Hey guys! I've noticed a lot of you are looking for feedback and in-depth help with your own lyrics you've been posting in the comments. I'm now hosting monthly one-on-one songwriting workshops via my Patreon. Check it out if you're interested (link to Patreon in bio) and I'd be happy to help! Keep writing! :)
How do i make a
Whitney Houston - I Will always love you song ?
i mean how must i start to write
a masterpiece like this one ?
Can you help me ?
I like the sound of your voice👍
Many thanks, I been tryin to find out about "songwriting basics" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Honora Xenndrew Magic - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my cousin got great results with it.
Yeah well I need help in my
I must be getting really fucking desperate because I'm watching this
cMaXeJIJIo hope it helps! :)
cMaXeJIJIo a source of RE-inspiration always helps =D
cMaXeJIJIo can't hurt to get inspiration from others!
cMaXeJIJIo SAME HERE
To begin, maybe you can write a song about your desperation watching this. So all is not lost, just be creative a little bit and everything's gonna be alright. Cheers...
Okay I'm midway this one right now:
Teen
So many roads to take
So many rules to break
So many laughs to fake,
So many fears to shake off.
I'm aware but completely lost
Which roads that I have crossed
So awake but unconscious still,
There are spaces yet to fill.
Pre ch-
And I'm on my way
There's not much to say,
Cause I can't keep track of truth and lies,
Of night and day.
My future's my past
But I can't make it last,
Forever turning around the bend,
This can't be the end
Ch- Woah,
I'm standing at the fire but my heart is numb with cold.
Woah,
I've got a map in hand but confusion increases tenfold
Woah,
I'm painting bright colours but they can't be seen.
Woah- I'm a teen.
No emotions left inside
Counting down my sleepless nights
Lie awake in thought till day,
Wondering if it'll be okay.
Strong blizzards and countless rains
Leave a mark on every surface
I try to wipe 'em off I try,
But they just leave me stubborn stains.
Yeah, kinda cliché...
That's really good
Aeesomeeeeee....., (jaw dropped)
That's really good
Ayyy thanks guys :D
I like this a lot lol
How is this? It's called, "Send Me Home!"
Give me a reason to not give up/
Give me a reason to not give in/
But tonight, the children fall in line/
Waiting for a savior, they can call their devine/
Send me home/
Send me home/
I'm lost, but not alone/
Send me home/
Send me home/
The lonely road will lead me home, but know you're not alone/
As the shadows consume me/
Nothing's in my way/
My heart's only fading/
My skin dark grey/
I am only waiting/
My mind's only changing/
I won't fade away/
No, I won't fade away/
Send me home/
Send me home/
I'm lost, but not alone/
Send me home/
Send me home/
The lonely road will lead me home, but know you're not alone/
The echoes surround us/
No way out/
The whispers around us/
Lost but never found/
I break the silence with this prayer/
Maybe it was all in my head/
Never there, never there, never there, never there/...
Send me home/
Send me home/
I'm lost, but not alone/
Send me home/
Send me home/
The lonely road will lead me home, but know you're not alone/
After when all of the pain is gone/
I heard the rain marking dawn/
I've survived another day/
With all my memories in the way/
Happy I shall stay/
Even though her birthday was in may/
Happy I shall stay/
Give me a sign that I'll be okay/
Send me home/
Send me home/
I'm lost, but not alone/
Send me home/
Send me home/
The lonely road will lead me home, but know you're not alone/
+colbywhittle1 This is good. Bravo
I just sung this in my head. This would be a great song!
Did you compose the music yet? I know somebody who's looking for collaboration at the moment.
+Melissa Kester if you can message me here on RUclips then I'll let you know what's going on. if not, email me.
+Melissa Kester both ways are fine. I've got lots of ideas for songs btw. yep I meant I wanted to collab with somebody. the last comment I made was a typo. but yeah, thats great!

