Well, good songs are memorized easily. If a song has a good music that our ears love to listen then we keep on singing it very often.

But, the irony is how good songs can be written? Any song is first an idea borne in the minds of people. This idea gets transformed into any good song that touches people emotionally or brings them to the dance floor. Such songs that straightaway touch other people’s hearts definitely get hit.

Writing Country Songs

Some may say that country songwriters have it easy and that country music has simple lyrics that lack the twists and turns rock songs sometimes possess, or the harshness that rap songs often symbolize.

The fact that the lyrics are simple and direct is what makes writing lyrics for country music an even more daunting process for country songwriters.

Country songs are known for straightforward lyrics, which makes it crucial not to overly simplify the song and to include a story. Ever song talks about something, an experience, a thought or a memory, and country songs are no different. They also have something to express through the lyrics.

Dealing With the First Private Audition

You’ve just heard about your first musical theater audition. You’ve not auditioned for musicals before, so you don’t know what will happen. What should you aim for?

First, let’s explore what an audition is for. For the casting panel, it’s an opportunity to see new people, or to remind themselves of familiar people. It’s a chance to see who and what is out there, to make decisions about casting, and to match up different actors to make a company. For you, it’s an opportunity to let the casting panel get to know your performing ability, hear you sing and see you in your choice of character.

Now let’s explore what the first audition is not. It’s not a ‘real’ performance. There’s no applause or feedback, the panel hasn’t paid to see you, there are no sets or lighting, and you don’t have costumes or make-up (except what you are wearing). It’s not a complete show either, as the panel will expect to watch you come in as you, then change into character in front of them. And finally, the first audition will not get you the job. That may seem odd, but Broadway and West End

The Benefits of Music With Children and Family Relationships

Majestic Combination Of Poetry, Fusion Music, And Legendary Voices

There was a time when it was believed that classical music has no place in Bollywood movies made for the mass audience. People believed that the masses would not appreciate the technicalities involved in classical music when watching movies on the big screen. However, performers like Mohammad Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar, Jagjit Singh, Mehdi Hassan, and Pankaj Udhas have successfully popularized Hindi Ghazals amongst the masses through their performances in Hindi movies.

Traditionally, Hindi Ghazals placed a lot of emphasis on the voice of the performer. Artists like Jagjit Singh moved away from the traditional approach and started emphasizing on the words, lyrics and the music accompanying the song. Today, Ghazals continue to be very popular amongst the masses. The Ghazal song in Sarfarosh was widely appreciated and was considered the best song in the super great movie.

Appreciation of such traditional songs has always been the hallmark of an intelligent and knowledgeable music connoisseur. The growth of the Indian pop industry in the late 80s and early 90s ensured greater visibility for Ghazal artists. Pankaj Udhas, Mehdi Hassan, Jagjit Singht, Hariharan, and others have released albums consisting only of Ghazal songs. These songs have become very

Best Ways to Get Custom Songs For a Video Or Film Project

If you’re a filmmaker or work with video, you know what an important role music plays in movies for capturing the audience’s attention. You also know that fitting the right song with the right scene can be a daunting task. This task, however, has become easier in recent years as music licensing becomes more available from online sources.

With the massive increase of royalty free music websites, filmmakers and others seeking background music for their movies need only do a quick search on the web to start browsing songs. Music licensing companies have large databases of music that the filmmaker can sort through based on what he or she believes would best fit their movie. One problem with this method though is the sheer amount of songs to sort through. The amount of available music online could give a headache to even the best music supervisor.

Another option could be licensing music heard on the radio or popular hits from the past. One must be careful as licensing popular or previously created music can create economic or legal barriers that stem from the copyright holders. These copyright holders can be a record label, music publisher, or

Let The Music Heal Your Soul

Do you want to live a life of more ease, happiness, balance and prosperity? Of course you do! Why is it so hard for some to move closer to these goals? The answer lies within.

Each one of us carries deep within us subconscious beliefs that contribute to our actions, and thus the actual conditions of our lives. If we believe at this level that we only deserve a certain amount of happiness, or that life is a struggle, or that we are unworthy of very much, then we act accordingly. As a therapist working with others and myself on changing the circumstances in our lives, I have come to the realization that it is imperative to modify our beliefs. And, as a musician, I have found that music can be the tool to heal your soul, change these beliefs, and thus to change your life.

