it blows my mind that beyonce heard the instrumental for single ladies and somehow proceeded to write one of the greatest songs of all time.

[@marcusdurrell1087]

To be fair it took 6 people

[@ccc-qp7el]

@Zkzy95 it did though that's the thing. nothing wrong with that. it's just that it's misinformation. writing a good songs from the lyrics, musical notation, having the skills to know how to make the sounds you want to a keyboard or other instruments. Those are hard for only one person even when you train a lot cause the human mind is in fact limited. That's why most singers that are successful you see them only knowing like two instruments and have a good voice. They are on stages to entertain after all, that's their main job that they have to stay fit for.

[@NoiseDay]

​@@ccc-qp7el There are SO many excellent artists that make music by themselves that is way better than the average pop radio song. You know the saying, "too many cooks spoil the broth."

[@burni988]

All the needed to do was come up with lyrics to cover up the beat for the whole song 😂

[@GopheReid]

@Zkzy95I count 4 people in the composer and lyrics sections of the liner notes.

[@stumbling]

Wish I could remember the name of that mask movie with Jim Carrey as the guy in the mask.

[@brodiestephens419]

I think it's called "The Green Faced Man" because when Jim Carrey puts the mask on, the mask makes his face turn green. So basically, the mask turns Jim Carrey into "the green faced man". I remember it well, and it was probably the scariest horror movie I've ever seen.

Someone should make a horror movie that's just about being lost in the woods. Like with no cartoonishly strong hillbillies, no witches that never appear on screen, no creepy cabins, no axe-murderers, and no ridiculously persistent carnivores. It's just the main character lost in the woods with the only dangers being dehydration, starvation, and exposure to the elements. It's only scary when night falls because darkness is a primal human fear.
