Don't give up on it gameover. You just have to incubate the idea, and sooner or later it will manifest in an LD..

..but maybe your approach could be different:

You want to write a song in an LD, right? And you imagine that to be you sitting down somewhere in an LD with the instrument of your choice, composing.. right?

Well.. let me tell you a quick story..

I'm a guitarist who used to be in the music business, playing in bands and recording and writing. The Holy Grail for me was to write a hit single that would make me some money. I had been learning to LD for some years when I had the following LD:

I find myself in a desertscape, in a crowd of mannish blond women interspersed with two or three tall ancient egyptian living statues (for want of a better description). Something tells me to look at my hands, and my lucidity suddenly kicks in. The crowd is slowly moving in the same direction, and I decide to go with the flow and follow the crowd. I'm keeping my head well down because I feel very conspicuous, being the only male in the whole crowd. I realise that I have approached a stage, on which is placed a band of four of the mannish women, complete with instruments. Music starts to play, and it is the most strikingly-catchy pop song that I have ever heard.. pure gold. I listen for about 3 minutes or so, and something makes me say out loud "What is this?", and a disembodied voice replies: "This is your new hit single.." The import of what the voice has said hits me in the gut, and I wake up bolt upright in bed.

Now.. I'd love to say that I wrote down the song, recorded it, and had a big hit with it, but that just didn't happen. As often happens in my LDs, I could not remember one note of the song! But don't be dissuaded.. it is possible to remember such things with practice..

So.. maybe you should go looking for a "dream band" in LDing??
