song selling

Song selling takes place when a singer-songwriter earns money in exchange for the rights to use his or her original music, often to a (more) famous, or up-and-coming, recording artist.

If a singer-songwriter has written a catchy song but seems to fall short on vocal or instrumental ability, a listener might say, "you should sell your song." Hearing this can be extremely disheartening for singer-songwriters, especially those who are still developing their talents, or have not yet enjoyed their fifteen minutes of fame.
Why does song selling even exist? Any band or singer who is worth their weight can write their own songs.

steady leak

a slow internal bleeding that begins, often without a person knowing it, due to a foreign object being lodged in the body (i.e. a shard or small particle from a bullet).
Many of today's handgun bullets tend to break up and disperse inside the shooting victim's body, causing a steady leak, which can be fatal since it's difficult to detect.

safe music

songs easily identified by accessible melodies and catchy choruses, normally played on mainstream or pop radio stations. Safe music, or having safe musical tastes, is often singable and easy to listen to by a wide and diverse audience.
All Brian listens to is safe music. Whenever the tunes sound heavy or edgy, he changes the station.

asslicker

real job

steady employment with fixed salary and working hours, as well as potential for growth and advancement. Having a real job may mean working in a field that is incompatible with partying, taking drugs, or assuming an otherwise unconventional lifestyle.
People with so-called real jobs might enjoy high salaries, but what they trade off is the chance to experiment and discover what they truly want out of life.
