LINKS Link: How to Write a song when you are a beginner

I like to pay attention to the Google search terms that bring people to this site. Because I write a lot about creative inspiration and songwriting, one of the common themes in the terms that Google associates with this blog is the idea of how to write a song if you’re a beginner. I see a lot of search phrases in my web stats that look something like this:

How to write your first song
How do you get started writing music
How can you write a song if you can’t play music
How can you write a song if you’ve never done it

When I was surfing through some music sites recently, I came across an article called “How To Write A Song When You Are A Beginner”.

Here’s a little piece of the article:

For many learning how to write song is not so much the issue. However, learning how to find the problems in the songs they do write, is a valuable tool. To start with, new songwriters should just write lots of songs. The best goal is to write 100 songs. Sometimes beginning songwriters need to write a lot of songs to find what isn’t working and figure out how to get them working better. And this is often difficult to do on your own, which is why looking to outside sources can be most helpful.

I’ll be honest, I’ve been writing songs for so long that it’s hard for me to think in those terms. However, it looks like this article came from a blog that is specifically about getting started writing songs. If you are a beginner who is interested in getting started, you might want to search through the rest of the articles on that blog. You might find something very useful.

But of course, keep coming back to this one, too.

Welcome To Creative-Music.org
Welcome! This blog is not really intended to give you step by step instructions on how to do some kind of creative music project (since it seems like that maybe defeats the purpose of wanting to be creative!) Instead, I hope to inspire you with ideas, examples, and exercises meant to get you thinking more creatively about how you write or perform your music.

AND IF YOU'RE NOT A MUSICIAN...
You still might appreciate some of the things we'll be talking about. The ideas are going to focus on music because I love music, but if you're creative enough, you can apply a lot of the basics to whatever art you may be into. So stick around!
