Part II
Unleashing the Lyricist in You
In this part . . .
One of the first elements people notice when they hear a song are the words. Without effective words, also known as lyrics, it’s hard for someone to care about the music underneath the song. In this part, we look at the art of writing a catchy, yet meaningful, lyric. (Yes, the two can co-exist!) We examine some of the great songs of our time to see how lyrical devices helped these songs scale the charts and stay in people’s memory banks. Then we show you ways to develop your own lyrical power.
