Focus more on the writing
Don’t try too hard to make it easy
Go with what you think is good
Don’t wait for a spark
Most people naturally want to either over complicate or over simplify…dig in there
You might not need a new chorus, maybe just a new chord right before the chorus
You might need a better chorus
Don’t hold the rhythm and melody too tightly in the verses
If you write a song so good that you make one solid, clear, emotionally connecting point, you’ve won. Don’t try to make more than one point.
Your voice is the portal of connection
Fun to sing doesn’t necessarily equate to fun for others to listen to
If you believe in it maybe they will too
Your belief is a gift to you and to them.
