Ever write a song?

    I found a few scribbles I'd written down a few years ago. I had a thing about everything having to rhyme and the tune came back to me when I was reading it.

    Must give it another go, I need a muse though.

    Any budding songwriters here? What do ye do?

    A long, long time ago.



    I can still remember how that music used to make me smile.

    Nearly 300 poems, but only one song. Should really try to write more with music.

    Yeah, years and years ago ( just after puberty :) ) I wrote down some songs and poetry. . They were rip offs of whatever I was listening to / reading at the time and in true teenage style told of my angst and dreams. Pure sh1te in other words as I can’t play an instrument ! Though I might start back at the poetry
    and writing.

    Yeah fine but do you have an attic?

    Wasn’t bad at coming up with a melody and a few chords but lyrics, not my forte let’s just say. My guitar playing mate although a seriously seriously good player not a lyrics guy either... had he got someone though who could write lyrics he’d be all squared away as a seriously notoriously good songwriter. The only person who won’t catch on to that is himself.

    I have.
    I'll probably look into a very basic recording set-up to make them, just for myself.
