Question: Need help with song writing?
(Posted by: on 2010-01-30 18:32:44)
I'm in a band, and we have only made covers of songs so far. I'm the singer, and am kind of stuck with writing the songs. Without original songs we can't do anything but small gigs, and are stuck as to how far we can go with our band. The only problem is... I have no idea what i'm doing when i write a song. I've got lyrics and stuff. But i don't know how to do the melody, instruments, or turn the lyrics into an actual song. I write alot of poetry, and my lyrics are pretty much four poems put together, one acting as the chorus. It's really bad. So, what i need is either someone who knows how to write songs and could help me, some PLACE that could help me, and aren't there people out there who get paid to actually write songs as well? Oh my dear, i have no idea. I am so lost. Tell me anything and everything you can that you think could help me please.... Am open to anything. Thank you... Oh yeah, and if it means anything we're a rock/ punk/ alternative/ screamo band thing. Yeah, i get it pretty diverse. |
