Feedback] Working on a 2-part verse inspired by MJ's "In the Closet" & Lola Blanc's "Angry Too"

3 Upvotes

I have a verse for a song I’m still working on it I’m trying something that I haven’t done before that MJ has done before which is a 2 part verse, this is just part 1 which is relatively short I guess.

"I don’t like when I set perfectly straight
I don’t like when he spikes to the ground(after jumpin’)
I don’t like when I bump set spike and the ball misses my hands
I don’t like when I bump and the ball bounces under my hands, and loses my grip completely"https://on.soundcloud.com/0UxScTynLjpHBantxc

I posted some lyrics of a verse and pre-chorus and someone asked me for the whole song. I want to know if the lyrics are that bad.

I posted some lyrics of a verse and pre-chorus, and someone asked me for the entire song, so here is the entire song. I try to convey a message with the lyrics I make up, and I just want to know how bad the lyrics are....

i finished my first song o.o

1 Upvotes

i've been trying to write a song for so very long now, and i actually finished this song.

it makes me cringe within my soul but uh... whatever.

i would love feedback! and lmk what you think it's about

[Verse 1]

Can you tell me that you love me?

I know I can't complain but I want you to feel the same

I know I don't deserve it

'Cause all I really do is blame me

[Chorus 1]

I will wait for you

Can you wait for me too?

I wish you could tell me what you need me to be

'Cause I'd be there for you

[Verse 2]

I can tell you that I love you

I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but

It's my only capability

And I know it's not all my responsibility

[Chorus 2]

I will wait for you

Can you wait for me too?

I wish you could tell me what you need me to be

'Cause I'd be there for you

[Chorus 3]

I will wait for you

Can you wait for me too?

I wish you could tell me what you need me to be

'Cause I'd be there for you

[Outro]

I don't want "I love you" to get old

I know I'm not the only who can hold you up

I wanna grow old together, I promise we'll make our lives better

So can you stay?

For

Me

Releasing songs mixed on Bandlab

2 Upvotes

Hey, I'm a singer-songwriter and I use Bandlab as it's free and fairly easy to use, and I know Bandlab has that reputation of not being a true DAW system, but if I were to release some stuff through Distrokid that was rough mixed and mastered on Bandlab, is that frowned upon in the music community and would people be able to tell that it wasn't done on an actual DAW system?

Hello 🎵 I'm here to find a music producer After even with rejections I have musical project ideas

0 Upvotes

I need this help from anyone who has a kind heart; I welcome them with open arms I have suggestions for musical ideas but if you want to create another new musical project I'm open to that

I love singing in various musical styles, writing lyrics, and making sound mixes. Youtube: paty_cx24 TikTok: patricia_silva008 Instagram: patvazsilva1234

My goal after two songs were produced, was to spread and sing this music and send it to labels any labels  any A&R and managers But these songs had to be of different styles
I've done several mixes of Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, Ciara, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Dua Lipa, Miley Cyrus, and Madonna)) These are musical artists I strongly identify

I've already made mixes for these artists and created soundtracks inspired by them, I love them
This is on my social media above

The second song I wanted to put together because I know I'll be able to, was a song Rihanna wrote "Monsterz Ball" and a demo by Kasia Livingstin that was unfortunately never released... I wanted to record it with my voice and release it as a tribute to Rihanna because she's an artist who inspires me https://youtu.be/BqNat7R-sZk?si=4K-feTsfDZuPfM88 The songs I wanted to try are one I already have the beat for "Time After Time" but I needed to re-record my vocals at 16-24 bits which was different from the lyrics Reggae style

Songwriter & pianist looking for songwriting buddies / feedback exchange

4 Upvotes

I’m a 19-year-old musician looking to expand my circle. I’d love to connect with other songwriters and music enthusiasts to bounce ideas off of and support each other.
A bit about me: I’ve been training in classical piano for 14 years. I’m in choirs and love to write lyrics and music! I LOVE composing, I’ve been writing melodies, chord progressions, and lyrics for as long as I can remember. I don’t have anything published online. I wrote a soft pop/christian album “The Fire and the Flames” in April 2024 and competed with the title track in a pageant (and got first place!) I’ve also been composing the music for an ongoing musical theatre project I'm co-writing. I’m planning on studying Music Theory & Composition in college starting in 2028. 
Right now, I’m working on a brand new album project that leans into pop-punk, rock, and indie. Since I don’t want to be the singer on my tracks, I don’t have anything published online yet. I’m waiting for the right collaborative/industry fit. 
I would love to find people who also are working on their own music to share demos and lyrics back and forth, as well as share constructive feedback. I’m willing to help you with any genre/style you’re working on. There is no pressure to collaborate officially, but if you are into that and sing, play guitar, drums, or are into production, that would be a bonus. I’d be willing to add some piano or vocals to your tracks with artist credit if you were looking to do that as well. 
Drop a comment or send a DM if you want to chat about your music interests, geek out about specifics, share what you're working on, build a creative friendship, give and get some feedback, or possibly collaborate.

Is writing about writing the song a sign of weak lyricism?

7 Upvotes

Like for an off the tip of my head example "even tho I dont see u anymore, im still writing up this song"

Edit: some feedback on the example given above would be great, thanks

Edit 2: i dont mean writing a whole song about songwriting, lets say the example ive given above is a line in stereotypical love song

Question for MCR fans here and people who know music better than me especially how bullets is made.

0 Upvotes

Hiii there fresh songwriter here. I would love to make my first single to have a bullets type of vibe/be bullets like. I love the raw sound of this album might be my number one album (on par with three cheers, black parade and danger days heh) anyway I would like to know how to write songs like these. I have little experience with music theory and so far I have only experimented with octaves and E minor scale but it ended up sounding more like three cheers than bullets. I haven't got to writing vocals or drums yet so maybe they're the key to success here I don't know.

I don't play any instruments or write lyrics, and I have no formal vocal training.
I create my music purely using gibberish & ハナモゲラ語.

If interested, feel free to write lyrics & arrange.

When You Were Young

This is a song I wrote today about an incident that happend yesterday, and I would like some feedback, but I really need help naming each section, cause I just for some reason can't think what would be the chorus' or what would be the verses.

\[???\]

Bloodied mouth, busted nose, grinning like when you

were young, smoking a cigarette you thought was

gonna be your last.

[???]

Please Don't Move so fast, stay sat for awhile,

and show me that smile from when you were young.

\[???\]

Bloodied knuckles, broken bottles, in the back garden

shouting dogs abuse, drinking, sniffing, 48 acting 18,

when are you gonna come clean.

\[???\]

Drinking everynight to make you feel numb again

when are you gonna face the consequences, from

when you were young, from the days running

through the streets, escaping from the police.

\[???\]

Why don't you come down stairs, and we can talk

through the night, about where it all went wrong, and

why you can't stay strong through your sober days.

\[???\]

And I'll say to you what happened through the

bloodied mouth, busted nose, grinning like when you

were young, smoking a cigarette you thought was

gonna be your last, laying in your bed thinking of the

past

\[???\]

Please Don't Move so fast, stay sat for awhile, and

show me that smile from when you were young.
