I mean, honestly.....don't you think that there are enough songs about these said topics?

I do.

Lets try and think outside of the box a little bit people.

Words and phrases to stay away from:

-Baby
-Love
-Dance
-Goodbye
-Break my heart
-I miss you


Unless you are trying to be typical, bland, and lacking, stay away from this kinda stuff.

i have to agree... there are way too many break up songs out there

I somewhat agree with you, but the problem usually isnt the topic, it's poor execution.

That may be true, but look at The Spill Canvas for instance....decent execution, terrible topics.

Hehe, I don't listen to them, but I see your point.

I'm not even saying that all songs about "girls" are bad....I just think that there are better things to write about.

Like Chris Martin said, even when you're trying to write a song about the worlds major problems, you always get back to writing about girls.

Yeah....but I'm pretty much the only person around who can't stand coldplay.

So I'll throw away anything he ever says.

Are you a big coldplay fan Andy?

Im a big fan of their first two albums. Third one was horrible. They sold out in every sense of the word.

I was okay with some of there early stuff...

I still remember the first time I heard "Yellow."

Their first album was huge here in Norway, so when the world caught on two albums later, we collectively went 'o rly?'

hahahaha

Yeah they really found their place here....I've never bought an album.

Now they're every middle-aged single mother's favorite band.

I agree.

But I also agree with Chris Martin in a way...

Half my pieces aren't about girls, but you could think they are.

i agree with the words to stay away from. to me it seems like only a hand full of bands write good lyrics these days, which is sad. more bands need to go away from generic lyrics and be more creative.

i also enjoy coldplay *ducks* haha

I use the word baby, but I rarely write about girls. I've written around 2-3 songs about that topic.

You obviously haven't been writing very long...

Or else you're gay.

Either way, it's all good baby :wink:

4 years, James.

Well, all my songs used to be about girls, but not many of the songs I've posted, which is what I meant. Only 2 of my AP posted songs have been about girls, compared to the fifty (no joke) I wrote in my pre-AP period. I've written 3 songs since my last... gonna post them after my test.

Exactly...

So you weren't counting the whole time.

:wink:

I haven't written 50 about girls and I've probably got 100 pieces at least, writing maybe 3 years. (I didn't use to churn out pieces like I do now, though they're equally as shitty as some of my recent stuff... :()

lol. slade giving poetry tips.


i think writing about girls is cool if you can do it originally and it's real. but if it's just like everyone else doing it it gets redundant

I used to churn out and they all sucked. But now I take my time and edit them and read them over and over.
