Topic: Have you written any songs?

I always struggle writing my own material - I know its in there somewhere but unfortuantely I can never express it.

How many people have written their own songs and how did you go about it.

Please share any links to your own efforts

Re: Have you written any songs?

I'm not in a band at the moment but the previous bands I've been in I've found jamming in the studio we've came up with our best songs. Black Sabbath Paranoid springs to mind, they wrote that in a about 5 minutes jamming in the studio.

Re: Have you written any songs?

I write poetry which I have occasionally put to music. I've got a very streety folksy (read easy to play) sound though.. so not much interest to real players  lol

Put your songs on the your recordings thread, methinks.

I didn't get where I am today,
by being somewhere else.

let a third party ( rickyb ) have a go at your songs
you might be pleasantly supprised..and what have you got to loose
most people are hypocritical of their own stuff anyway...but if someone wants
to do them....go for it

I think thats an unfair comment. No song is ever thrown away.

Re: Have you written any songs?

any song thats shelved/discarded/abandoned/dumped etc needlessly
is thrown away/wasted....i cant think of any other way to put it
i think if anyone writes an 1/2 decent song it deserves all the attention it can get
and exploited in a positive manner by all interested parties
....you never know it might be a future no1..but not by...shelving/discarding/abandoning or dumping it...so best of luck with aluns song...i'll buy it

The song has never been dumped or wasted. I play it on a regular basis, when i am playing songs to myself. I enjoy it and identify with it. Alan has published it on this forum, so that is an end of it. I respect Aluns wish not to put it on here, and he has replied by doing it himself.
I know i chose to publish some song and not others, because they are to personal to myself. But they are never wasted as long as i keep playing them. default/big_smile