+EmmaMcGann I love u :P ♥
thank you :)
best video ever
Having a little notepad and pen or pencil or a digital recording device so any little songwriting or poetic thoughts that pop into your head can be captured right away is so helpful. Don't think about how "good" it is because for one you might loose the poetic or melodic thought and for two you might like it better or get different ideas later. Poetry in a different form is what music is.
If you've ever dreamed of writing a song, but stopped because you’ve never written a song in your life before, and can't shake the feeling that it just might be something you'd be good at or if you've ever tried your hand at songwriting before, and nothing's turned out the way you hoped or if you've ever written songs that you're happy with, but can't expand your creative horizons or if you've ever found yourself stuck in the arid desert of writer's block or if you're a prolific songwriter with racks of demo tapes and a thirst for marketing knowledge - then check this link out. tinyurl.com/y7jbtr73
I wouldn't call myself a songwriter per say, But when my dad makes me feel like shit and makes me feel worthless, I get all these little lyrics/verses in my head and I usually write them down and sometimes I try to rearrange them into a "song". My ideas are depressing and what not. That's the only time why I get song ideas and stuff, nothing else makes me think of lyrics. I have quite a few song names and stuff.
used to be this way but isolation helped me think and I'd think about how I was feeling at that time "example"
freezing hell I'm Feeling well over my head...
and so on I eventually got better at completing songs I'd right hopefully This helps you
p.s. I listen to allot of rock and I've been looking for other styles to go off of like jazz. country. electric. trash. something but I haven't gotten it yet
Dylan Wilson i'm like that too ugh
i do not have writers block. My writer just hates the clock.

It will not let me sleep I guess I'll sleep when I'm dead... sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head.. |-/
It will not let me sleep, I guess I'll sleep when I'm dead. And sometimes death seams better than the migraine in my head |-/ |-/ |-/

it will not let me sleep
i literally followed most of her tips and i straight away got quite a decent song!
+Ayshathe sushikitty good to hear!
I think writers block is just a lack of inspiration. Find a way to be inspired again
Exactly Madeline! :)
Totally, nailed it
+Madeline Abiera i agree lately im feeling so bored and uninspired that i don't even want to get near my guitar
For me writers block is when my songs sound really cheesy.
oh samee
I've finally written a song thanks soooo much
epic Emoji 123 love ur profile picture can't wait for season three
Try starting out with
"what would make people think when they listen to this song?"
Also. Another tip,
DON'T WRITE YOUR SONGS IN THE COMMENTS SECTION.
sweet god this so good
the comment above yours is a song lmao
This is super helpful! Thanks for posting this. I'm in the middle of writing 100 songs in 100 days on my channel and have a few tips of my own if anyone's interested. Would love to hear anyone's thoughts / advice / etc.
1. Don't give up on songs too early! In forcing myself to finish a song a day, I've had many songs that I would've trashed halfway through if I didn't set this deadline, and have been pleasantly surprised with all of them. Any finished song is infinitely better than a half finished song that was never finished.
2. Set some constraints! The hardest essays have no prompts. Force yourself to include a certain word or phrase in your lyrics, common or uncommon. Force yourself to write a chorus with only 3 words. Force yourself to use a concept you heard in another song, or to finish a song in a day. Constraints require you to come up with ideas you would have never thought of otherwise and facilitate creativity.
3. And some random "writer's block" tips: try moving things around (switch lines in the chorus, make the first verse the second verse); exercise and eat a small snack (5-10 minute walk and peanuts will do) and come right back to it; ask songwriter friends for advice and opinions, and ALWAYS return the favor!
Let me know if you have any tips, and thanks again for this video Emma!
+Andrew Tufano Great tips Andrew! What a great idea - I'll be sure to subscribe and keep up to date with your project :)
EmmaMcGann Appreciate it! Thanks for reading!!
How is this?
*The Invisible Girl*
You seem so strong
You seem so fierce
When I look in your eyes
I see it clear
You see right through me
You do not care
Like I'm invisible
So invisible
Everything about you
Your eyes to your hair
It drives me crazy, but you do not care
Like I'm invisible
'Cause I'm invisible
So invisible
The invisible girl
You are perfect, so sublime
And I'm still standing
Last in the line
You don't see me
Like I'm invisible
Still invisible
You see right through me
You do not care
Like I'm invisible
So invisible
Everything about you
Your eyes to your hair
It drives me crazy, but you do not care
Like I'm invisible
'Cause I'm invisible
So invisible
The invisible girl
Change will never happen
Life stays the same
Forever and always
Sincerely, the invisible girl
Not bad at all deep work
Where are you from?
Lovely energy from you, and helpful tips! Thank you!

