It's tough to answer this question with a singular answer though, because in such a creative process it's hard to determine which thing came first. A lyric may inspire a melody, which in turn suggests a chord progression, which in turn inspires a second melody line, etc. I never come up with a full set lyrics before putting it to music.]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club zaiga https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152387 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152351 Mon, 16 Jan 2006 05:07:05 +0000 Guitar Noise Songwriting Club Anonymous https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152351 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152347 Mon, 16 Jan 2006 05:02:46 +0000
If the options above aren't sufficient, let me know and I'll modify them, or just pick 'other' and then post something.

I was just curious to see how other people go about it.]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club oasisman https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152347 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152246 Sun, 15 Jan 2006 19:59:04 +0000
Example: last week I wrote a nifty melody on piano which turned into a nocturne-kinda thing. A bit later though the song turns into a country/blues and a variation of the melody gets played by a overdriven guitar. The backing piano is now done by bass and drums and the feel is much different. Tempo, time/key signature and main theme/riff/melody is still the same. But the feel is totally different.]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152246 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/writing-styles/#post-152238 Sun, 15 Jan 2006 19:24:34 +0000
Its a question like 'how do you eat your dinner , do you eat bread first or the chicken first or the drinks ?'

So its all a combination of what you have mentioned.A bit by bit moving ahead works for me...

Maybe you use one style of writing or maybe you use various styles, hence this poll.
