Lyrics are to samey
 

Idoes anyone get that horrible feeling when they read lyrics that all have 'woke up one morning' as the first line, and other commen crappy lines? i hate it!

I have to revise mine several times before I'm happy but I've never used something like that...


thank god

This is a shameless plug but if you want lyrics that are original I think mine go some way to breaking the boundry: http://www.musicbanter.com/showthread.php?t=6958

^ haha shameless,
I agree when i read clichéd lyrics like that i feel like cringing.

You can'y blame a guy for trying! It is up to people like us to write new lyrics that get noticed then... It's a sign!

Oh, just in case you thought I was saying your lyrics were clichéd,I wasn't! But i think if you want to take things that people write lyrics mostly about, like love, but write in a very different way and refine the language and just play around with words and images.

The key is: originality!

*clap*

oh you be speaking of them ole' days son, now it's just re-use and recycle......

Yes - but the trick now is to arrange the old bits into new and nver before seen orders ;)

good tip for all you budding mainstream pop artists

i'm already claustrophobic, being constantly surrounded by all these suckey artists, if you can't beat them, help them(i have too much of the right kind of dignity to join them)!

Are you kidding - pop stars dont write their own lyrics! A bald guy in a suit in a big building writes em!!! While smoking money!

Oh god, of course, the second tip, your good at this!!!

Well I recently got into the game of giving tips! Comes from original ordering of clichés ;)

heh "woke up one morning" is the first line in 'steppin out'- john lennon

woke up this morning is also the start of near enough every song ever written in texas by cowboys........that and the fabulas line 'my fat baby'....
