#304 - 06/22/09 05:14 PM Your own stuff
candit newbie Registered: 05/15/09 Posts: 30 Loc: Currently sitting in a chair	I used to write short stories and the such but I am sure writing music is a different thing. Do we have anyone here that writes their own stuff, are you writing the notes or the lyrics or both? I can always think of a good story behind a song, but I just can not get the tune right. I guess I am not that type of writer. _________________________ I wanted some cookies, so yes, it was me, in the kitchen with my hand in the cookie jar. I have been caught. cry

poptart newbie Registered: 05/24/09 Posts: 26	Writing songs is so fun- if you are a writer of prose then you should try to write the lyric and see what tune comes to you. You could also start with an existing tune and write lyrics to that, then change the melody you used into something new and different. I like to write both the lyrics and the music- it's like writing the songs you wish were on the radio!

And write music that you can put some lyrics to! It's been done all across history. Kander and Ebb is another big pairing. George and Ira Gershwin. _________________________ I love science, and it pains me to think that so many are terrified of the subject or feel that choosing it means you cannot also choose compassion, or the arts, or be awed by nature.
