    I doubt it. If you have played the piano and guitar for forty years, which I have, writing melodies to any lyrics instantly is actually very easy. Mine are only half decent which isn't good enough for a hit.

    Writing classic songs on the other hand is incredibly difficult, you just have to be lucky. or in the case of Elton John, very very very lucky.

    He was brought up using the chords to beautiful hymns, which partly explains how he can write such beautiful melodies.

  • rehearsed before the airing.A simple trick.

  • @tuberobotloco que sera un mater?

  • Pure talent and craft.