ruclips.net/video/zFq2006Y7E4/видео.html
Thanks for the tips Emma! I want to write a song for my best friend who has cancer. She's been really down and weak so I want to bring her spirits up by writing a song with memorys and how she is my best friend for her so thank you for this it really helped😊
That's an incredible gift to give to your friend, I'm sure she would love and appreciate that xx
I'm totally gonna use these tips because they are really helpful ❤️ (btw it's me LittleKaci on YouNow)
This is the first time I've ever commented on a RUclips video, but I cannot help myself.
You summarised everything a beginner might need to know, without skipping or over-explaining any of the concepts. I love the fact that you are clearly chasing your dream with your own albums, but also giving back to those who are starting where you did. I will definitely watch more of your vlogs and may even check out your one-on-one sessions!
Well done, it was excellent! Keep up the good work. I will now be listening to your album:)
This blog has refreshed my mind as far as getting back into writing & creating music goes. Thank you for this.
UPDATE: Reply with some songwriting tips you'd like me to focus on for my new Songwriting Quick Tips series. I'll credit you and your suggestions in future videos. (New episodes every other day)

EmmaMcGann alot of people get inspiration from visuals as well and other forms of art, and I prefer drawing or painting.
EmmaMcGann some more info about different ways of recording instruments or vocals would be quite nice!
EmmaMcGann pls help me 😭😭😭
recording ur freestyles to scout for ideas
EmmaMcGann Can you do a video on how to get inspired for song writing
thanks emma! you have helped me alot with these handy tips! i'll put them to good use!
+Rik Wiewel No problem Rik! Good luck with your writing!
I remember watching a documentary about creativity and it actually agreed with your third to last tip I think lol that doing things that you normally do but in a different way will make you a more creative person. Thanks for the vid!
Hafizah Kouyate No problem! Being creative out of your comfort zone can bring about new ideas :)
You are a really amazing vlogger! Those were really helpful tips! So excited for the future vlogs!

+EmmaMcGann Hey! Thanks for those tips. I'm making my first song at ten so I really needed help. ( :
please follow me at mastervideo56 P.S. I don't do videos
+Jacob Claro thats great bro and you will be successuf at it ok, i just believe that kid, take care , god bless :-)
how's this though? my song's named "Wasting Time"
[VERSE]
you say it's amnesia
you say it's the pain
there's no turning back from
the memories we made
you were my halo
yeah make no mistake
you promised me heaven
you broke my heart instead
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
see, i told you I can't be
the same without you
fading away, yet shining so bright
[CHORUS]
you were the morning sky then you turned out the lights
you led me on and then disappeared in the night
I want you to stay, oh baby but hey
I wanna thank you for wasting my time
I thought about our future now it's a past time
You were my favourite colour, now I'm colourblind
I want you to stay, oh baby but hey
I wanna thank you for wasting my time
Thanks for wasting my time
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Boo,
please say that it's not true
I matter to you
Fading away, yet shining so bright
Daryl Pang this is sooo good!
OMG U NEED TO BE A SINGER
THIS IS SOOOOOO GOOD
Omg I love it! My favorite part was the color blind lyric! You are so creative 😮
+Daryl Pang ~I know this was 9 months ago but dude that chorus is awesome!
Gave me some practical structure ideas. Thank you for posting.

