Noodles

The electric guitar was noodled upon today. I worked out two new song ideas on my laptop and decided that even though I was grossly rusty and have no calluses at all on my finger tips, I put rhythm guitar tracks onto both songs. Four tracks on one song and two on the other.

My playing was absolute garbage but I enjoyed every second of it. Well… not counting the burning agony in the tips of the fingers on my left hand. That’s a kick in the nards, but other than that… Fun.

Random thought for the day: Are you listening to the music, or are you actually listening to the words? 🎧✍️

I find myself paying way more attention to the lyrics than the actual beat. To me, lyrics carry the raw emotion, stories, and deep meanings almost like poetry or hymns set to a melody. A great beat is nice, but words speak directly to the mind and heart.

What about you? Do you need a great beat to enjoy a song, or do the lyrics make or break it for you? Let me know your favorite lyrical lines!

You know what I think is bullshit #songwriting advice? "Don't be preachy."

Not only is it bullshit (there are plenty of great songs that preach), it's vapid. Subjective. It's a thought-stopping cliche. It's about as useful advice as "be original"—except no, it's worse. It deters passionate songwriters from writing in support of causes they care about, and at the end of the day, it serves the status quo.

You may not want to alienate your audience, sure. But that doesn't mean you can't preach.

Just went to a #songwriting workshop with Felly the Voice. It was awesome. I learned so much and made some great connections in the local songwriting community. #music
