  • how to create imagery in a song? Well, it's not easy if no one is paying attention to your song. With all the artists out there trying to get a listener's attention, What can you do to get someone invested in your song if they are not paying attention?
    There are two key pieces of information we can rely on, 1. The best tool we have for creating imagery is the listener's imagination. And 2. When someone hears a song, especially for the first time, They hear musical elements first.
    There is a powerful way to create opportunities for the listener to use their imagination, using the elements of a song that work even if someone isn’t actively listening. In this video, I give you an overview of how to do that.

    First time I heard gotye on bbc radio 3 (I think) I new that was a number one hit. Whole song brings you in especially with the nursery rhyme melody and is very relatable.

      Yeah, it's catchy a.f., really creates the mood with the melody.

    Great info, took notes again!
    I can't imaging Axel Rose sitting down and doing all this stuff consciously though. "oh Slash, do you think we should add some unstable diatonic notes here?" I think talented people do this naturally to some degree and we have to theorise about it.
    Great job though - I think you'll have a lot of subscribers pretty soon!

      totally agree. Funny to think of them having a conversation about assonance after their tenth bottle of jack daniels tho. glad you got some value from it.

      Carpet Crawlers by Genesis. Such an absurd subject but the picture he paints is incredible.
      There's only one direction
      In the faces that I see
      It's upward to the ceiling
      Where the chamber's said to be
      Like the forest fight for sunlight
      That takes root in every tree
      They are pulled up by the magnet
      Believing they're free

    Fun Fact about the phrase "Where do we go now" in Sweet Child: They wanted to add this breakdown part, but Axl was unsure of a direction and repeatedly sang to himself, “Where do we go now?” Which happened to fit the song so they went with it.

    so can you make a song with only unstable tones? P.S what the heck with the dislike? P.P.S love the ending 😭

    • @SongWritersChopShop
      @SongWritersChopShop  4 года назад +2

      Cheers cazcazoo. I think using a mix of stable and unstable tone to support the emotion of your song would be more effective. It's one of those things where you let your ears guide you until you hit that 'ah ha' moment.
