How to Start Writing a Song

I would like to greet my fellow musicians and song writers out there. Keep on writing great songs. Good luck.

I am you are finding a good answer to your question that has something to do with song writing that is why you got here to my blog. when I were like you a year ago, I also made a some research on the internet and other books about song writing, how to write song and etc. First and foremost I want to share you my experience when I am seeking some knowledge about song writing because really love to sing. In fact, I have a garage band and I we mostly play my own compositions, although we are not that published yet, we really do play good composition based on the comments of our few listeners. At first, when still don't know and I don't have any idea when and how am I going to start to write. I don't write musical notes but I read, just like the other song writers who are called guitar based song writers nowadays. That is the way how I write songs. I play a certain key stroke on my acoustic guitar and lyrics and tunes will automatically come out of my head. Before I had able to get into this point, I actually gone to a long and winding search for what is you are also looking for right now. Gladly I have found the answer and that is what I am going to share you to the down part of this post. For now, here is my experience on searching for the right way to write a song. I can tell that I already write a songs but it's still weak in my own opinion so I researched for the right way to do it so I consulted to the experts in this field. I used Google to find them because I believe it's the fastest tool for researching. I came to a good site that taught me some things about what I am looking for. All I have read on that site was already the things that I am doing when writing, it only added up some knowledge to me but it was a good help to me. After I going a lot of websites about this topic, I found out that they have the same teachings and all are falling to one way and they are telling that it was the most effective way to write songs. It is to write songs coming from your heart. You can do that thing only if you love what you are doing but you just want to impress someone or to get the attention of somebody and you are doing it for just that and you do it without love, you are just building your own waste. So if you find your has no love for writing song you better stop on searching at this point because you won't be able to do it since the love for it is the most essential part when you want to write song. I don't want to waste your time and effort just to get to the point that you'll just stop in spite of all the things that you hardly do. Now, if you find yourself interested and love to do this, well it's high time for you to start now.
Maybe your next question will be "do I need to learn to write music notes before I write song?" Don't lose hope if you don't know how to write music because it is not necessary to write your song with notes. Just like what I said, I don't write musical notes, I only read. So it goes without saying that it is possible to write song even though you don't know how to write music. To strengthen this thing that I'm conveying towards you, I want you to view this youtube video of the draft of my own song composition( click here to view my composition, this is originally written by me.) Don't forget to leave comment OK? hehe. Now, Moving on, the next question you will probably ask is "where can I get ideas to write song"? Well, the resources of ideas or the available topics for your song is just going around you. I mean, you can write from anything you can see around you. I guess you do hear songs about going to school, breaking up of lovers, making love and etc. Those are just a piece of a huge cake. You can write out of anything you see or you feel. Now you will probably ask "how will I start"? You can start by writing down what you actually see and eventually it will become a start lines or maybe just a part of you original song composition. Just keep on practicing until you master it.
