They Had to say
Using puns and
clever word play
To bypass censorship

Are different now
Is it better this way?~
Everythings allowed…

At some point a key change 2 semitones up for sure. With the chorus repeated. Right near the end.
Songwriting is so hard work, but filled with passion. I just finished my very first song. Would be great if you people could have a look (ear) and tell me your opinion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCa_tsZVFUU

Thank you!!
Brilliant ideas.
A reason for writing in the first place is having something to say about a given topic.
Also if you don't know what you're saying, I don't think you should be talking lol.
Thanks so much for this!!
The main challenge I face while writing a song is staying to the topic. And every time I edit my lyrics ,they loose their original vybe.
Hey, I really appreciate your poster behind the computer. That’s typical design for Polish posters so I recognised it immediately. Real work of art!

Ideally I think it's best to try and write something that means something. But a hell of a lot of songs don't seem to mean much. My favourite songwriter has always been John Lennon. He wrote a lot of meaningful songs but a lot of my favourites of his he admitted himself didn't mean anything. It doesn't make any difference to me, a song like Rain or Hey Bulldog meant nothing but I can still listen to them all day. Even a pointless story if told brilliantly with great melodies, rhythm, instrumentation can be a great song.
You just helped me so much just with that first tip ?? thank you !
Thank you for the tips
The problem is, I don't know what I want to say. How do I find out what I want to say?
Good stuff ??
cool info
Hey now I learned how to write songs by absorbing, by hanging around my friend who knew how to write. All he ever told me outright was to keep it simple. Of course I dont deal with today's radio hits kind of music they can pull that stuff out of the dirt
