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...
Another verse in the manner of the first two, yet two 'stories' squeezed into a single verse: a new motorbike that ran smooth and fast smashed its driver on a concrete wall some old nasty crook enjoys his old age made millions by means that appall
Post lesenI think I'd mentioned some time before that I would write a 'philosophical' text about the human condition. It looks like it will come out not too philosophical but rather typical - for me ;-) she was 22 consumed by lung cancer she'd never smoked a single...
Post lesenI wrote two choruses because I was not happy with my first version. My first version: the sun is out, the world is open to us [clumsy to sing, stress on the "to"] see new things, let us travel far and wide [-2 syllables/notes] why should we want to stay,...

Post lesenWhile I was working on my backing tracks - basically just assembling the different guitar parts - I wrote lyrics as well during a break. Quick ones, that I called "Fury on the warpath". By the way, I have the impression that my spontaneous lyrics are...
Post lesenNo, not really... Three backing tracks are in the making. 2014-05 (composition #5 this year) I completed yesterday, including a solo. It's the first time I play slide guitar - I had bought a slide (also called bottleneck) the other day - and open G tuning...
