Personally I use a hybrid approach, I typically start with rough lyrics, then I try to find a chord progression or melody that fits with the vibe of the song. After that, I take all of those ideas to my daw and produce the song, and add things that I originally hadn’t thought of, and finalize the lyrics and the composition of the song, and any extra things a

@getsmartquick 2 года назад

If you have something of value and meaningful then yes but If it's sophistry like most secular music then scat sing

@SongWritersChopShop 2 года назад

I recommend any method of songwriting tbh. One advantage of starting with lyrics is that it can give you provide you with the overall song concept and that can help you make musical choices. but ideas can come from anywhere, lyrics, music, melody, you got to know how to write from all possibilities.👍

@rafaelsantosx Год назад

@@SongWritersChopShop there are two different approaches, I think. You can start writing lyrics but as you write you also define the melody of those sentences. Or you can write just a text, like a poem, then come up with melody later. I can't do the second one properly, because if I come up with a good melody, I tend to modify the lyrics to fit in. Although I do the first one in some occasions, most of the time I come up with melody/chords first, then lyrics later (can be right next or take days/weeks).

She’s one of the few who I trust because she plays instruments. Unlike other “musicians” who act like they are really good at music even tho they have their producers and teams make the music for them.

@alonzomor112 Год назад

lmfao just because you don't produce your own shit does mean you're not a "musician" an artist figuring out how to structure their song in terms of (verse, chorus, bridge). and that is already hard enough to handle on your own not looking at actually playing the instruments idk why people hate so much on musicians that don't produce, even if they can't. they are still pretty much poets which you aren't but you want to judge.

@ArtisanAsteroid Год назад

Musicians don’t have to write music. You mean you only consider preformer-songwriters to be musicians.

@phi-losiphy2038 Год назад

You don't have to play instruments to be a good musician. Ever heard of Biggie Smalls, Tupac Shakur. The voice is also a very powerful instrument which takes a lot of breath control to practice and master. Educate yourself before you make comments like these!

@phi-losiphy2038 Год назад

You should educate yourself before you make these comments because Biggie, Tupac Shakur, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston etc don't know how to play instruments yet they're on of the best artists I'm history. The voice is also a powerful instrument which takes a lot of breath control and YEARS of practice to master.

I got a couple of lyrics they, sound like something Olivia Rodrigo would sing "You know you talk about her, like she walks on water and that's not the problem in full but, while you're undermining me, and up lifting her is there any part of you that can feel how I hurt My love was forgotten..........."

@ab6457 Год назад

is there any part in you that feels how hurt I am when you talk praises about her, like she is a miracle walking on water undermining me and uplifting me,or she is the light and am it's shadow or is it my love was long forgotten I would write it this way anyone tell is it right or am I being poetic

@madelynsparks9528 11 месяцев назад

I personally always start with a tune or chorus that I have in my head and then start from there. Once I have the groundwork for the song, only then do I start to write real lyrics. I feel like doing that method just allows the lyrics to naturally come into play without thinking too much about how to make it sound good in a song because you already have the song. I mostly just use filler words and sing nonsense when I get a tune in my head and that’s how it ends up working well for me

I dont even like her music that much but we need more lyricists in today's music, not just made up stuff with autotune and a pre-recorded beat

@elencobiavideoscantando8305 Год назад

Actually to write a song you can start from a pre-recorded beat Autotune is not that bad if you can use it… it’s just a plug in that can help you to correct the notes you missed even though some people use it as an effect in genres like trap or r&b… all singers use autotune in studio to make it sound good and on pitch. Or else some others use it to create ideas and demos for writing down melodies… because if you think it’s used because people can’t sing, then actually they can sound awful with it no matter how much autotune you used

@gatacelta 11 месяцев назад

"I've never felt this way for no one." I'm curious about her tendency in her lyric writing to use double negatives. She does it in several other tunes. "Just don't find no one better" etc. I think I've heard maybe Adele and Taylor do it, too. Occasionally I see it, but I've picked up on it the most with Olivia. I've always wondered if that's just taking some creative license, or if it serves another purpose I haven't thought of. I have to admit, my English teacher sensibilities struggle a bit with it! the urge to correct it is overpowering, but otoh I'm also all for creative writing, so I've got myself tied up in my own knot with this particular frame of lyric device. 🙃
