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...
Two verses for Flamur's (the Albanian's) song (see: si e marr po me dukesh... ): try to look me in the eye - eye to eye while you give me a reason why - reason why you have turned away from me, hurting me you have turned away don't let me fade like memories...
Post lesensometimes like the sporadic bubble that rises from a moor lake, sometimes like sparkling water... Basically, there was just one single line that kept popping up in my mind: seize your life seize your life seize your life today (I love that "today"!) Meanwhile,...
Post lesenDon't ask me what that means. I have no idea. I have a few notes in German and English, though, that kind of give me the general idea. The song called "Kush" (who) is Albanian. I am supposed to create matching English lyrics for it. This is the original...
Post lesenI had got it wrong. Holger's - MotorPlanet's - Rock song goes "verse verse chorus chorus bridge [solo] chorus chorus". I simply hadn't remembered correctly. The chorus is - or the choruses are - rather short, the bridge - if you could call it that - is...

Post lesenAfter a phase of co-writing ("Spanish girl" and "anywhere you want") it's about time to write some more original stuff again. Here is my suggestion for a contemporary song with a fifties Rock'n Roll feeling to it. It's called "time warp whirl". Should...
Post lesenNamely mine aren't. I'm dealing lyrics like a prostitute deals her favors: everybody can use them. The difference is that I don't get paid. I originally wrote "I believe (in our love)" to match a tune by Markus: original lyrics That was in 2009. In 2011...
