Just finished...." Two by five" Robbie Russell. Finally a song with sections.......With your help , I'm closing in on better songs.Thanks for all your help . I can't....not finish ....a song, I just keep at it. Two by five took me 5 months and probably 4o lyric changes. I'm ok with it if I can prove growth in my choices. Of course I'm too close to it, but even I, can see growth and progress at least in the right direction. This channel is so helpful. The more I learn though , the more I see is involved in creating a good/great song. Now I need to be less wordy :) Write On !

Impossible to watch videos on this channel without taking notes. So many gems in this one. I recently took 2 songwriting classes at Berklee Online (Harmony and Melody). Both were wonderful but they were all about the music, and I needed guidance on crafting lyrics. Keppie’s videos have provided the much-needed missing piece. Many, many thanks to you!!

Since getting a dog, my creative juices have soared. I’m convinced that the rhythm of walking and “zoning out” are amazing exercises for songwriting.

So helpful. One of my main tips that I use to finish songs, even though I've only got two done in my short career, is to... Get away from the song! If you have the ability and time, let your subconscious work on it. Come back and hear it fresh. Then get to work. Then stop. Eventually, though, you Then need to really sit down and polish. As part of this process, I really try to edit out anything that is superfluous and get to the CORE of what is happening. A fresh ear is really good for finding when you're doing way too much

Thank you so much H.T.W.S. I find you truly inspirational in my song writing and song writing ideas, sometimes it's easy to start a song but a bit difficult to conclude and finish. I love going for a walk in the park where I reside here in So-Cal and find that to be very useful, again I'm grateful for all the things you do for us all in teaching the craft.

This video is so useful, at the moment I’m really struggling with the fear of failure. I think that’s what it is. I don’t want to start a new song because I don’t want to find that I can’t finish.

I like the funnel analogy. I often come up with parts of a melody or a chord progression that sounds like it might be the basis for a great song. (But, and I can tell what the rest of the analogy will be...) But, I never take it to the end, and complete it, putting all the finishing touches on it. When I first started playing guitar I was much younger, and I could write good lyrics. Then I would come up with a few basic chords (actually, I didn't find out until MUCH later how complex they actually were, lol), and make a song. When I performed it for friends, they always liked it! (Surprised me!) Nowadays, I don't bother, because I can't really sing all that great, and don't have great lyrics any more! But, I'm learning!

I've been "winging it" my whole life, and I am so glad that I have stumbled onto you and your amazing processes. I have gone back to some of what I have already created to find where I might have actually used your techniques unknowingly, as it helps me solidify it in my brain...concept worked=concept good=use again! What I struggle with a lot is how to edit ideas. How do you narrow down 7 minutes of lyrics that you feel work down to an acceptable consumable 3 to 4 minutes? Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

The immersive listening tip is really interesting. If I kept a song in mind and listened to artists I love I think I’d end up consciously or subconsciously taking parts of that song 😂 how do you avoid that?
@acousticmonkey2209
@acousticmonkey2209 4 месяца назад
One factor I definitely use is having an angle, theme or concept when writing. So if I want write a song about Christmas, I would write all the ideas, colours and emotions that come to mind. That way, if I write two verses and a chorus and want to add to it 6 hours later, I still have all the ideas in front of me or in my head to play with. Saying, "I want to write a song about love" is too broad, so you have to narrow down each of the angles e.g. new love, cheating, desire, waning love, etc.🙂

What if finishing my songs fails upon struggling to find a proper melody finish for the chorus? I always come up with a great hook melody but it's mostly only part 1 of something that sounds like a phrase, and everything I come up with for part 2 sounds lame
