The Ins and Outs of the Songwriting Industry: Gina Jeffreys and Rod McCormack #mmadaaa17
A prevalent
issue in songwriting by new writers, is the use of too many words, lyrics
rushed. #mmadaaa17
Write out
your fave song, and study the structure & rhyme scheme – try to emulate
that. #mmadaaa17
If your
song title asks a question – answer it in the song. Tell the full story. Stick
to the subject. #mmadaaa17
Take your fave song, look at the lyrics, think about the
meter–count syllables. Exercise: Write new lyrics based on the old song.

#Lyrics “To say much, in so little time, with so little
space… is really hard to do. So do it well.” – Rod McCormack #mmadaaa17
Lyric writing rules are always flexible. What works could
literally be reversed and still work. #mmadaaa17
“The number one secret to success: is kindness and helping
others. If you’re an assh-le that negative word will spread like wildfire…” #mmadaaa17
