Music Diary Entry: I have perfected the art of songwriting

Hey everyone! So today, I wanted to share with you all a little something that happened today. 

Let’s get into it.

I wrote a song in front of my friends today

You guys know me and you know that I play guitar and sing?

And what I did today was that I wrote a song in front of my friends to just really mess around and try and do something while I’m with them. 

I was hanging out with them today and I just picked up my acoustic guitar and started writing a song in front of them. 

And I knew I had started strong when one of my friends looked at me and said in a very astonished voice, “Did you get those lyrics from chat gpt?” 

And I said no. 

But the thing was that he was really feeling the song and I know that’s the reason why he asked about that. 

And so I kept going in the song. 

I kept writing and I got up to the chorus and then I started the second verse and then I did a small recap of the parts that I had done while performing it. 

And my friends were llke, “it sounds a little off but you’re getting there.”

And so I finished the song and I got so many positive comments on that song that I wrote. 

There were a group of like 8 friends in the room and they were sincerely asking me if I had gotten that from someone famous?

They also asked me questions like what are you going to name that song? 

And they said it sounded really good. 

Now let me give you songwriters some advice on how to find out if your song is actually good or not.

When you show someone your song, and you ask for their opinion, do not take their word for it because a lot of friends are really nice and want to encourage you to keep going. So what they will do is they will lie to you and tell you it’s nice when in reality they did not like it. 

And if you were to show a hater the song, then they will lie to you and tell you it sounds horrible when in reality it sounds really good. 

But what you have to do is pay attention to their body language, you have to pay attention to their comments that they say, you have to see the way that they react. 

Because if you were to show someone a song and they exclaim with a loud voice that it’s the best song that they have ever heard and are talking about your song back and forth all the time, then you know that your song is good. 

If you are showing someone a song and they say, “This song just gave me goosebumps” then you know that you have done something good. 

There is something in the music world where you are supposed to give someone goosebumps when you make a song. 

It’s a positive sign that you are doing a good job as a songwriter. 

So yeah, I think I did good today. 

The song that I made was not a Christian song, but rather, it was a song just to mess around. And they liked it. I could tell not from their words, but their reaction.
