Thread Name: how do I write love songs?
Subject: how do I write love songs?
Hello all. I am a local performer of modern celtic music. I perform stuff in the style of the Clancys, great big sea, chieftains, spirit of the west...well you get the idea. I've written manys a song in the past but all about rowdiness and trouble making. I've been pushed by a few people to try and write more of a love song style. They'd probably still want it a little upbeat but somehing having to do with love. I just can't find it in me though. So I need help. I can't write one line without it saying "give me a pint". I would appreciate a few tips. All the best.
