Andre S Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 WHEEE!!! My first original!!! Literally the basic structure was done in less than half hour. But its kinda simple, only like 6 or 7 chords, so I may change it or, I may leave it as is. But the guitar part is DONE!!! Too bad, I don't sing....I'll try to write vocals, and then start on a quest of finding a singer, and other instruments to fill the void... Its full strumming so far, similar to Wonderwall in terms of straight strumming throughought. Worked on with my Martin Om-1 28/09/09...Very proud first song, and I actually like it a lot, compared to the other stuff I fiddled with!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I wrote my first song about 3 months ago It was for a girl I liked, found out she was just leading me along :D Now I don't know whether to still go with it or not, sometimes it brings back hard memories....... I like it, but I have no idea what to do with it now Not trying to take away from your thread bro, Congrats man It is hard to write songs, keep it going And, don't write them about girls, trust me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverbursted Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I'm doing that now, just added the drum and bass parts using Garage Band. The best part about writing your own stuff is, you can't be wrong. If it sounds like doodoo, you can just say your taking your artistic freedom literally. Looking forward to hearing it.

Steven Tari Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Keep it simple and write what you know. I'm working on my second CD right now. It's not going to make me famous, But who care's, at least I can say I tried. Keep It up, It just might work out for you.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Fred61 dont ever dump a good song just because of the girl not working out just change the lyrics to the next girls name and recycle the sucker over and over. The song doesn't even mention her name, it is just kind've a sappy song and I don't know what to do with it, it just kinda brings up bad memories Haven't really touched it since then, I might have to play it a little and tweak it (the chord progression, not the lyrics) Thanks though I mean since that happened I haven't really written any songs so I will have to start again And I would have to agree, my chord progression is 5 chords, could be simpler, but keep up the good work man If I get a chance to I will have to record it and post it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it wasn't like that at all here are the lyrics if anyone wants to see them "Clearity"- the name is kind've ironic, because it is spelled wrong, thus being unclear if it makes sense (Verse) You're standing there, a silhouette your face is one I won't forget And from the darkness you emerge All my worries have been purged (Chorus) All at once, things start to change At this point, things can't be the same And right now, all I need Is a form of clarity As you walk towards me, I shake The feelings I have begin to awake Seeing you right in front of me Is the answer to my plea (Chorus) The uncertainty of what's going on Has brought upon this new dawn The only sure part of reality Is what is right in front of me All at once, things start to change At this point things can't be the same And right now, all I need Is a form of clarity I sense an end is coming near The truth is all I want to hear Yup pretty sappy and didn't even work out but it is the first song I wrote, so it means something to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
