Plentiful Original Ways To Composing A Favorite Song

Well, well, well, you want to write a Grammy contending song? Got a great coda but the chorus needs some work and the intro is not yet right? All the while, your mom is telling you to get a real job. Well, those are the things worth writing about for a great biography once you won your Grammy for the 18th time, or is the 19th time? Heck, who’s counting anyway. There are plenty of guides out there for writing that killer song with the killer guitar solo, here’s mine. Minus the guitar solo part, sorry dude…but read on still.

Title of the song: When writing a song, the title should be captivating and gripping (you know, like a vice grip that clings on their ears), usually the title is related to the song or the chorus.

Chorus: This is the part where it really sticks to their mind. Yeah, to the point it becomes mind-numbing to people who gets tired of listening to the chorus for the Nth time. Be sure to use repetition in your song to make it memorable.

Compelling lyrics: Your verses should shore up the case of the song. Always make sure that your song exhibits consistency all throughout.

Melody: You’re through with the lyrics, give the song a great rhythm and sound by using a cacophony of different sounds from different instruments.

Whip it up! The thought, lyrics, and melodies should come together in a single crystalline thought. The better the mix, the better your chances for airplay success.

Save it: Just as with any data that you work on, it’ll be very frustrating if you lose every precious letter and note of your song right? Well, save it then. Record it if you want, there are plenty of open source programs for budding musicians.

Just remember one rule, and that is: there are no rules in song writing. At times, the lyrics come first before the melody or the other way around, or they may come together. If you have that melody in your head, the best time to start is now.

Well, well, well, so you want to write a Grammy contending song? Got a great coda but the chorus needs some work and the intro is not yet right?