Recording songs? Me singing it? Nah.. I use Vocaloid 4!
yay Vocaloid lol
Sasori Danna ive been trying to find a vocaloid but never can, lol
Okay... so my dream is to be a professional musician. I write lyrics and have the melodies for them in my head, but I can't play any instruments or read or write music. Where can I go to learn to read and write? A music theory class? And what instruments must I be able to play if I want to do that? Also, is there anything else I need to be able to do in order to get a shot at my dream?
Any advice Emma? Thanks for this video!
Christy Avery My guitar teacher showed me how to read music so I could play guitar. Whatever instrument you are most interested in i suggest you get a teacher of that instrument show you
Maddy Cat ohh ok. Thank you!!!
Christy Avery Hey Christy, a music theory class would be a great start. What instrument are you most interested in taking up? Learn something that you'll know you'll enjoy. There's also endless resources online for learning to read and write music. But seeking out a tutor will be really beneficial for you :)
You already have your lyrics and melodies and the fact that you're willing to learn more about music theory shows your dedication towards becoming a professional musician. Be persistent and you'll get there!
Learning Guitar and Piano, in my opinion, is crucial because those instruments are most used when attempting to develop music; however, dont be afraid to learn something different if you want to. My dream is to learn how to play the cello. But there are a variety of things that you can learn how to do.
I have the opposite problem I can play but it's so frustrating coming up with songs😫 lol
This was absolutely great! I loved it!
Very in-depth and will be incredibly helpful for songwriters. You cover many topics that are important such as the writer's block myth and mapping out the story and structure of a song. 2 thumbs up!
The tip about writer's block just kicked me in the pants. Clearly, I need to go write something now. Thanks for the reality check Emma! :)
Ella Glasgow Glad it helped Ella! Feel free to post some links to your own music x
Beautiful accent, your voice is music to Mexican to my ears, excellent job!
Hope these tips have helped you so far! More Songwriting videos coming soon! I'm releasing a new album in July - you can support my upcoming album 'B.R.A.V.E' on Kickstarter here: bit.ly/McGannBRAVE
This was really helpful to refresh back to the basics. Thank you so much for this video!
I did a comment before about a song I did.
I've improved my writing and have come up with this.
Bury Me Alive
Verse 1:
I wear a mask
But inside head
I feel naked.
I am aware
That I am scared
Im running out of air
These words on paper
Are haunting me
But how would you know
YOU CANT SEE
The sirens in my brain
give me headache.
Prechorus:
But I have, an idea
(Gradually starting to shout) I can get out of here.
Chorus:
Bury me alive!
I wont give up without a fight
burn my hands,
burn my feet,
kill me insideeeeee!
I know I am am different,
I know that im scared
But my writers block is preventing me.
My secrets my lies, my undiscovered ryhmes
will bury me alive!
Verse 2:
The red alarms inside my head
will never stop until im dead.
I might die tonight.
These nightmares are memories.
Memories of black evergreen.
Black thorns and blueberrys.
These deadly seconds -
wasting time.
Whats the point
OF THIS CRUEL LIFE
The echos in my brain give me headache.
Prechorus:
But I have, an idea
(Gradually starting to shout) I can get out of here.
Chorus:
Bury me alive!
+VyperZ I like it. :)
Klainer Reynolds There was more But YT cut it off
Damn :/
+Klainer Reynolds I has learnt to metaphors.
wow love it you should record it
I love u for this cause I'm really struggling till now Thank uuuu😅😅😅😅😅😘😘😘😘😘😜😜😜😜😜😜
Awesome video Emma! Really helped inspire me to continue writing music. Keep it up✌🏿️
This helped a lot Emma :) Thank you!
Also, your accent is amazing!
+Kian12 Thanks Kian :) Glad this has helped you
I have to disagree about writers block though, I have songs that I started 30 years ago and just cant finish them. I have tried and tried and tried but just cant finish them, and some of them I feel were my best songs. I know I write shit songs but they come from my heart... I don't write pop songs or whats popular, just what I feel and I suppose that's why they never seem good enough.
I love you Emma McGann...and James too.:)
wow that is hard stuff. you started writing them 30 years ago and you never have the inspiration to finish them? What about working together with someone? I also know a writers block, but it only has something to do with your current state of mind I would say. ;))
glueheis I do collaborate with people but that's not so easy. Sometimes songs are so personalized it just doesn't happen....I get tired too.....at least in my case I do. Im not like Emma I just write words and its hard to convey the rest of the song to others, like the music composure and stuff, not counting that I have to find someone that agrees to do it in the first place....it usually takes me about 8 months to get a song done after writing one.
I do agree also with your statement about a current state of mind. Usually If I don't write a song in 30 minutes to an hour it will never get done....PLUS I have said many times before I don't think I ever wrote a song sober. That's just me though and how my experience goes ....you know? Im certainly not a real songwriter. At least not one that pumps them out everyday.:)
I was trying to figure out song structure, so for Taylor Swift's You Belong With Me is this right? Please someone tell me?
Verse
Verse
Pre-chorus
Chorus

Bridge

it seems correct.
Karthik Sankaran Okay. Thanks! :)
Why would there be two verses in a row? It's just one verse.
Brandon Newhouse Songs can have two verses in a row. However, if the song has a chorus that is distinct from the verses (as opposed to a refrain which is actually built into the verses) people often refer to the two verses at the beginning of a song as only one verse.
maitreyee ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ I
Brilliant, confident and lively delivery, with remarkable content. Keep it up.
Thanks David!
Thank you so much for these great songwriting tips Emma! :)
You're so welcome! :)
I thought of a chorus for a song.
If this is my end
Will you live on friend
Keep on facing the dead
without any fear
As the light grows dim
Promise me that you'll win
When the dark closes in
Without any fear
Anyone have any feedback or suggestions?
Great chorus. I kinda want to hear the song.
+Jaylah Glass lol same
I love it
recording your freestyles ur ideas tend to be at the top of its creative fllow
+Gosberto Coy agreed!
You are so amazing. I don't know how you manage to be so social. Your the nicest person I ever ran into. Your first vlog is an excellent one, those are awesome song writing tips.
I love you :)
willythewave Thanks for the kind words Willy!
You vlog like a pro for it to be a first go :O I'm amazed. Thank you so much for this! I've written a lot of poems and was trying to find a way to convert them into song format, and this helped a lot. So prepared for song writing club this year!
Hows this
I got a fright cause you left me within the night/
I should've known that would happen with the way you looked at her/
But no I wont go down without a fight to get my man back in my life/
+Beth Hochuli That's awesome!!
love!
+Roberto Davidson thanks both of you
Don't focus too much on rhyming. Make your song meaningful. That should be your only focus. And go outside the box and don't use predictable or simple words.
+Beth Hochuli Don't want to be captious but where are the rhymes? :/ I'm a beginner but your three lines just disturbed me, because I always thought you need to have a rhyme on the last word.
When you realize that this video is 9:11 long 😳

