write a good song

Debatable if I’ve actually done it I suppose but people seem to like it so :D

im working on it. i can never seem to finish one, but right now i am actually writing the music for it! i have most of the lyrics and yesterday i printed out some music paper and pulled out my keyboard and started putting down the melody. i am so proud!

Writing a song is not difficult. Anyone can do it; I’ve been doing it since I was 10. But there’s a difference between writing a song and writing a GOOD song. I want to create a work of art, an immediate classing, something that will last, something that others will feel, and ultimately something with which I’m completely satisfied.

I think the most difficult part is being pleased with my own music. When it comes to songcraft I’m a perfectionist, which results in much of my work never seeing completion. I write a lot of songs, but very few make the cut when I ask myself “Am I happy with this?”

This is not so important right now.

all of the songs I write arent really good when i’m done.

But nothing serious. And most things we do end up sounding like some other song. Like one time we wrote a really intro, but the song sounded like “Leaving on a Jet Plane”. I just don’t have the stuff, I guess. I’m in the process of writing a rap (yes, a rap) and I might post it on Youtube.

Iam so happy that i have written a very GOOD song..i couldnt be any happier lol
i just love writing and praticing everyday and i did it! I mean pratice makes perfect! yayyyy

I’ve been writing since i was 11 im 18 now but to be honest i love singing and writing songs..i feel like i havent wrote a hit song yet and ima keep writing until i do!

this is so subjective, but by my own standards (and i’m a bit of a perfectionist) i’d say that maybe a handful of the hundreds of songs i’ve written were good. i’ve had several songs on college radio, and people pay to see me play, so i guess there are people out there that think they are good…but then again, most of them are probably drunk. ;)
