  5. Being humble, listening, and being willing to combine ideas is a HUGE part of collaboration. And to those who are being all poopy about pop songwriters, or about them not singing their own songs, go be a downer somewhere else. It's tough to write a hit song, and some people want to write music but not deal with the performance side of things. Also, if you want to eat, you make things with commercialability to pitch to labels, and write the other things that mean more to you personally for yourself or smaller artists. Songwriting is an art, regardless.

  11. Can you check out the group (4th Impact) they got the most views in the history of the X Factor, 180 million views, they are so talented ??

  13. So that means if your favorite artist has a very meaningful lyric, they probably didn't write it.
    And if they have a cringy lyric, they also probably didn't write it as well.

  15. These songwriters are bottom of the barrel. They are not poets they are not mathematicians they are garbage men recycling disposable products.

  20. Hi, I'm a film student looking for a songwriter to write an upbeat pop or funk song with me from scratch. It would be paid. If interested send me a link to some song you have writtens in those genres to songwriter44@yahoo.com.

  24. Why don't the original writers play out as a band? Stop furthering advertising specialists!! Billionaires made it so your name doesn't show up in history ?

  31. Miss when the singers actually wrote the songs and composed their own songs , like imagine just Bieber cranking out all these songs on a piano and guitar like the Beatles .

  33. Please review my lyrics

    Intro

    Would you go on
    would you go on

    Chorus

    If you uncovered you were
    the one man alive in the world
    the one man alive in the world

    The end of the world
    everybody's gone
    and you are alone
    alone in the world

    …. what you'd do
    …., tell me who you d be
    ….. tell me where you'd go to

    Verse 2

    Life has meaning when we're all together.
    It is way worth living, when we love each other.
    We all have weaknesses, but together we are stronger.
    I know life aint perfect, but we can make it better
    we can live it better,we can leave it better

    No matter how hard your lives can sometimes be
    There'll still be room for joy — if we still can meet
    Whatever the hardships you might be going through .
    There'll surely be someone waiting to walk you through

    Chorus

    If you uncovered you were
    the one man alive in the world
    the one man alive in the world

    The end of the world
    everybody's gone
    and you are alone
    alone in the world

    …. what you'd do
    …., tell me who you d be
    ….. tell me where you'd go to

    Verse 2

    Family and friends, the greatest gift in life
    love and value then, while they still alive
    cause one minute they here, they next they disappear
    now is the time, don't wait for next year

    fear made you leave, you missed the end of the war
    nostalgic , you come back, but it's the end of the world
    you wanted to save your life, now you re the only alive
    what your life will now be ,
    if on earth your the only one to be

    Chorus

    If you uncovered you were
    the one man alive in the world
    the one man alive in the world

    The end of the world
    everybody's gone
    and you are alone
    alone in the world

    …. what you'd do
    …., tell me who you d be
    ….. tell me where you'd go to

    Outro

    If you uncovered you were
    the one man alive in the world
    the one man alive in the world

    Would you go on
    would you go on

  36. So much time has passed. But you are just the same. Perhaps only more beautiful. Perhaps a bit more mature. I had so much to tell you. But now that you're standing here. I'm lost for words. God how do I tell her that. I hope she understand . I hope she finally learns. You were my great love. I used to draw your portrait. You were beyond my grasp. You were beyond my grasp. You were the epitome of beauty. This is how I painted you and I hid you somewhere at the bottom of my heart . I'm still thinking about you…

  41. These people should be thrown in the ocean. Their music is garbage they poison the world . our culture dies a little more very day

  42. I've been a songwriter for 35 years. Never written a #1 hit. If I go another 35 years without a #1 hit and write for ME & from MY heart with NO concern of what pop crap is popular or what will make me a buck. I'll consider myself a success! I could give a rat's arse what "lady" ca ca or justin tweeber are "going through". Of course I admire these writer's success but good God, write for YOURSELVES not whatever crap star, uh sorry, "pop star" that can put a $ in your pocket! Write songs with MEANING, heart & soul. Not silly drivel for the masses!

  44. Their live's are so much nicer like they write some of the biggest songs and they can still live a normal life unlike the artists

  47. This is why pop music is the industry dominant: Because if the pop stars were left to write their own music, it would be a failure (undisciplined culture) leaving the industry exposed to natural selection (those who are more disciplined and passionate whom actually write good and involved material such as what metal artists do, yet rarely get the recognition for it because of the industry of pop hacks). If this wasn't a world of labels hiring boomers to do the hard work for the spoiled pop stars, many more people would be listening to quality song writing by those with more intelligence and integrity, and helping to raise the IQ of the general public.

  49. I know someone that has written over 5000 songs in less then 2 years and some of them are on YT under josh Ewart and the guy who done his videos for him cayden cole

  50. I feel like an Alien. When I write Songs I always have the chords and melody first. And then I Look for the Text that could fit good with the rhythm and melody