DA DA DAAAAAA 😛
Damn, you got me
Thank you so much! You really helped me, I wanted to start writing and now i finally know how :)
Nice I like to always find new ways of making songs, I find putting limitations in the process can help! Like giving yourself restrictions to work within. Good video :)
The Miracle
Vs. 1
Cast your burdens at the cross for it's
Already done; The lonely nights you've
Had are gone; No more tears to cry;
He wipes your eyes; There is only
Joy to be found.
Ch.
The brokenness you've carried is the
Miracle you could not find; The road
You've been down shines the Father's
Glory; I know there are scares on
Your life, but the souls you will touch is worth it all.
Vs. 2
You only win a soul by holding on to
Hope; Everything that came your way
Made you rise up to take your place; Now
You are ready to fight for souls and bring them
To Christ.

Hey, this video popped up in my recommended and I thought I would give it a watch. I watched it and it made me want to write as soon as I finished. I started writing a song about how it feels to be in the closet but I haven't finished it yet. I'm gonna paste the lyrics below and I hope you tell me what you think. Please be honest! :) (btw it's kinda corny but I'm not very familiar with songwriting so I'm gonna have to make some changes)
I was scared and alone
Beginning to realize what I’ve become
He loves her, she loves him
Great for them, but I never win
I’m by myself under the table
Trying to hide from the names and labels
They always find me, taunt me, tease me
Don’t they realize this isn’t easy
I try my best to shut it out
When all i wanna do is scream and shout
No one knows, what I mean
All the pressure’s like a bad dream
I’ve been laughin’, I’ve been cryin’
But everybody knows, that I’ve been lyin’
I love your profile picture bc Lana is queen and these lyrics are amazing !!
awww thank you soooooo much!!!
+Lana Del Slay I really like it because I can relate to it
Keep it up you are amazing
can i sing this or do a cover of it
Oh my god of course!!!
Very good tips indeed.Thanks for sharing them.
This actually helped me a lot thanks Emma
Can you please post a video of you singing?
There's a bunch of videos on my channel - enjoy!
oops! didnt know xD

"As far as software goes, it's not the cheapest out there."
Me: *pirate software pirate software pirate software pirate software pirate software*
That's always an option I suppose. But pirated versions of Pro Tools, Cubase, FL Studio etc. do have their downsides for sure. I wouldn't expect any pirated copy to run to it's full potential.
Subscribed! Cuz your videos are amazing, you are my favorite youtuber!
Really great video, well thought out and produced with excellent content. Really helped both my wife and I (she's a writer and the tips really apply to her as well.) Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
That's so great to hear James - wishing you both the best with your writing :)

HOW IS THIS SONG I WROTE?
Its called I miss kissing Theo's smooth lip.
Verse One:
My beautiful, dead mother.
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
I wish I could go back to another.
Don't happen much anymore
Chorus:
I miss kissing Theo's smooth lip.
There's never a wish better than this
It makes me feel like I've done dip.
Never thought my heart could be so yearny
Verse Two:
I kissed a boy, where the tree stood tall.
Growin' up too fast and I do recall
I miss being able to have fun, and all.
Of the way we were
Chorus:
I miss kissing Theo's smooth lip.
There's never a wish better than this
It makes me feel like I've done dip.
Never thought my heart could be so yearny

Emma: Thank u for sharing the info on home recording. I'm trying to do more pre-production and not write in the studio. The Pro Tools n M-Audio r worth checking out. As far as songwriting, yr presentation was outstanding. I just released my first album and for those just starting out as songwriters, DON'T GIVE UP! Keep singing, writing and playing. YOU WILL BE HEARD!
+Italo Fortier Absolutely Italo! I couldn't agree more. Best of luck with your album! :) x
