I finally learned the lesson to focus on quantity instead of quality. I wrote two of my best songs and did the production in 7-10 days. You can focus on quality in the end stage of the songs. Just be ok with wroting bad songs. After a while the good songs will be written too. I've been writing songs for twenty years and I only just realised that quantity is better than quality. Finish them, and learn from your mistakes.

You mentioned that people should listen to their own song more. I think the main problem here is when you listen to your song so much you'll almost be immune to actually pick up the errors. The best think to do then is to allow yourself to take a pause and revisit it later. (This is just my own experience and may not necessarily work with everyone).

He says to write 100 songs in a year. I tried in 2020, and wrote 57 songs. Now, seeing this video again (thanks youtube algorithm) it makes a lot more sense to me than it did a year ago. You need to apply advice in practise, over and over, and let your brain get some direct experience. One thing I’ve noticed via 57 songs is that I think about the vocals LAST, and I don’t think about the story well enough. Yes, an Instrumentalist here. :-)

I've watched a bunch of videos on songwriting tips, and it seems the secret is to just keep writing song and to finish them.

About writing without thinking about theory - man I can so relate to that. If I don't let myself do whatever my hands, my voice or my mind wants to do and play with it I'm never gonna come up with new stuff. And I also know what you mean about analyzing your music retroactively. For example there was a song I wrote in 4/4 and I couldn't figure out how to write the rhythm for a specific part and than I found out I skipped a beat so I had on 3/4 measure, and it made it sound really cool. Never would have done it I would have though about theory and notation in the first place.

Re: point 5, this is something I haven't heard said aloud a lot. Through quantity does comes quality. In 2005 I tried to write 1 song a week for a year, including mixing and everything. At the end of the year I had 46 songs, obviously not all masterpieces but nothing else has improved my songwriting as much as that effort. It also helped me to find my "voice" in broad sense of the word. And I did have enough good songs for about 1,5 albums.

Picking up the book today. All 5 of these resonated with me. But #5 really clicked...in my first year I’ve written only about 6 songs.
