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...
Yet again I have a backing track with no matching lyrics - as far as I can make out at the moment. I recorded and edited the track sometime earlier this year and only rediscovered it recently when I was about to record the vocals for "lifelong pleasure". You know, I name my music tracks 2014-01, 2014-02 and so on. "lifelong pleasure" was 2014-02. When listening into 2014-01 I noticed that it was complete apart from the vocals. Now I'm looking for fitting words.
I've made notes as to how many lines of text I will need:
verses: 4 lines
lift: 3 lines
chorus: 6 lines
no bridge
There are two verses.
Had I anticipated my recurring 'problem' I would have created a database to index my own lyrics as for their parts (verse, lift, chorus, bridge), the numbers of lines per part, and their respective lengths*. That would have made searching for a matching text much easier. As things are, I'll probably write yet another text - that seems easier than going through all 360 I've already written...
* I am a databse professional. You would not have thought that it would take me 12 years to come up with that solution, would you?
