Why does a painter brush the canvas? Why does a writer type out 1000 words a day? Songwriting is the same. Cuts, likes, plays or not.

When it comes to melodies, keep it simple and focus on rhythm. Some of the catchiest melodies use shorter notes, narrow vocal range, and repeated rhythms... "We Will Rock You"/"Single Ladies"/"Shape of You" #songwritingtips #songwritin

Want ur chorus to feel emotionally explosive? Try this: 1. Start chorus a 3rd above the highest verse/pre-chorus note 2. Make chorus peak a 4th or 5th higher than anything before 3. Create a 4-6 step leap between pre-chorus end and chorus start #songwritingtips #songwriting

The goal isn’t to sound like your favorite singer. Listen to them, then tune into the physical sensations they evoke—resonance, breath, emotion. Feel over sound. Inspiration, not imitation.

Song titles are important because they can create intrigue and curiosity. If someone’s looking at a list of your titles, and that’s all they have to go on, a well written title can make them want to hear your song. “She Said That?” will get played before “You're the Greatest.”

When it comes to turning lyrics into a melody, find the rhythm in your words. Speak your lyrics out loud with emotion. There will be a basic melody there already. Then chunk the lyrics into rhythmic motifs and decide on a repetition pattern for those motifs. #songwritingtips

🎼Struggling to write a melody? Don’t stress about the whole song. Start small... just create one tiny motif. Repeat it and tweak it for a section. Keep going, and soon, you’ll have a full melody! 🎶 #SongwritingTips

The first line of a song isn't “just an opener”, It’s a device for emotional priming. Think of it like a joke, The setup (first line) directs our attention. The chorus delivers the emotional punchline. #songwritingtips

Want to write lyrics that everyone connects with? Find the universal feeling in your story. Ask yourself, what’s the shared experience everyone goes through? Like, feeling lost or chasing a dream? Build your whole song around expressing that single emotion. #songwritingtips
