The Best Songwriting Tips No One Ever Tells You ... ruclips.net/video/lADs6CIm4YE/видео.html
Time Marches on is indeed a great example of telling a lifetime in a song. Kids of the Baby Boom by the Bellamy Brothers is another: 100 years of American history told in 3 minutes. I'd say they are two of the best crafted pieces of writing ever, not just in songwriting, but any kind of writing.
I just realized that "Third Rock from the Sun" is a story song written in the present tense. Impressive.
I think Cat's in the Cradle is a great example of a song moving over time but staying in the present tense. Great info.
A story song can definitely move through time. And that’s a great one! Write on! CM
As always...killer information...thank Y'all for sharing...!!!
Thx Jimmy!
Great insight thanks guys ❤
Thank you
You're welcome!
Whew yeah that Bobby Braddock song is amazing!
Agreed!
Could you guys talk about money? How writers get paid, how is money handled when there’s multiple writers, what’s a smart way to go about the process regarding compensation, how to ensure payment is fair, etc.?
We teach about this a lot on our website because there is so much to unpack.. but here's a brief youtube video on it: ruclips.net/video/GlNHn8wI9Ks/видео.html
So to simplify one of your tips: basically the listener needs some foreplay and NOT rush into the big idea!!!
Yes, they need contest and setting. Then introduce the big idea. Foreshadow the big idea but don't give it away. ~CM
If you're telling a story in a song, like sitting around the campfire, your story might involve multiple characters represented by multiple pronouns - she, they, it, you and as well as I as narrator. One trick is to just leave the pronoun out where it seems too confusing and make it implicit.
From matrimony to alimony. There's a song there.
