@Venus: Yes. To compose you either have to know the theory or have good hearing ability. The theory helps you so that you can express an emotion more clearly, but many people compose without realising the theory. But Beethoven, who was deaf, could only use the theory to compose, or the song wouldn't sound the way he wanted.

I think everyone has good hearing ability (unless they are, deaf of course). I think most people creating music know when something sounds like they want it to whether they care about any hearing ability or not ;)

One of my friends and her sister went on state music camp last holidays, and came back and said they had songs with 11/8 and 13/8 time signatures. what a pain to count!

OK, I've been teaching myself guitar now- as you already know. But what should I really start learning first? See I've realised nothing about my training is logical. Just playing tabs. Should I try to learn chords first?

I used to play the Piano, but I quit. I can't dedicate myself to anything. :P
I did it for almost five years, unfortunately I had a really shitty teacher over the first three. I would literally get bored to tears at her lessons.
Ugh... I should have been at a way higher level than I was when I quit, and I hated having my Saturday mornings sucked away for something I quickly got tired of. My sister took lessons with me too. That girl has taken up and put down almost every instrument there is. I don't even know how my parents could put up with all that !@#$%. Seriously, she has played the piano, clarinet, guitar, violin, piano again, and the flute. She put them all down. The only thing she ever stuck with was Soccer, but she was going to quit that after, like two weeks, but my Mom went off on her after she realized that her daughter had been saturating her in !@#$%. Now she's actually into it quite a bit.
Anyway, I love piano music, and I have the fingers of a pianist, but I just don't have that kind of mind. I have more the composer's mind. That's why I have a music program. Oh yeah.

Mmh.

I've been playing the keyboard for, uh, 8 years or something,
and a year ago (or something?) I started practising my singing skills. (imo your voice is an instrument aswell, you gotta learn the technique. It's not that much about talent at all)

... and since last Monday I'm trying to teach myself how to play guitar, but I have no discipline and it's very likely that I'll give up soon. Unless I find someone around my place who wants to teach me for free lol.

I've been playing guitar for 7 Years.

Piano for 3 years. I taught myself on both.

My favourite stuff to play is my own band on guitar and 'To Zanarkand' on Piano.

OK, I've been teaching myself guitar now- as you already know. But what should I really start learning first? See I've realised nothing about my training is logical. Just playing tabs. Should I try to learn chords first?
I taught myself, Now I can play awesome. It's just time it takes. My suggestion is trying to learn techniques first. Then learning classic rock songs (even if you hate them like I do). Because lots of them show good theory. Then try writing your own stuff, and if it sucks learn to play some of the stuff from your favourite artist, then try writing some more stuff. Technique is the key though.

Only a year of singing? 'Cos you're frikkin' awesome. I've been working on my singing for about 10 months, but my singing teacher's been ill for a lot of that, so maybe not as much as I would've liked. Still a lotta progress, I've been told.

And I'd half agree with you that it's about practise, but some people are just talented enough to get away without it. Very, very few, though - I know maybe one or two and a lot who think they're good enough and really aren't. <__<

Been intensively playing with acoustic guitar for... Not too long, a year maybe, I've learned to play pretty quick. Taught myself, but I've considered taking lessons so I can read notes better and learn the right/better techniques. Also, I might buy an electric guitar.

:O Thanks!
Yeah, it must have been something about a year now. I can't stand listening to old recordings of my singing, they really suck.
Well, I've never taken any classes, they're way to expensive, so I think my technique isn't a very good one, but hey. xD
