write well crafted songs and lyrics. <strong>The blog category is aimed at anyone who wants to increase the quality of their craft.<\/strong><\/p><p>A song is not just poetry set to music. A well crafted song skillfully balances the lyrics and the music so that both elements have their say. Therefore, lyricists that write dense blocks of poetry-like text need to remember to allow space for the music to have a say too.<\/p><p>Conversely, catchy music that contains lyrics with <span style=\"color: #0f16db;\"><a style=\"color: #0f16db;\" href=\"https:\/\/successmusicstudio.com\/songwriting-let-her-scream\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">weak images<\/a><\/span>, bad grammar, and a <span style=\"color: #0f16db;\"><a style=\"color: #0f16db;\" href=\"https:\/\/successmusicstudio.com\/the-plot-thickens-focusing-your-songwriting-story-ideas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">confusing or vague story<\/a><\/span> also constitutes unbalanced songwriting. The lyrics need to be of the same quality level as the music. In addition, some writers like to create obscure lyrics on purpose. People want to know what your song is about, don\u2019t make it hard for them.<\/p><p>Many songwriting books and blogs focus only on the lyrics. Why? These writers often haven\u2019t had formal musical training and don\u2019t know how to write music down. <strong>In <em>The Craft of Songwriting<\/em><\/strong> <strong>blog category, we will deal
