Making Music

You know, I have always been a listener of music.  I have listened to it the originals  people's remixes of the originals  and even the acoustic/piano versions. I have learned songs on the guitar and bass, and even some drums.  I have sang in a band, and but i have never actually written any music for myself.  It turns out being able to play music isn't always the hard part, in fact some of the hardest parts are making the chords go from one part to the next and making the lyrics match and resonate from chorus to the bridge and such. So i decided to go to the task of writing a song myself.

I tried writing by listening to some of my favorite music first. Meanings meanings, there's love and hate which are extremely common among songs.  Then there are songs that are stories but it seems to me all songs that are stories are country songs and I cant do that. Songs about religion, life lessons, even songs to just be funny... nothing clicked so I decided to start with making the music and then writing lyrics. After about twenty minutes of plugging in music I concocted a rhythm containing four or five chords for the main, and a couple different cords for the chorus. But honestly, I never got to lyrics, its a lot tougher then I thought.  I guess Ill leave it to the pros to write and make great music and for them I give props.