We all know music can be powerful, but can one song really change your life? Absolutely. Here’s the story of one of my most recent songs.

Music has been coming through me ever since I went through some life-changing events 20 years ago. This music was a gift for

How to Make a Music Collection

One of my best possessions in life is my music. Owning a music collection is no doubt a beautiful thing. Having personal copies of your favorite blues, folk, music videos and emo songs is reassuring that you hold what you love.

But how do you go about making a personal music collection? It is quiet simple. The best way to go about it is to start early. Buying music is the best way to start your own collection. It is a good idea to always window shop before proceeding with a transaction as original music is a bit costly. It gives you the choice to own as much music as you would like. It affords you with the opportunity to own either blues, folk or indie music. The choice is yours.

Your local music store is a good place to buy music. Check it out from time to time to see what is new. Visit different shops when you have the time just to sample what is available. You might be lucky to get what you like at a very affordable price. When shopping for your collection, make sure that you are dealing with original or

Copyright Your Songs

Copyrighting your artistic works does not have to be as complicated as some people say it is. You already own the copyright to your works, but you need to collect proof in case anyone challenges you.

If so, that’s a not a problem, just make sure that you keep a note of this with your collection of proofs.

Next, you need to work out what pieces of proof you actually have in your possession. Do you have original computer files for each instrument or track? Do you have any handwritten notes for lyrics, or scratched-out, dirty and used scraps of sheet music? If you have any of these then great! You have a fantastic piece of evidence that shows the story of how your creative work developed. But all’s not lost if you only have the finished product. Even if you have the full story, how can you prove that you came up with the idea first? It might sound tricky, but

The History & Evolution of Karaoke Songs

Protect Your Songs

Many songwriters wonder if it’s really that big a deal to worry about getting songs stolen.

Why bother with copyright or song registration paperwork? My music is safe as soon as I write it down, right?

Well, yes and no.

True, actual copyright protection attaches as soon as original material is put into physical form. But…

You better be prepared to PROVE when your copyright protection started!

Songs get stolen more often than people might think. Cell phones make great secret audio recorders and if you are considering the Internet for your showcase… well you know how easy stealing things from there is!

And then there’s the more famous cases…

That’s what happened with George Harrison. His song “My Sweet Lord” was stolen from “She’s So Fine” (he admitted as much, though “by accident,” see below). Or Led Zeppelin’s lyrics on “Whole Lotta Love” coming from Willie Dixon’s “You Need Love.” Or “Dazed and Confused” taken from Jake Holmes.

And if it can happen to the biggies, it can happen to anyone…

In fact, we’ve included 2 links toward the end of this article listing songs that were actually stolen —

New Song Music

The Quest for music the way you like it, or should I say I like it has often been an uneventful, and often times disappointing task. As I am sure a lot of you reading this right now would agree. Please allow me to define “music the way you like it”.

This applies to music which rejuvenates you, that allows you to see the brighter side of things or situations (That light at the end of the tunnel). This is the stuff that changes moods (from bad to good or vice verse), that may make an insurmountable task surmountable. Music is deeply Emotional, Music is Compassionate, and Music compliments our lives.

Have you ever found yourself tapping your hand or foot to an unfamiliar melody or beat, but then you realized that you were doing it and kept tapping just the same. During those rare occasions when we hear a piece of music that we like and have not heard before, and you wonder what the name is of that particular piece, and or the artist/artists name or album.

This can be a difficult task depending on the medium in which the New Song Music

Romantic Melodies

Love is a feeling with which no one can stay untouched. It is an emotion full of abysmal bliss and empathy. Had there been no love and compassion in this world, life would have been harsh, dull and devoid of feelings. Music is the soul of the life without which it is simply bereft of rhythm, harmony and melody. Everyone falls in love and everyone loves music. Without the emotion called love music would be incomplete and without the bliss called music, love would be emotionless. Love and music are closely connected.

Since ages lovers have allured each other with the music and love songs that are full of blissful rhythms and great words that convey the different feelings and emotions. There have been innumerable songs and tracks that have touched the heart and souls of the lovers. Be it young or the old, no one can deny that one is soothed and mellowed by the romantic music. The love songs are a perfect way to tell your beloved that she or he is truly special and valuable for you.
