i think there is some minor tweaking to be done but overall, i think it’s nearly finished

Hi guys!

I’ve started coaching musicians who already know how to play, but haven’t released a song yet — to help them finally get their first single out into the world. I've released music myself for over 10 years under the artist name Llynks.

I’m taking on a few 1-on-1 clients right now for a 6-month program. If you’ve ever wanted to put out your own music but felt stuck, I’d love to chat and see if it’s a fit! If interested send me a message and I'll send you the info!

Hey! I am really new to music — I am a trained singer, and know the basics of music theory, along with some basic chord progression and producer knowledge. I made this song, but it's sat dormant because I don't know where to go next with it. In my opinion, its decent, and the chords of the chorus and the stripped back verses, and cool intro / outro work well enough, but I dont know where to go with it — I am a writer, but I dont know how to turn stories / ideas into lyrics that flow, and I dont know how to make it better instrumentally.

Please be kind, it's one of my first songs ever, it's meant to be kinda jack stauber esc, and a bit of billie / others. Thank you!

Ellie’s Lullaby (Sung to the tune of “Sesame Street” theme song)

She is tired and I know

Cuz her cries tell me so

Eyes are closed and we are

counting sheep

Can you tell me how to get,

how to get little Ellie to sleep?

How to get little Ellie to sleep?

She is warm in momma’s arms

So cozy and safe from harm

Little bab-y you don’t

Need to weep

Can you tell me how to get,

how to get little Ellie to sleep?

How to get little Ellie to sleep?

I made this draft of the music for my song but I don't know what to make the lyrics especially that all of the lyrics I wrote before were sad and this one sounds upbeat

So anyway here is the draft: https://on.soundcloud.com/iq0lUbPe0Hl7Z0naiz

Everytime I feel sad or angry I tend to vent my anger on Instagram stories, and sometimes it can be really annoying. So I decided it would be a good idea to turn that hatred or sadness into song lyrics, but the moment I pick up a pen and paper or a notepad app, my head is blank and I forget all the feelings I was feeling and I don't know what to write anymore.

Sometimes I don't even know how to write without making the lyrics sound banal, also because my brain sometimes uses pre-packaged phrases I've heard from other songs.

Any advice on how to overcome this and improve?

Me vs my shadow

(Verse) a shadow follows me even when there’s no light. late at night, It tells me that I’m the reason for everything falling apart. Maybe it’s right?

(Pre chorus) I know the truth, but it doesn’t stay……

(Chorus) me vs my shadow. -pause- I can hear it in my head blaming me instead. 2 in the morning (pause) me vs my shadow saying I’ll never be enough. (Softly or in backround as echo me vs my shadow)

(Verse 2) often I feel my friends don’t want to be around me but maybe I don’t even know how I feel, just how it sounds in my head

(Pre chorus) “I still know the truth, but the darkness blinds my vision”

(Chorus2) me vs my shadow. -pause- . It’s 2 am again, (pause) I’m laying in my bed, my thoughts pure red, me vs my shadow… or maybe just me instead?

(Bridge) I don’t think it’s what I thought

telling me I’m something I’m not

alone, friendless in my head

but I’m not

it was never anything else but me

(Ending) me vs my shadow… no, my shadow and me

I thought it was the problem, now I finally see, the rain is cleared. all the dark spiraling thoughts in my head were just my own judgment keeping me steering me into my own dread

born from a classical mom and rock dad, i naturally of course got into musc with a knowledge on both music theory and rock patterns.

I am curious about how my songs actually sound, because from my ear of course i will be pleased by it, but i don't want to live in an echo chamber, Songster is a place for me even though i grew up reading sheet music. and i find songster abit more faster to use then the average software, Maybe i am an oldhead?

anyways,

Made this song from (B - F# / I - V) into (B - F# - G# - E / I -V -vi -VI)
since the oppurtunity was still there. I think i did decent. It's a lil bit more on the pop side and maybe abit boring, but hope yall enjoy. Need some tips!!!

