I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
Probably it was recording "chew me up" this morning that inspired me to write more 'weird' sex stuff. Fun stuff, actually, that I couldn't possibly post and discuss on the songwriting forums from the 'Bible Belt'. They had already deleted "Sabrina". Well,...
Post lesenI told you about my scrap book that's actually a text file on the computer. It's where I put down my ideas that eventually may or may not become the spark for new song lyrics. After pillaging the scrap book for a while it's time to add new 'scraps' or...
Post lesenI think I've brought order into my lyrics. The first two verses now focus on 'my' lust, namely on oral sex, the second part focuses on my submission to 'her' lust. That should make sense - in a sense ;-)
Post lesenI'm not happy with its lyrics. There's no logic in them, and particular lines sound clumsy with cumbersome rhymes. Therefore, I'm shifting, replacing, and swapping lines of text. Since I won't sing the song before friday I've got plenty of time.
Post lesenI mentioned a song with no title the other day. Well, it has got a title now. While foraging my scrap 'book' I came across "chew me up" that provided me with a chorus. I added four verses and a bridge, and there we are! It's become explicit, I'm afraid...
Post lesenI wrote "don't take me for granted" on behalf of the other Bernd, but his client rejected it. The lyrics were meant for femal vocals and for Country music (my first Country-style lyrics, maybe they were not enough Country). The other titles are rather...
Post lesenDid you ever observe that you tend to make the same error again and again after you somehow got through the first time? Over years I always took the wrong turn on a particular hiking trail in my vicinity. I would get doubts at the turn, remembering that...
Post lesenI edited the second verse to reduce the number of repeated 'you know - I knows', and also make the verse more similar to verse one: you know I wasn't true to you it's true that others shared my bed I know what you had to go through so you had rather I'd...
Post lesenThree verses plus a chorus plus a bridge should make complete song lyrics, right? Here's the verses that I've written: Verse 1: so your guy's walked out on you you feel unloved and deserted nothing much that you can do you are lost and disconcerted [I...
Post lesenWhen I woke up this morning the lyrics were there in my mind - maybe the leftovers of an unpleasant dream? There's just the chorus at the moment, but it's quite obvious what the verses will have to tell: serves you right to feel what you made me feel...
