How to prepare your story for a song: 7 questions to think through in advance
The best personal songs are born from specific details, not general words. A few minutes of preparation before filling in the brief will help you tell the story so that the lyrics are unmistakably about this person.
7 questions to think through
- Who is the song for, and what's your role in their life?
- What's the occasion, and when exactly will you present the gift?
- Which two or three real stories or memories describe this person best?
- What makes this person special: character traits, habits, favourite phrases?
- Which words, nicknames or inside jokes must be included — and what should definitely be left out?
- Which mood and style fit: a tender ballad, cheerful pop, driving rap?
- How are the names pronounced correctly, and where does the stress fall?
Why details matter more than fancy words
'You're the best' can be in a thousand songs, but 'you still make coffee the way grandma taught you' belongs to only one. It's such small things that make a song alive and make a person smile by the first verse. Don't be shy to write about something funny or unusual — that's exactly what we need.
