AMANDA LEE (How to write a song)

[NevisWalker1]

When you do the lyrics first, do you sing them? Or do you write them out as a poem without any music at all? Thanks, and if your get a chance, please check out my music videos on my channel.

[hyphentated]

[taverned]

Wow, that's really good stuff! I'd like to know if you could write a song without an instrument. Is it possible? Cause My electric guitar e string broke 2 years ago (which I couldn't play anyway) and I feel like I'm supposed to write songs.

u sound very good!

[aisha06baby]

BEALUTIFUL VOICE! NICE SONG... I WANNA START WRITING BUT I JUST CAN'T FIND THE RIGHT WORDS. =( I GET BLOCKED!

[PopCulture20]

@aisha06baby If you want my advice, take the ''Rebecca Black Approach''. Write something that's simple & catchy but don't get too crazy like Rebecca Black & just write about anything such as ''the light turning green after red'' lol because people are going to be extra mean to you like they are with Black.

[aisha06baby]

@PopCulture20 thank u soo much....=D

[ndrtkr258]

Hi umm I am a song writer myself and would like 2 see if maybe we can compare somethings

[ilovemypeepsvwv]

[azkeyz]

[1234shadamy]

Not a good song

[tee123iluvme]

amazing voice i try and write songs but i cant am only a kid soo

[MrKittles1123]

Good vocal melody! I was pleasantly surprised when I heard your voice. :D Also, I daresay that the guitar work was integrated perfectly with the vocal aesthetic. I've been playing for 8 years now and am a reasonably accomplished guitarist, but lately I've been focusing more on developing my writing and harmonic sensibilities. That said, I find your approach insightful and this performance admirable. Thank you for posting!

[saraokamoto]

Simply amazing. Beautiful

[MysticXrazorX]

[dhellbilly]

OMG! that song is almost as beautiful as you. I can tell you have a beatiful soul. I could put some beatiful lead guitar to that and piano. Thanks for the lesson I really feel like I learned something valuable.

[SonOfTheSystem]

WOO-OOW! Started to daydream when you started to play :) Really good ! "Into your soul now" - and you keep play the melody... Love that part! Wouldn't it be a good idea to make a musicvideo to express the song even more? :)

[TheDanielbusted]

you have a nice voice i like it

hey but at the end a drop of water came out your eye

you were crying

[Hannahand4everMiley]

You write songs the way I do! <3

[TheDinseyChannelfan]

@Hannahand4everMiley How do you write music because writing the music part is hard for me?

[Hannahand4everMiley]

@TheDinseyChannelfan You mean the melody for my songs? Well, I play piano and guitar, so I just start playing around on either of those depending on what kind of song I'm writing and when I play something I like, I write down the notes so that I can play it again and again and not forget the notes. Then I sing the song with the music, see if I like them together, and if I do, I have a song! Need anymore advice, message me, and subscribe to my channel! I'll do the same for you! <3333

[saints360row]

Holy crap, your voice is nice!

A good part of that is because there are to many voice modifications with songs now a days; Thats how they sound good, but you, you have real talent.

[SingingSquyres]

Thank... YOU!!!! :D <3

amazing voice

[kqmhballer]

This is a great video, very nice voice :)

I was wondering how you make your lyrics match well with a melody? Is it just a personal preference, or are there a certain amount of words per measure (or something more specific like that) that makes a melody good with lyrics?

Thanks :)

[chubacaman1]

my problem is that i cant find the words to express my self

[terapeach]

I hope you don't "can this song." You have a beautiful voice too:)))

[115Haley]

hey i just wanted to know if you could tell me the chords that you used? i really loved the way they sounded and i'm trying to learn how to play the guitar. if you would it would be great. thanks.

[ladytru1001]

your very good

[MoniqueShantelSongz]

yoou have an amaziing voice. :]

[nicoleavi1]

I love it whenever I wanna sing it just comes out of my mouth and I just starts singing and singing I'm kinda good at making songs when I'm in the shower it just wants me to sing... the lyrics just comes out I don't care if it doesn't make sense I only care if it sounds just right..

[Stevo7755]

You are a great singer and musician. I just got a keyboard and I am trying to learn how to make up songs and stuff. I guess I should just keep trying?

[Necrosia63]

wierd

[yamio86]

Your Amazing!!! ^_^ 

[Dust0fNation]

OKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY­YYYYYYYYYY

[musicvampire411]

there's a singer I luv named Amy Lee LOL!

[BrilliantlyBecks]

I love it. Sometimes I try to hum out things while playing guitar and sing just words. I've written lyrics and am trying to figure a melody so hard. Do you try and do the chorus first and then try and figure a melody for each verse?

[dannylovex]

I think I just fell in love with you a little bit

[vinylspinner07]

one word, WOW, sum1 get simon cowell on the phone,

[MarmaladeMarketer]

Holy crap! first video of yours I've watched, and I was just looking for help. So I was just listening to you go through it until you actually sung and your voice is like !!! Jaw-dropping. In fact my eyes are watering from the beauty right now. So needless to say I'm checking out your other videos and subscribing.

[vicckkyytorriaa3]

Great Job! Your voice is very soothing and you are great! Keep it up!

[4839295]

this is a great song - i was wondering what you do to write songs if you dont play an instrument - can you just record the melody? how does that work?

thanks!

[aser114]

Great song

[C0C0W00]

its very nice and beautiful.

[TheRenne123]

[darkon1771]

Thats an awesome song, what do you call it?

[Topwish]

like your picking style! Can u make a tutorial of it, please!

[GuitarGal4210]

i have problems with making my songs ryme to much

[123stefannnnn]

@GuitarGal4210 use more words that dont rhyme with many things! Like Abortion, and Pedophile!

[CrimesonWitcher]

@GuitarGal4210 a song doesn't need to rhyme but ti does need a meaning. Your telling a story so speak from the heart!

[Hannahand4everMiley]

@CrimesonWitcher I don't think that any of my songs rhyme because I think that they are good without rhyming, whoever thinks a song HAS to rhyme is wrong! <3

[CrimesonWitcher]

@Hannahand4everMiley you make a good point!

[elvensith001]

@Hannahand4everMiley

It is sometimes cool to rhyme, though. It helps to hold the song together, structurally.

[kira32091]

this is really good, it's just kind of a fail that the you're wearing a shirt that says mr. happy lol

[cc2mb9]

You are awesome you should go on idol
