CREATING LYRICAL SONG DYNAMICS - Part 2

An excerpt from Write Songs Right Now

by hit songwriter and songwriting coach Alex Forbes

CreativeSongwriter.com

AHHH, THE PAYOFF AT LAST!

By one minute in (or less!), your killer Chorus ideally delivers a breathtaking thrill of intense gratification. After the lead-up of a well-written Verse, the Chorus feels inevitable, yet not predictable. Weigh these elements of your Chorus, to see if it’s got the goods:

The clarity of your song’s message.

In your Chorus, your moment of truth has arrived, so don’t squander it. Work to discover the strongest possible way to convey your song’s deepest conviction. To continue the roller coaster metaphor, make this first peak moment steep enough and dramatic enough to take their breath away.

Your song’s Hook.

Have you condensed the essence of your song into a diamond-like nugget of lyrical truth? Does it effectively provoke thought, emotion, laughter, or spiritual uplift? A great Hook unifies the mind, the body, and the heart in one really short, sharp shock of recognition. It’s like universal shorthand, capturing a uniquely human experience in a few brief words.

A high level of stickiness.

Is your Chorus like gum on your shoe? Is the lyric singable and simple, pithy without being ponderous? Ask yourself, “Does my Chorus, and especially my hook, contain enough substance to bear repeating?” If all goes according to plan, a great Chorus is repeated for ages!

A palpable contrast with the Verse.

Bend over backwards to amplify the contrast between your songs’ sections, using different rhythms and rhyme schemes, lyrical densities and line lengths, patterns and styles of repetition, types of sentences (declarative, narrative, questions, commands, fragments, non-verbal sounds), etc. Otherwise, your listeners will get that sinking “been there, done that” feeling.

(To be Continued...) Stay tuned for the final part of this article later this week!

Magaresa (Runaway)

Stream / Listen »

Druv Kent is a BBC Radio 2 playlisted independent artist who has topped the World Indie Music charts, the Euro Indie Music charts, been on the US Top 20, is an award-winning live performer and among the world’s leading songwriters, in both English & Hindi. He burst on the scene in 2015 becoming the 1st Asia-based artist supported in 20 years by BBC Radio 2.

Kent’s songwriting strength garnered the attention of the world’s leading record producers allowing him, despite being an indie musician, to create his unique folk-pop-fusion music style combining contemporary Western folk-pop with English lyrics inspired by the Sufi mystics of his native India.

Magaresa (Runaway) is the first song off Kent’s upcoming 5-song mini-album “Love in F#” which promises to be extraordinary – with several of these songs designated for radio airplay already over the next months. His last release Don’t Burn Away was #1 on the World Indie Music Charts and on the US Top 20.

In Magaresa, Kent has collaborated with legendary Swedish producer Doug Carr (The Corrs, Ace of Base, Dr Alban) to create a retro modern, electro-funk track that blends global sounds to create a modern dance anthem; its hooky guitar grooves and thumping basslines blend with an Indian tabla and flute, giving the song its catchy, exotic feel.

Like all Kent tracks, the song is earthy, soulful and organic with rich lyrics. While the title Magaresa sounds like the name of a lover, it is actually a reversal of the names of the first four notes of an Indian classical music scale (Ma Ga Re Sa …), which emerged as a happy accident in the studio. The song epitomises that sense of fun with the high-octane, playful retro-pop music video.

“Love in F#” is a 5-song EP of which “Magaresa” (Runaway) is the 1st single. This will be Kent’s 4th EP. After his highly acclaimed debut “About Time” album in 2015, Kent released his very successful 2-song Hindi EP in 2019 and his landmark 5-song “Don’t Burn Away” EP in 2020.
