I was dreaming,
You were scheming,
Now I wonder why,
Did I let you,
Say I was special,
For the way I smile.
Time went past,
I was getting mad,
Seeing you with other girls.
I guess that’s how it works,
In the real world,
Now I’ve gotta figure it out.
i know it’s really bad but i wrote it like 3 years ago, so yeah
LOVE YOU ELISE!!!
I'm totally going to add ukulele to this!!!
I need more lyrics and I will make this a song!!!!
wow
Breanna Giasson okay!!
It’s actually really good
I love.
This
So

Thank you!!:)
You’re awesome! I’ve been using your tutorials! Also, can you do a singing tutorial/lesson?
OMG THIS IS THE EARLIEST THAT IVE EVER BEEN
lol
Your so pretty💖

@@chelai8579 You got a reply from Elise aaaaaah
@@pietervanwaes3730 AM I IN HEAVEN??!
I’m getting a ukulele soon and I can’t wait to learn how to use it and write my own songs
Yay! That's so exciting!!:) best of luck Xx
@@EliseEcklund I 💕 u
I don't even do the verses, chorus', and bridge.
i just do whatever and make the melody in my head and figure out the keys on my keyboard and i use notepad to write the lyrics
Thank you so much for the videos I love coming to my computer to see that you have a new vid!!!
Cave town songs are my favorite. I like that he describes modern problems in such a gentle way, and that’s what I like about it, but I physically cannot write like that, but I want to :(
This will help me in the future
I want to write a song but ooooooffff!!!!!! ❤️🤤😍👌
just go for it!:)
Elise Ecklund ahhhh you respond thx and I will when I finish the song I will post it on RUclips
Still waiting
Still waiting
As a "songwriter" (bc I can only write one chorus or a few lines and then lose inspiration), this is helpful. Keep up the good work, Elise :)
Oh my gods, same! I’be been working on a song for about a few months now, and I just can’t write the second half of the chorus
this is unPrOfEsSiOnAl?
this is legit the best advice ever
Love your profile pic and name😂😍
I'M GETTING ONE OF YOUR MAGO LELES
YAYYYY
I write songs. Mostly about depression and stuff. I like your singing and personality. Just saying. You seem like a very chill girl.
Elise: This is my unprofessional advice
Me: *Writes 10 songs with this advice*
I CRI EVERYTIEM

"Tired"
Everything Now, Is So Tireing
Everything I Do, Always Seems So
Blue, And Now Im So Sorry For Everything I've Done
Im Not Sure..
What to do anymore-
And I'm So Tired
Of Living, On this Earth
And All I Wish For Is
Happiness to come back
Like before but now everything
Is so dull, I'm So Tired Of Living
Hiding My Scars, Im Not So
Happy Anymore
No One Seems To Be Happy No More
And Everything So Blue, So Sad
No One Sayin "Hey There Lad"
No one seems to be..okay..anymore.
Im Really Sorry Thi Is Bad, My Feelings And Opinions..👁👄👁
hugs! hi hope your ok now but you sound sad so here's another hug.:3 don't worry your art and songs are amazing and remember you've improved a bunch at it so don't worry. so I'm not very good at advice and stuff but music is cool. and potatoes. and tea. and lofi. and cats. and talk to the friends. and its ok to ask for help and stuff it doesn't make you a dumbass.
hoped this helped with life a bit. hugs!:D
i found the perfect melody for this
but this song seems sad and i hope ur ok :)
I hope ur ok😔
Thank You Elise!! You have Great Advice!!! Love you!!
Just got my ukulele in the mail. I'm so excited to start practicing. Great video ❤😊
You're amazing and beautiful 😊😊
Thank you so much!:)
@@EliseEcklund np
I stopped listening to This Is Gospel to watch this. *NO REGRETS*
Gsus, I was too!
I WAS TOO
That's dedication
"All you sinners stand up sing HALLELUJAH!"
Thank you so much. Your videos are awesome and I was actually in the middle of writing a song (it's super cringey XD) , but I got stuck and couldn't progresss. Then I saw your video and thought this couldn't get any better. Point taken I took a break watching your video and now I am ready to finish the song. Thanks for all the advice and keep on the great work
This is so helpful! Tysm I love your channel 👏👏👏
good video Elise your so pretty!!
thank you so much!:)
Elise Ecklund np!
Ashley Playz hi Ashely
I LOVE YOU
This video was so helpful. I've always loved listening to people's originals on RUclips and wanted to write my own song but never knew how to start - as you said, the amount of freedom and infinite choices for how to go about it were overwhelming. But after watching your video I straight up went for it, picked up my uke, and wrote a (half decent I think, maybe hopefully) original song! In like an hour and a half! I'm amazed. Something in your words just clicked and I did the chord-progressions-then-word-vomit and I'm so happy it worked out okay. I'm going to keep at it now that I know I can do it and have a game plan for this. Thanks for this video, it provided me with the strategy and no-pressure encouragement I needed. :)
This is the video i needed!! Thank you so much!
The problem with me is that I could start songs but I could never finish them...
THANK YOU SO MUCH
you're welcome!:)
I LOVE YOUUUUUUU
Yeeeeeeee this helps! 👍THANKS ALOT ELISE!
