How hard is writing a song?

But if you want to write a truly memorable song, you need rare, hard-earned talent. The things you start writing can be embarrassing and weak, and they probably are. If you rush to be perfect from the start, you won't. Once you realize it as a writer and the tools become more natural (for example, rhymes, syllables, structure, vocabulary), you'll improve.

Writing a good song is one of the most satisfying feelings as a musician. Bass guitar, cello, a lot of musicians write a lot of good songs for a bass line, it can be done pretty easily if that's your thing. I can sit with an instrument and have feelings flowing through my fingers at times, but trying to write lyrics is a frustrating process of writing and rewriting and rewriting until I don't hate it (but I never get to a point where I like it). If you write a love song and use a cliché that includes “your heart and how hard it is to be “separated”, you won't seem like the avant-garde artist you hope to be.
