New Blog!

Hey, I'm kind of turning down this blog and pointing it to a new blog! It's called Bella-Faith.blogspot.com! Enjoy!

Wish I had a Boyfriend (or girlfriend)

Great song title huh? Really hits the nail on the head! Come on, if you don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend, I bet you wish you did. (Of course, not me!) This is an awesome way to adapt to Taylor Swifts style. A friend of mine recently told me how she kinda writes it as if she was writing a journal. Well, there you go. The big secret to songwriting is acting like you're not dying to find a killer hit. If you do have a journal/diary, look in there for all those times that looked like such big deals then, and turn them into great, and easily related to songs. Real life, it's the bomb diggity for songs. Just don't focus on big downers, like economy or crime.
P.S. If your boyfriend/girlfriend dumped you, hey, you just got hit with the best theme for a song eva!
Ciao Ya'll!

Google Translate

OMG. Want to abolish boredom for at least ten minutes? Go on translate. Google.com. Type in anything, press listen button, and kapow! You'll have someone saying it for you. It sounds lame, but it's really fun. I know what your thinking, "How in the world does this relate to songwriting?" Well, I have thought up a reason. Some hip artists are switching the language of their songs to Spanish or Japanese. With Google Translate, you can so change your lyrics to a hip language.
P.S. For fun, type in "MMMMMMEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW" And no, I'm not kidding, please type it in.

Happy Independence Day!

Hey everybody! I hope you're having a wonderful fourth of July! For a fun activity, look up the lyrics for patriotic songs about America! (Such as "Uh-merica by Regina Specktor) Also, today could spark up some inspiration for your own patriotic lyrics, so try it out! You don't have to be so "honor country," you could spice it up with some country song vibes like Sugarland! Don't be afraid to be unique!
Ciao Ya'll!

My absolute favorite songwriter

Before I go on anymore in this blog, I feel I should tell you who is my idol in songwriting. Adam Young. He is the  most creative, original, and poetic songwriter I have ever heard. He has beautifully written lyrics that always mesmerize my mind to such amazing stories and thoughts. He has captured an inner creativity that most of us haven't found yet. I wish I could be like him so much. I look up to him in songwriting. If you aren't a regular listener to him, please, you have to be! I don't know who could hate him, aside from "Fireflies" playing to way to much. <3
Ciao Ya'll! 

Cosmic Love Review

 Hey ya'll my friend Addlyn (Addilini) is hanging out here at my house in between performances for our play, How To Eat Like A Child and I was telling her about my blog so I asked her what her favorite song was (lyric wise) and she answered with, "Cosmic Love" by Florence And The Machine. The song is interestingly written, giving an outer-space vibe to a love song. Not much written lyric or verses is involved, since the chorus itself is repeated four times throughout the song. MY minimum in chorus involvement is three times peroid. The song can easily relate to any love stricken person, but a little sadness is due since the "stars and the moon blew out." Overall the song is beautiful, smart, and easily sung by the Florence fan. I commend Addlyn for picking such a rare love song, not taking part in the usual, "Just wanna have fun" or "I wish you were mine" songs.
Bye Ya'll! :-)
