in your journey. I'm an engineer with an MBA that simply enjoys music. I want nothing more than you to keep doing what you do. Once again thanks for sharing your talent.

[@TheJustmenu]

I actually have a gofundme that I opened up because many people have asked how they could support the music. The link is in the description of the video :-)

[@kwilson032003]

Been meaning to get back with you. Two things: 1. I showed 10 people your video online and afterward ask them if they want to give you a donation how would they go about it. Only two of them notice your "Gofundme" link. This suggests that the link isn't prominent enough; especially for those who aren’t familiar with hyperlinks. For this reason I would venture to say that you aren’t maximizing your potential for donations. Suggestion: Long term solution - Create your own website with a “Donation” button. Have the donation button linked to your “gofundme” account. Short term solution - Mention the hyper links in your video introduction and/or create links in your videos. Maybe you can do that strange hand gesture pointing at the links. LOL 2. “Gofundme” requires that the donator divulge their email account before they can leave a gift. Personally, I’m not comfortable with that. I’m sure a good portion of your fans feels the same. I believe “gofundmme” sales the data for marketing purposes. That’s all anyone needs, more spam mail. This goes back to my point about maximizing your donation potential. More money = more recording time = me getting your album sooner

[@TheJustmenu]

You've made some good points. As far as making a bigger link within the video or in the very beginning: my priority is that people enjoy the video. I don't want to bombard the viewers with too many requests when they've most likely not seen any of my videos or don't know anything about what I'm trying to do. So, I will avoid doing that. I do need to get a website asap and have the option for others to donate if they want to. I'll get on that asap. But e being made. Monday I'll be putting out a new song/video that will be available for download :-) So, Thank for your input and for your ideas. I appreciate it. I'm working hard to get music out there!
