The songs you hear on the buzzing/on the radio - when do you think they were made?
A) Last week?
B) Last month?
C) Last year?
I think most will agree that the answer is C.
What's my point? Songs take time to penetrate, time that a lot of talented DMV artists tend not to give to their songs. Instead of making a song and promoting, tweaking, plugging, playing, sending, and traveling with it to get it exposed and possibly catch on somewhere, we instead make a song, make another song, make another song, make another song, then complain that nobody gives your song a chance.
Well, there's a good reason for that. Nobody believes in your song because YOU don't!
If you slapped people over the head with ONE SONG over a period of say 6-12 months across as wide of an area as you can, I promise you more people would care. But this record, record, record, record, record cycle is an endless one that only will frustrate you (as well as anyone who has to hear you whine).
