This week on my Genius hour project I changed things up. I haven’t been able to get done what I planned which was to learn four songs. So I went to my guitar teacher for advice on what I should do about it. He gave me the great idea to write my very own song. It will be complete with all the chords and it will have lyrics. I just felt like I needed a change of pace since I wasn’t really learning the songs that well and not hitting the deadlines I set for myself. So I have been listening to a variety of songs and trying to figure out what stuff sounds good and how to combine it together. I’m not sure how I’m going to start writing my song, but I know I can do it. I have been looking up ideas on google and asking people I know that have written a song before. I feel like by doing this instead I can open up more opportunities to my musical talent.
This past Monday I worked with my guitar teacher to help me come up with the song. We went over a chord patterns to find a few that I like. With the song I might go with a slow jam or something like that. I really like the idea of writing to, since it lets you create a new thing and bring it into the world. I hope my song will be enjoyed by everyone. This Wednesday I looked even deeper into songwriting. I looked up and listened to all sorts of different songs so I can discover more of what I like. Being able to work like that and playing along with the lyrics helped me understand the song itself. I also looked up videos about people talking on how they mead a song and how they made it. This is what i’m going to have to discover and quickly.
