Get your dog and a couple of your friends dogs, bring them into the studio and sing them a song.
If you can hold their attention you’re well on your way.
See, dogs don’t care about content.
Dogs don’t care about how long it took you to write the song or that you have trouble hitting some of the high notes.
Dogs just want to be captivated. They want to be entertained.
So do we.
***On another note…Since July I’ve been doing a special Sunday Night Email specifically for songwriters, producers and anyone who is interested in the latest happenings in the writer/producer world.
A world of truly hard, thankless, creative, inspiring, heartbreaking, rewarding work. .
The email gives some interesting info about the most popular songs of the week and has been helpful for writers and producers as they dive into their day-to-day work.
To my knowledge The Sunday Night Email has never been the thing that made anyone write a hit, but it has been the thing that made lots of people get unstuck.
