14. Play each song to your friends in its most simple form, melody/lyrics/chords, before progressing. - If they don't give you an adamant thumbs up and tell you that this song could make you famous or something to that effect, the song is probably rubbish. Ask them which bits they like and which they don't, so you can identify what makes the song good and what makes it boring.
15. Please use some dynamic variation at some point. - Particularly in loud songs, put some quiet bits in and some parts that are more moderate on the volume front.
16. If you find yourself writing a song which sounds like it would fit over a sickening, life-affirming cafe scene in Smallville, or the OC or some other **** like that then stop and think about where you life has gone wrong and what you can do to stop being such an asshat.
