Instructions for song writing
Song writing is very personal for some and a hobby for others. Be it anyway songwriting is a very interesting thing to do everyday as a songwriter and singer. There is a lot to explore and conceptualise.
So let’s quickly get into the Essence of songwriting.
1. Pick a theme or a recent event that has occurred in your life.
2. Give it a name based on the feeling that you associate it with.
3. Now it’s very important to a plot a story for the song. It needs to have a definite start and definite end.
4. Begin the story with a very vague Description of the feeling that you are going through or the main character of the song is going through.
5. Basically the first verse of the song will be about a general introduction of the plot.
6. Pre-chorus of the song will touch upon the overall message of the song in a very short sentence.
7. Pre chorus of the song does play an important role in a song but is optional sometimes.

Next comes the most important part of the song which is the chorus. Chorus of the song sets the audience to move in the direction as expected.
9. Chorus of a song is also called a hook of the song.
10. Chorus should always be a very easy flow to sing along.
11. Make sure that the next part is more deep about the character and mention details about the situation that the character.
12. There is always room for some improvising the words.
13. Use a thesaurus and a dictionary to write the song.
14. insert an interesting portion of lyrics that you can be very creative with and make it as the bridge.
15. bridge acts as a very good twist in your song and adds more flavour to the entire experience of listening to your song.
16. End the song with a chorus and some beautiful harmonies of the same lyric.
Outro of the song is a beautiful way to hold the vibe of the song even after the song ends
on the whole, song writing can have different structures and can be simpler than the one that I have defined. Choose that makes you feel good about it. 487
