It's faster to learn songs by reading lyrics.
It is not easy to forget the lyrics after a long time. Lyrics further express the purpose and soul of a song. Lyrics often explain the feelings and themes expressed in a song. The quality of lyrics sometimes determines the quality of a song to a great extent, so many famous singers also invite famous lyricists to write it. At present, Lin, Fang and others are excellent lyricists.
With people's attention to lyrics, the style of lyrics will be more and more used for reference.
There are only two ways to write good lyrics. In one case, the talent is very high, and all the words written casually are good words. But this is only for a few people; Another situation is that you have mastered the skills of lyrics creation and become a top master of lyrics creation. Unfortunately, talent and enthusiasm are not enough.
If you want to write lyrics well, you must first understand that lyrics are not the same as poetry.
Lyrics and poetry have a lot in common, for example, they both have the same artistic expertise, pay attention to rhythm and fluency, sublimate emotions and match words.
The most important thing about lyrics is to pay attention to the easy-to-understand and simple language, which makes people want to sing at first sight. Poetry is another sublimation of language. You can't see, but you can feel. Secondly, the lyrics are the carrier of music. No matter how good the lyrics are, if you can't find the right music, they are like a jewel that has been lost in the light, and they are worthless. On the contrary, a good poem, even without music, can still make people read the artistic conception. If you want to write lyrics well, poetry is the foundation.
How to write the lyrics?
When you decide to write a lyric, don't do anything at first. Lin Zeng, a famous poet, used four words to express his creative feelings: no distractions. You know, the lyrics don't need fancy words. If you want to write touching lyrics in the most common and popular language, you should not start with the beauty of the language, but put all your feelings into it. Remember not to fantasize feebly.
It is difficult for people with little experience to write lyrics like stories. Lyrics and poetry pay attention to connotation, and lyrics without connotation are skinny and bloodless. In recent years, China's popular lyrics have reached the peak, and various schools have emerged in an endless stream with various forms. Pop songs are mostly about love, freedom of singing, attachment and crying. It's overwhelming No wonder patriotic music and national lyrics are very popular in the industry and are worth a hundred times.
About the beat of the lyrics.
Lyrics are more rhythmic than modern poetry. Of course, it is easy to fill in a traditional lyric with a tune, and the rhyme comes with the music. With a complete tune as the basis, rhyme will naturally come out. Generally speaking, in the absence of music, to create a traditional lyric requires the author to have a certain concept of melody and set a prototype in his mind before writing. Traditional lyrics are generally divided into ABC, AB, AB, AB and Cab formats, with seven words and one sentence. For beginners who learn to write lyrics, AB format is the easiest, followed by ACB. In the creation of lyrics, paragraph A represents the backbone, that is, the topic at the beginning, and paragraph B represents the expression, that is, the climax of lyrics. And paragraph C is usually a chorus, which can be placed at the beginning or at the transitional climax. When writing each paragraph, you might as well write it sentence by sentence, and the difference in the number of words should not be too big, otherwise it will also bring certain difficulties to composition.
Grasp the scale of rhyme.
It is not recommended to use more than two rhymes in a word. If there is no special requirement for words, it is not recommended to change rhyme. Unless you are a top poet, you can use every rhyme without any flaws and stiffly. Generally speaking, when a lyric needs to rhyme, there are several points to pay attention to: First, don't rhyme in the middle of the same paragraph. Second, the best place to rhyme is at the end of a paragraph or the beginning of the second paragraph. Third, if the last sentence at the end of the paragraph rhymes, then the next paragraph must choose another rhyme, and it can't be the same as the last rhyme.
The choice and collocation of words.
As I said before, lyrics are different from poems, and popular words are needed. How to grasp the wonderful effect of these words piled together? Personally, I think creativity is the most important point in the creative process. Good sentences in many lyrics are rare. Don't look around just because you want to write a brilliant word. This deliberately written lyrics will appear stiff. Just relax yourself, maybe there will be wonderful sentences in your ear.
Choose words. In different parts of the lyrics, the choice of words is also very particular. Especially under the premise of melody, fill in the words. We should grasp the connotation of melody and choose words with different strengths. In this way, even if you don't hear the melody, others will naturally think of the rhythm of the music.
Generally speaking, if you want to write a good hand, you need to master the necessary technical rules besides having enough talent and enthusiasm. Otherwise, words are not words and poems are not poems.
First of all, the lyrics should be four sentences 1 paragraph, so that composing music will be very comfortable, even if you don't want music.
Second, the lyrics naturally rhyme, but don't ignore the readability of the sentence because of rhyme. To do this, you need a strong ability to control words.
Third, every short song word should have the same sentence pattern, that is, the same number of words, but the climax part does not need to be the same as the previous words.
Fourth, as a scholar, you'd better make an outline first, and write clearly the contents of each paragraph.
Fifth, don't delete words that you think are beautiful or artistic, so readers will be at a loss.
Sixth, you should have true feelings, and write when you really have some feelings, otherwise it will be very painful.
You may write slowly at first, but you will get better and better if you stick to it slowly. Come on!