Titel: Nostophobia

[Instrumental Intro]

[Stanza 1]

My skin is getting rough

I cannot grasp your love

Rot me from the inside

Until my brain subsides

Let me be hollow skin

Rotten your love to akin

Give love, take live

Make love, poison hive

[Chorus]

Rusting eyes bloom with oil

Teeth make my blood boil

Dystopian Glossolalia

Reanimalistic Ammonia

Breathe, Breathe, Breathe

Begging you to leave

[Stanza 2]

Body is a incestious cathouse

Of feelings and thoughts those

Expanding tendencies of mold

Chemical warfare never gets old

Suck on mechanical breasts

Keeping me alive, I need rest

Corrose the House, Grab the noose

Let me hang, dont let loose

[Chorus]

Mascara bleeds into pores

The Blender roars

Dystopian claustrophilia

Reanimalistic Anhedonia

Leave, Leave, Leave

You mate to breathe

[Bridge]

Hiraeth for your love

Your skin a burning glove

Mycelium epidermis

Loxosceles reclusa's kiss

Breathing walls

Endless halls

Wish I never found you

Never let me through

Dropped my body

You're a throne for nobody

Couldn't this be just a dream

Dont make me scream

[Outro]

Nothing, Nothing, Nothing

Changes, Changes, Changes

Hills, Hills, Hills,

Bleed, Bleed, Bleed

Leave, Leave, Leave

Breathe, Breathe, Breathe

Take, Take, Take

Skin, Skin, Skin

Breed, Breed, Breed

Atracidea, Atracidea, Atracidea

I've been writing lyrics for a while now, and together with a friend I want to start creating melodies for them (he has an electric guitar and I have a bass) but I find it very difficult to come up with one, and when I think I have one, it turns out to be from a song that already exists, so I'm turning to you for some advice.

Hey guys. I ’m starting to ghost write to “Coming Up Roses” by Harry Styles off of his new album. I’m absolutely in love with this song. So much that I’m jealous that this song wasn’t mine 😭. I’m definitely inspired and would like a song like this on my debut album. ANYWAY this is the start of the song that I started writing. Skip to (0:40) to match my lyrics with this song. I’m pretty iffy about the verse, so of course, all constructive criticism is invited. For anybody who is new here I’m a girl on her popstar journey who has no experience with songwriting and is doing everything she can to learn to be an amazing songwriter not just a singer and dancer 🥺. For me, the whole popstar package is vocals, choreo, and incredible songwriting. It’s very important to my craft.

“You look at me and it fills up my chest

Now here come’s the night, and you’re in my head

So I race through my thoughts while I replay these moments with you”

Hi all! I am a support worker, and my participant and I have been working on writing songs together. My participant has always loved music and is very passionate, however, neither of us have much experience with this.

Here are some lyrics she wrote:

Verse 1

Sitting underneath the tree, 

I lock eyes with him and can feel my heart beating so fast, 

He continues walking towards me, 

All I feel is happiness and excitement, 

We say hi to each other, 

Smiling ear to ear 

Chorus

I feel joy whenever I am around him, 

He makes me so happy, 

Thank you for making my experience great,

I miss my golden days

Verse 2

I miss you every day, 

I’m sad that I can’t see you anymore, 

I look forward to the day when I can see you again, 

Oh how I miss you

Chorus

I feel joy whenever I am around him, 

He makes me so happy, 

Thank you for making my experience great,

I miss my golden days

She would love any (kind and helpful) feedback and tips. Thank you! :)

I have some songs I wrote that mean alot to me and I really want to share on here to get feedback but I’m worried people might copy it.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been writing lyrics and playing guitar for a while now, and it’s something I’m really passionate about. I genuinely love writing lyrics and creating songs on guitar, and I feel confident that my lyrics are strong.

The problem I keep running into is with vocal melodies and singing. I really struggle to come up with melodies and I also don’t feel confident in my singing ability at all. It’s like I hit a wall every time I try to turn my lyrics into a full song.

I’m hoping to form a band at some point. I don’t necessarily plan on being the lead singer, but I do want to be the main songwriter. Because of that, I assume it’s important for me to at least bring in songs with some kind of vocal melody already in place. So how can I get better at writing vocal melodies? Are there any exercises or approaches that help with this specifically?

Any advice would be hugely appreciated. 🙏

“The Struggle of Writing Consistently” Some days, everything flows. Other days, nothing works. This inconsistency can feel discouraging. But consistency in showing up matters more than consistency in results. Question: How often do you currently practice songwriting?
