GUEST,gleaner	Songwriting - what do you need? (83* d)	RE: Songwriting - what do you need?	27 Dec 06
I believe that I should call even myself out and revisit the part about inspiration. Waiting for goose bumps, laughter, or tears, I've concluded, is not a prerequisite. I believe that it's possible to take a theme, story, or even a persistent thought or hellhound, and pursue it through the songwriting process, or fail and move on. Doing it is another matter, I admit. One thing I don't like is letting rhyme, often slop rhyme, steer the content of the song. I too am tempted.
