well, in the music business it doesn't matter much if you're good or not.
When I say good, I mean an artist that could sell many records..., so good for the record company...

It's all about being persistent.. even in a crazy way... The Beatles were rejected 200 times by record companies. Yes... many times for every company in England then, lol. EMI signed them when they heard the third demo from them.

And that only happened a long time ago????

nonono.... if you take out singers that are famous for being previously famous or being the wife or the boss of the record company or so, it's still the same.

Lucie Silvas said it took her 10 years of sending demos to release a record. The most successful band in Spain were refused 80 times or so, they say.

And well... not everyone is as successful as that band or Lucie Silvas (not to mention The Beatles :-P :-))... and... anyway... they have been signed!.
How? Maybe only because of that persistence of showing up again and again... It doesn't matter much how do you do it... if you show up.
:-)

But well... as Steve Pavlina or... Paul McCartney would say... there is a fine line between showing up and spamming...
:-D...
