Either way, Nick's highlighting the requirement of the song assignment means you can blame the "bum conflict" on The Police or The Clash if your song ends up being a lemon :P]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/week-48-conflicts/#post-369495 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/week-48-conflicts/#post-369472 Fri, 30 Sep 2011 20:02:00 +0000
The first one is spot on, but the Police number I think is more like "Do I give in to temptation and risk losing my friends, job and going to prison or do I restrain myself and never know what it would be like?" or something like that.

The original idea was to use one of the conflicts you found, but if you'd like to use one of your own, feel free.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Nick Torres https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/week-48-conflicts/#post-369472 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/week-48-conflicts/#post-41845 Fri, 30 Sep 2011 02:47:33 +0000 Giving some thought to "conflict in song" I've come up with

DO I STAY OR DO I GO/ The Clash: simple enough. Do I leave and be miserable because I want you but you're crazy, of do I stay and be miserable because I want you but you're crazy.

Don't stand so close to me/The Police : underage Lolita torments teacher, teacher wants to ignore her but cant.

Working to try and come up with a conflict of my own to write about. Not that I'm not conflicted, just not sure if my conflicts are song-worthy!]]> Sunday Songwriters Group katreich https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/week-48-conflicts/#post-41845
