Songwriting is a skill that can be learned by anyone. In my 25 years of teaching, 100% of my students who wanted to write songs, did learn to write songs. Most of them were complete beginners who had never even written part of a song. They simply studied the information in this book, did the recommended exercises, and within months were writing songs. If you have no idea how to write songs right now, don't worry. It's easier than you think. You don't need to read music or play an instrument. All you need to get started is the ability to hum a melody. You will also need a phone or tablet with a recording app. Many hit songs are written with nothing more than a recording app on cell phone. Pretty simple! The good news is you don't need to read and write music in order to be a great songwriter. Check out these songwriters who never learned to read music: Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Taylor Swift, Eric Clapton, the Beatles, Eddie Van Halen, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Slash, Stevie Wonder, and Lionel Richie. They didn't learn to read music because it was never necessary. It's not necessary for you either. I started off just like you. I had a desire to write songs but had never written one. My first few songs were pretty raw, and I would be embarrassed to have you hear them now. But over the years, I developed my writing to the point of getting my songs and jingles on TV, radio, Spotify, iTunes, and most of the major streaming services. I even had one of my songs placed in a movie. I was not gifted with extraordinary talents. I just studied with some of the industry's top professional songwriters and kept writing. The more I wrote, the better my songs became. If I can do that, so can you. Here's another way to look at it. If you were stuck on a deserted island, and the only way you could get off was to read this book and write three good songs, I guarantee that you would write three good songs. It's just a matter of learning the craft, and putting in the time. Nothing magical. If you're just starting out as a songwriter, your first few songs will be rough. That's normal! It doesn't mean you're a bad songwriter. It just means you're a beginning songwriter. If you stick with it, you'll get better. Start writing and keep writing.Even if your complete beginner you will learn how to:1. Write great lyrics2. Create awesome melodies for your lyrics3. Record your first demo4. Get your songs heard by industry pros5. Copyright your songs John Ford is the founder of the John Ford School of Voice. For 25 years, he and his staff have helped thousands of people to sing, perform, and write songs better than they ever dreamed possible. Most of these students were complete beginners when they started. Ford's students are working in clubs and recording studios, and have been featured on MTV, The Late Show, The Sundance Film Festival, The Howard Stern Show, as well as most streaming platforms and pop radio stations throughout the world.

A ROUGH TRADE and PITCHORK BOOK OF THE YEAR'A guide to rediscovering the joys of creating that we all felt as children.'NEW YORK TIMESOne of the century's most feted singer-songwriters, Wilco's Jeff Tweedy, digs deep into his own creative process to share his unique perspective about song-writing and offers a warm, accessible guide to writing your first song, championing the importance of making creativity part of your everyday life and experiencing the hope, inspiration and joy that accompanies it.'Fascinating.' ROUGH TRADE'Eloquent.' INDEPENDENT'Nourishing.' PITCHFORK'A proselytiser for the act of songcraft.' FINANCIAL TIMES'A smart, funny, relentlessly practical guide.' GQ'Delightful.' ESQUIRE'Incisigve.' VULTURE'A book written by a musician that doesn't relay autobiographical details in some form of (even loose) chronology is unusual; they typically have their own story to tell and that's it, good or bad. Writing a book that goes some way to explaining the process behind their songwriting is something else altogether. Jeff Tweedy, in How to Write One Song, achieves this.'IRISH TIMES

A New Book Aims To Help Songwriters Eliminate Writer's Block Forever With One Simple Trick. I know a girl who has already written about 200 songs, and she is only 18 years old. I was quite skeptical when I learned this. Yet when I listened to about 10 of her songs, I was impressed and even shocked because some of them were really good. As for me, I usually write about 10-20 songs a year. I began to consider the reasons for this because I am a composer with 30 years of experience, while she's just a young girl. For a while I had to quit writing songs and instead look at the art of HOW to write songs. Then, I came across an article about writing, and boom! I found it! I found the BIGGEST SECRET of SONGWRITING. I wrote nine songs in my first week. Some of them were really good. Get started right away. Download " BIGGEST SECRET of SONGWRITING ".

Funny, sweet and beautifully depicted, YOU'RE THE KIND OF GIRL I WRITE SONGS ABOUT is a startlingly fresh voice from a very talented new author. Tim is repeating the HSC, but he's more into music than studying. He is juggling playing in a band with handing in assignments and the music is winning. Mandy is taking a year off before she starts uni. Her problem is she doesn't really know what she wants to study, so she's working (sort of) and even by her own admission spends too much watching daytime TV and drinking tea with best friend Alice, with the tea being an excuse for talking - lots. Tim and Mandy meet at a gig. The attraction is immediate, but they are both so shy and self-conscious, but over time they slowly, awkwardly, move toward each, meeting by coincidence, each unsure as to how the other feels. Set in the cafes pubs and dives of Sydney's Inner West YOU'RE THE KIND OF GIRL I WRITE SONGS ABOUT is a ballad to that time of your life when you are trying to work out who you are, what it is you want and what will it take to get you there. Ages: 14+
