Now that you've learned a bunch of new songwriting tips in this section it's time to take a look at 1
your song and see if you can tweak it - see if you can improve it in any way. 2
If you love it the way it is that's awesome. 3
That's great. 4
If you think it could use some improvement take some of the tips you learned this week and see if you 5
can make it better. 6
Also I've got a challenge for you. 7
Write another song, and then another song, and then another song. 8
That's how you get good. 9
All great songwriters got good because they just kept writing and writing and writing. 10
Even the best songwriters on the planet don't write an amazing song every time - we talked about that 11
at the beginning of the course. 12
The more you write the better chance you're going to come up with some really great stuff. 13
And another challenge I have for you... try writing a song a week... that might sound like a ton of work but 14
I promise you once you get into the groove of writing it's not that much work. 15
It just makes you better. 16
And finally experiment with your writing process. As you know in this course my process was: start with 17
a chord progression, then use your scales to find a cool melody for your vocal line. 18
Then write your lyrics, then put your song together... but there is no right or wrong answer... 19
you know... how to write a song. 20
Find your own process and then experiment with other processes to help you get out of writer's blocks. 21
Some songwriters start with the lyrics... others start with just a melody running around in their head... 22
Some like to just kind of noodle around on their guitar or their piano until they find like even a three 23
note riff that sounds pretty cool. 24
It's all about finding that spark. 25
Finding that seed that becomes the catalyst that creates this amazing song. 26
Great. 27
Thanks so much for listening as always... stick around.... 28
The next section I got a couple more things I really want to talk to you about.
