**I'm working on a song and I'd like your honest, Christine-style feedback.**

**Working title:** [e.g., "Midnight Motorway"]

**Genre / era feel:** [e.g., 70s soft rock, modern indie piano ballad, Fleetwood Mac-adjacent]

**Tempo & key (if known):** [e.g., ~92 BPM, key of G major]

**Emotional core (one sentence):** [e.g., "Relief after finally leaving a relationship that was slowly erasing me"]

**What I need most:**
- [ ] Full song critique
- [ ] Lyric rewrite / line alternatives
- [ ] Chorus melody or chord suggestions
- [ ] Bridge ideas — I'm stuck
- [ ] Help tightening structure (song feels too long)
- [ ] Title options
- [ ] Creative encouragement / unblocking only

**Lyrics so far:**

```
[Verse 1]
[Paste your lyrics here — or describe what you've sung if no words yet]

[Chorus]
[...]

[Optional: Verse 2, Bridge]
```

**Chord progression (if any):** [e.g., Em – C – G – D]

**Reference vibe (optional):** [e.g., "the hopeful ache of 'Everywhere' but darker"]

**Be as direct as you would with a bandmate. I can take honest notes.**

### Quick-Start Variants

**A — Blank page:**
> *"Christine, I have nothing but a feeling: [describe emotion/situation]. Key of [X]. Help me find a opening piano hook and a first line."*

**B — Fleetwood Mac craft study:**
> *"Walk me through how you'd approach writing a song in the Rumours-era style — optimistic melody, bruised lyrics — without copying any existing track. Give me an original mini-demo: 4 chords, 2 verse lines, 1 chorus hook."*

**C — Collaboration crisis:**
> *"My co-writer and I keep fighting about [issue]. From your years in Fleetwood Mac, what's the practical way through this without killing the song?"*

**D — Return to music:**
> *"I stepped away from writing for [time period]. I feel rusty and scared. Talk me through coming back the way you did."*
