    David Johnson


    In December, I decided to give up songwriting. After over 21 years with no cuts, I felt my best just wasn't good enough. Then, I sold a copyright for 'On Christmas Eve,' to Cory Legendre and got my first notable cut. Right after, I got a call from a recording company that said they loved my song 'Who's Next In Line,' and wanted to record it. Then, I got an email from another singer who said he wants to buy 10 of my songs over the next year. He's already bought the first. None of this would have happened had I dropped out as I intended. I guess you really don't ever know how close to success you are, until you get there. No major cuts yet with Songu, but now I've decided to stick around and keep trying for it. With the continued help from Alan Roy Scott and having learned a lot so far from Songu, I hope to achieve my dream of a major cut hitting the radio. Perhaps I'm already there? I'll hang on now for a while and see what happens! Thank you, Songu, for the hope!

    Hello, fellow SongU colleagues. I would like to share my current stroke of luck. During the Covid pandemic, I could not get out and gig. I hooked up with a friend who I have worked with on his indie-film projects, which is a real challenge and fun. Many times it does not require a complete song, just bits and pieces related to the scene. While working with my friend, he had the opportunity to be an assistant to the director of a well-seasoned cinematographer on "Art Thief," a soon-to-be-released movie that's been receiving critical acclaim in film festivals. They needed a song for a scene, and my friend shared one of my projects with the crew, and now I have a small part of my tune being sung and played by the actor who is actually playing a part-time songwriter. So, I guess it's important to share and expose your tunes at every opportunity. Because you just never know when someone may like it enough to put it in to motion.

    "Be Brave, Be Bold," a song I co-wrote with fellow SongU member Karen Mitchell and James Kocian, with vocals by artist Clayton Jones, won the 2023 UKSC Olympic category. As part of the prize, the song will be promoted during the Olympic Games this year. Thank you so much to my co-writers, Karen Mitchell and James Kocian, and also to Clayton Jones, who added his amazing vocals and production to make this all possible. Also, a shout out to the SongU feedback course instructors for giving some great feedback, resulting in lyric changes that improved the song. On another note, a slightly different version of this song (modified lyrics) is featured in "Jo and the Gigalytes," an original musical I co-wrote, which the Lāna'i Academy of Performing Arts (LAPA) in Hawaii will be performing in June of this year.
